The Elmbank although slightly on the outskirts was in a great location to explore York and in easy walking distance. The hotel itself was quite remarkable and the rooms were of a good size. We had breakfast included in our package which was lovely and the service was really good.

Nice hotel but I really think for the price that drinking water should be provided free in rooms. Also my bathroom floor didn’t look to have been cleaned well between guests. That said, I managed to park right outside and it wasn’t far to walk into the city, maybe 20 minutes.

Beautiful hotel, very good customer service. Only downside was the breakfast. We were charged £17 per person for a pretty lacklustre offering. My husband requested pancakes which were on the menu for an additional £2.50, so we were expecting a spectacular stack as a result; what he got was a couple of shop bought small pancakes to go with a very dry sausage and one rasher of bacon. Given that everything else was top-notch in the hotel, we feel they should perhaps review their breakfast and invest in some local specialities for the price charged - and definitely not charge extra for a couple of floppy pancakes.
