Pros: central location, amazing breakfast, gorgeous main building, beautiful Christmas decorations. Cons: shabby room (poor quality furniture, black mold, dripping condescension), tiny room, bad view of wall/alley (we booked courtyard room but it was a side annex past bins and bike rack), loud and stern check in staff. I don’t think this hotel deserves such a high rating, but if you splash out on a fancy room then you would be happier. The terrace rooms are more modern and might also be better quality. Avoid the courtyard rooms!

The hotel was beautiful. Breakfast spectacular. Be aware - there is no locked storage area if you arrive early. When they communicate that they will store your luggage until check-in time, it is just sitting out below a set of stairs for other patrons to see and potentially remove.

This is a wonderful old building with quaint decor, a lovely staff, and very tasty breakfast. It's perfectly located being both easy to get to from the train station and a short stroll from the sites of York. There is a bit of noise from the bars, but luckily they provide ear plugs of you need them.

Great staff, beautiful room, great breakfast included, with very nice restaurant. No air conditioning and 66 steps up to your room, with no elevator. Beautiful hotel in a nice area, but you need to be very mobile to stay there.

This is a very old building and it has been lovingly and beautifully restored. Perfect location in York to stay. Easy walk from the train station and close to the York Minster and the Shambles market. Dozens of restaurants, pubs and shops around the hotel. Cannot wait to go back!

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at Judges Lodgings in York! The property itself is charming, full of character, and perfectly located for exploring the city. What really made the experience exceptional, though, was the outstanding customer service. Jacqueline went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect—from her warm welcome to her attentive care throughout our stay

The staff are tuned into accommodating their guests at the hotel and in their restaurant. I had a wonderful stay. The room was newly upgraded, had nice accessories and so very clean. Various coffees, teas and a couple sweet snacks topped it off. The one thing to be aware of is that three are lots of steps to get in and around this hotel. It is a gem otherwise.
