Not For Me

The pictures of the room were adorable. I was excited to stay in such a historic and quaint place. But pictures cannot fully encapsulate the experience. I would not stay here again! I should have listened to some of the reviews warning of the uneven floors, crooked stairs, noisy chandelier, and smelly room. I felt like I was in a haunted house.

This is what you hope for when you stay at a pub - history, beautiful location, walking distance to everything, comfortable bed, all the usual mod cons and a delicious breakfast. Of course, for anyone not familiar with staying in a pub, I want to highlight that it closes at 11pm. You will absolutely hear the noise from the pub before then, but the staff close up very efficiently and you can almost guarantee quiet from 11:10pm (which is rather rare and impressive!) The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the location and history cannot be beat - who wouldn't want to stay where a historical figure was born? And to be literally next to the Minster is an amazing bonus. Highly recommend for those comfortable with the late nights, and as you are there, you might as well join them until closing.

The hotel boasts a charming, historic setting with a generally pleasant and cosy atmosphere. While the cleanliness was adequate, our room did not align with the online photographs. You would expect for £428 for two nights, that a complimentary breakfast would be included, this was not the case which was a notable disappointment. The staff provided satisfactory service, though not exceptional. Overall, the experience did not fully meet the expectations typically associated with a 4-star establishment. Additionally, guests should be aware that food and beverage prices within the hotel are quite high. The staff recommended parking at Marygate and Bootham Gate, which would have amounted to £125 for two nights. However, we independently found parking through the JustPark app for £40, resulting in significant savings. I was expecting much better. The aesthetics were brilliant but everything else was okay at best.

Extremely disappointed poor customer service

We rang to confirm our booking whilst travelling to the hotel only to be told they did not have a record of our booking. I explained I had a receipt, money taken from my account as payment and booking confirmation but they were so unhelpful and just kept saying there was nothing they could do!

A wonderful historic experience

Wonderful stay, great City location, friendly staff, lovely room, very tastefully laid out considering the period of the building. Stay here if you want to enjoy a historic experience. The bed was so comfy and the pillows were like sleeping on clouds. Lots of tea, coffee, milk and biscuits in the room, can't fault the stay, look forward to staying here again.

Hotel was ok - old and had character which was nice and great location. We were in room 11 Guy Fawkes Cottage, the room itself was nice enough, spacious, clean and nice size bathroom but it was located in the pub courtyard. It was extremely noisy - the speaker for pub music is just outside your bedroom door so you basically have music in your room from late afternoon to late evening. There is also a covered garden room just outside your bedroom door - there was luckily no one sat in there on the first evening but on the second there was a group of people sat in there until about 10.30pm - they may as well of been in our room with us as could hear them as clear as day and they weren’t being especially loud just talking! When we booked a double room with garden view this is not what we were expecting- you had to close the curtains as soon as you were in the room because any punters in courtyard could see right in! I think there should be a warning when you book this room letting you know that you’ll constantly be able to hear the pub music and hear customers if they use any of the seating areas literally outside your bedroom door - fine for people who like to be out until late in evening but if you are like us and out all day and return earlier I advise you don’t book!

You won't get a better location for a stay in York. Overlooks York Minster and is on the very edge of York City centre. The accommodation itself is very York, with plenty of room and exceptional value for money. I've stayed at a few places in York, including The Grand and when I return I'll be coming back here.
