Unholy noise at 6am
The room was decent enough, the main issue was at 6am we were awoken to clanging and clattering in the courtyard right outside our room window. No idea what they were doing but absolutely not what you want when trying to enjoy a night away. There was also a lot of noise from the foyer above and the windows themselves didn't lock, with access possible from the outside we didn't feel completely secure leaving our luggage in the room.

The staff were lovely and friendly. The hotel is hidden in an alley and difficult to find but next to a lot of shops. The location is a prime location for those staying in York. The room was cute but very small (stayed in the basement room).

We loved our stay here. It is very central but also where it is situated is quiet. The hotel has loads of history and character which we loved too. Our room had everyting that we needed, iron, hairdryer, Krups machine and also a kettle for making your own teas and coffees. Ethan who works on reception was really friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

Delightful location in walking distance from all the places we wanted to visit. Pedestrian area, so parking was a half mile hike, but most of it was through a lovely garden. Staff was very congenial and helpful.

Awesome Location but with some reservations.
The location was excellent for walking around York and seeing all of the major sites. The entrance to the hotel is a very narrow alley. Don't look for a traditional entrance to a hotel. Beware there isn't any air conditioning. Another concern is that some of the rooms back up or overlook a restaurant so there isn't privacy or quietness due to windows needing to be left open for air circulation. The staff was very helpful and we never had a concern over safety or security. There isn't an elevator and navigating stairs with large luggage is a problem. The stairs are also on a slant so walk up them with care.

York central stay - excellent
An absolutely brilliant find with this lovely quirky hotel. So much more character than a chain hotel. All staff extremely lovely and helpful and smiley. I would definitely stay here again . It’s right in the centre of town too so no long walks after a night out

Great, comfy clean hotel
The vibe of the hotel is very unique and cool with the emphasis on all the previous judges of the area. They allowed us to store our bags there while we went out shopping and sightseeing which was fantastic! The room as well was very big and extremely comfortable.

Hotel with a great location
Hotel location is excellent - centre of York. Room was very nice, comfy bed, high ceilings. No air conditioning but a fan was provided and with the window opened helped on a hot night. Bathroom (shower with no bath)was small and not in portion of the size of the room. Hotel did not offer any food and no bar but drinks can be purchased but not an issue since you are central of York. Room had no view. We have stopped here a few times and will continue to stay at this hotel.
