Friendly staffGreat location
TrevorGood location for a break in York
Our one night stay was very good value for money and the cooked breakfast superb.Very friendly host.Not too far to walk into the city centre along the riverside.
GillianRoom was very clean and the employees were nice. Breakfast and food served in the pub was average. It's a manageable walk to the centre. It was a little loud and cramped, but this was to be expected booking a small room…
AndrewMediocre
Clean enough.. food was of a good standard but a very dated hotel could do with freshening up furniture and fittings
AnthonyA good choice
A nice walk into town by the river was a highlight. Excellent hotel service and breakfast. Would definitely stay here again.
JillHotel good but no food service.
SarahLovely place. Big room. Lovely bathroom
