The room was very clean and the bed was soft and extremely comfortable. The room was in the basement and there are steps but they are broken up not continuous so weren’t too problematic for some one with slight mobility issues. The music and noise from the bar ended at 11pm and we didn’t experience any noise from outside or other guests. ##### MOIRA Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Becky Sep 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Perfect stay! Amazing stay for my partners birthday - had the option to add surprise balloons and gifts into the room prior arrival- wonderful option!

Friendly and helpful. The room was small but not wholly unexpected. This hotel is great location. The bath was great. The bath candles didn’t have batteries, the shower leaked all over the floor too. The main downside is by far the noise from the bar downstairs which goes on late, so if you are a light sleeper I would avoid it. Overall however, we enjoyed it and the staff made it x ##### Gillian Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Dorne Dec 5, 2025 I was expecting great things from the room and sadly it did not deliver.

The noise from the bar/club was loud, but not bad enough to worry about. Location is amazing. Lots near by . ##### Christopher Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Jessica Nov 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort The hotel itself was different, receptionists were both extremely friendly and helpful. The room on appearance is lovely however after spending a few hours in the room, even with the lights on it was very dull, the club above was extremely noisy (even with headphones in) and the constant footsteps on the ceiling stopping us sleeping. whilst the room had aircon it wasn’t very good so the room was stifling all night. The bathroom being behind the bed with no door was very odd too. The shower was good and the slipper provided were helpful as the floor was concrete. The bed was comfy but the duvet was way too thick and between the bad aircon wasn’t used. The lights in the room that wouldn’t turn off were also very distracting and disturbed our sleep. For how much we paid for this room it was not worth it. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/a4ea49ad-f284-40c1-b346-54f44079400a-1763316985010.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4c4d02a8-2a8b-41c3-a436-e672a884cf6c-1763316984532.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jessica Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Christian May 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Interesting and eclectic hotel in an ideal location in the wonderful city of York. Parking was a challenge though, and warnings about street noise were warranted. not recommended for anyone with accessibility challenges. ##### Christian Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Philippa Sep 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quirky hotel Hotel was really nice and clean and the staff were lovely. The downside for me was the toilet. It was very exposed. I stayed with my husband of 26yrs so I'd say we know each other pretty well. That being said, i still like my visits to the loo slightly more private so to only have a piece of frosted glass to just about cover me if i leaned back, left me feeling over exposed. The other slight downside is for light sleepers in the basement rooms...they are noisy. You can hear the water through the exposed pipes so every shower, toilet flush and tap in adjacent rooms woke me up. My husband though slept like a log.....the beds are so comfy. ##### Philippa Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jill Sep 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fabulous hotel, great decor best location in York!

Excellent location for exploring the city. Beds and pillows were soo comfy. Though our room was small it had everything we needed. Other reviews mentioned noise from the bar above. We accidentally booked on a Tuesday night in January when that bar is shut and had no issues with noise. They offered to look after our bags when we checked out which was nice too. ##### Frederich Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah Sep 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Amazing staff. We were able to drop of our bags on arrival and go explore the city. Our room was ready before check in so we were called to let us know. Love that you get to pick your own whipped soap for your room. Our room was spacious with a comfy bed. The complimentary pastries in the morning were a nice touch too ##### Sarah Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Things to Do](?equalTargetTab=tab-5) - [Manor Guest House](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Manor-Guest-House.h11845385.Hotel-Information) - [Friars Rest Guest House](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Friars-Rest-Guest-House.h36992428.Hotel-Information) - [Galtres Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Galtres-Lodge-Hotel.h30987182.Hotel-Information) - [The Saddle Inn](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-The-Saddle-Inn.h44984913.Hotel-Information) - [Easterside Farm bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Easterside-Farm-Bed-Breakfast.h24940170.Hotel-Information) - [The Royal Oak Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-The-Royal-Oak-Hotel.h15811414.Hotel-Information) - [Premier Inn York City - Blossom St South](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Premier-Inn-York-City-Blossom-St-South.h11785801.Hotel-Information) - [The Black Swan - The Inn Collection Group](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-The-Black-Swan-At-Helmsley.h22461.Hotel-Information) - [The Feathers Hotel, Helmsley, North Yorkshire](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-The-Feathers-Hotel.h14889397.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel du Vin & Bistro York](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Hotel-Du-Vin-Bistro-York.h7730418.Hotel-Information) - [Burn Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Burn-Hall-Hotel.h1753368.Hotel-Information) - [Burn Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Burn-Hall-Hotel-Sure-Collection-BW.h92348786.Hotel-Information) - [Hilton York](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Hilton-York.h520445.Hotel-Information) - [New Holgate](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-New-Holgate.h100207520.Hotel-Information) - [Hotel Indigo York by IHG](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-York.h11077351.Hotel-Information) - [Clementine's Guest House](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Clementines-Town-House-Hotel.h1501378.Hotel-Information) - [Tower Guest House](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Tower-Guest-House.h3504309.Hotel-Information) - [Malmaison York](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Malmaison-York.h60606604.Hotel-Information) - [Ashbourne House](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-Ashbourne-House.h1383407.Hotel-Information) - [Doubletree by Hilton York](https://www.expedia.com/York-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-York.h430141.Hotel-Information) - [Flights to North Yorkshire](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-North-Yorkshire.d6046226.Flight-Destinations) - [North Yorkshire Vacations](https://www.expedia.com/North-Yorkshire.d6046226.Destination-Travel-Guides) - [Car rentals near North Yorkshire](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-North-Yorkshire.d6046226.Car-Rental-Destinations) - [North Yorkshire Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-North-Yorkshire.d6046226.Vacation-Rental-Destinations) - [Things to do in North Yorkshire](https://www.expedia.com/Things-To-Do-In-North-Yorkshire.d6046226.Travel-Guide-Activities)
