The hotel is ideally located in the heart of York, making it convenient to access restaurants, pubs, and sightseeing buses. The conservatory setting for breakfast adds charm to the stay, although some requests might be challenging to communicate. Overall, a recommended spot for exploring York's main areas.
The hotel is conveniently located in the city centre, right next to restaurants. The rooms have modern decor and are comfortable, but with only 4 walls and no view at all and old single glazed windows. The service was fantastic, though there were instances where requests were not understood. The dining experience offered delicious fish dishes. The facilities are accommodating but could use some upgrades.
