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!
