There's a restaurant on site. You can enjoy a drink at the bar/lounge. WiFi is free in public spaces. An arcade/game room and multilingual staff are also featured at The Lighthorseman. Free self parking is available.
Pub located outside the city walls, a few minutes' walk from the city center. Parking available for customers. Very diligent staff. The room wasn't ready because we arrived early, but we were able to get the key right away.
Great weekend stay at The Lighthorseman, spotlessly clean room and bathroom, landlord and staff most welcoming, huge breakfast! Decent selection of food on menu. Walkable distance to the city centre but there is a bus stop about 5 minutes away and taxis are plentiful. I would definitely recommend.
Ups: centered, convenient, free parking, quiet, Victorian style, walking distance from the shambles and major attractions and some other things. The cons: open until 3 pm, some weird noises from the walls, thin walls and you can hear your neighbors, the teapot was dirty. The Ibar itâs open until 11. but at the end itâs a really nice place to stay.
Manager was rude and insulting
Room was fifthy, smelt foul, small, door lock broken, left feeling unsafe and shocked
Pub is dirty, outdated with dirty tacky carpets.
Very over priced
Avoid
A Positive point was the young male on reception, Finn who was helpful and a polite youngman
The cleanliness of this establishment was absolutely disgusting, dust all over the four poster bed frame, the bathroom blind was absolutely filthy and there were used earplugs and a plaster underneath the bedside table. The furniture was covered in stains and we were unable to use the shower properly as it was very loosely attached to the wall. Also upon arriving we were greeted by a young lad who was basically running the place alone and wasn't very professional or at all concerned with making sure we were happy.
The only positive thing I could say about this establishment is, the location isn't bad.
If you want a clean and comfortable stay in York, avoid this place!!
Staff were very helpful friendly and efficient. Very clean room, comfortable bed. Close to the main attractions, the shambles, York Minster, York Dungeon etc. Plenty of restaurants and bars close by. All in all, a great place to stay.
Very adequate for a night or two's stay in York. Good size room with connecting bathroom.. All the facilities you need. Close to the riverwalk into York, which takes around 20 minutes to city and 30 to train station. Everything works well including hot shower. Above pub's snooker room, but I didn't find noisy. Nor road noise. Bed comfortable. Simple but well-served breakfast. No fuss check-in. Very good value.
