The hotel has a great central location. We stayed in the double room with double showers, very spacious bathroom. Great toiletries, tea,coffee and biscuits. The bed was very comfortable too. It is an older building with no AC however, there were 2 good sized fans in the room. I would not hesitate to stay here again. There is a Q car park a few minutes walk away which is secure called Shambles.

This quirky hotel made a nice chance from the predictable uniformity of those I usually book. The location could not be faulted. The double shower was a unique touch, and the whole place had something of archaic splendour about it. There weren't really any amenities I was aware of on site but, being in the middle of a shopping street, there were plenty of breakfast/ dinner options very close by. And the staff that I interacted with were all very pleasant, even though my engagements with them were limited to leaving and collecting my room key. Thanks to all who made my stay successful.

It’s a lovely property but in need of maintenance. It is in the busy centre, but sits in the quietness of a courtyard. The staff are friendly and helpful. There is no restaurant. Breakfast is packed in a bag that you can take with you, so would forego if reduces price as plenty of really nice breakfast places in York, although not many seem to open before 8:30 or 9am.

Loved the history, quirky character. Great shower. I would just suggest a small sign perpendicular to the entramce, as it is hard to spot and can be passed several times before spotting the passageway
