Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally placed in Fulford with a pleasant 30-minute riverside walk into York city centre. The rooms are well-equipped and come with small touches adding to our comfort, but the price could be better. The service is impeccable and the dining experience includes outstanding quality, although French products are not available. The location is fantastic for exploring York but might be slightly far for some travelers.
The hotel is ideally placed for the City Centre, with limited breakfast but well-equipped bathrooms adding to our comfort. The ensuite bathroom was a great feature, and small touches enhanced our stay. However, the dining could improve in terms of variety. A stay that offers value for money with modern amenities.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable and had all the usual facilities I needed. The ensuite bathroom was great, although the breakfast options were a bit limited. The hotel offers good value for money considering the amenities provided.
