Excellent stay!

I brought my girlfriend here for a long weekend stay for her birthday, from start to finish it was a lovely stay, our room was clean, the bed was very comfortable, breakfast was extremely good with plenty of options, staff are all very friendly and helpful. Very close to york itself and found it easier to just Uber in rather than drive. The fat abbot was nice, didnt have food there but had a few drinks, reasonably priced, friendly, warm and welcoming. Access to the spa including pool, aromatherapy room, sauna, steam room and salt inhalation room was fantastic and the gym looked great (although not used by myself!). Overall our stay was great and id love to book another stay again in the future! Thank you!

The room was peaceful and we had a good nights sleep. The room was a little tired but was still clean. The staff were really helpful and friendly. The spa area was also relaxing, again a little tired but was still very pleasant.

Another weekend away at The Parsonage

Clean and very comfortable room..the bed was very comfy, could do with a few more milks as not enough for 2 people or could do with a small fridge. The food in the restaurant was excellent as always, the staff were very welcoming and efficient. The bar and outside seating is comfortable. The reception was quick and informative. Plenty of parking and a bus stop right outside for a trip to York. Lovely grounds, well maintained . The spa is a lovely place to relax.. This is our 5th time here, this time to celebrate my birthday and i absolutely love this place , i can't really fault it at all.. I would like to thank all the staff, including the ones behind the scenes, who make this hotel what it is..

Ok

Room 28 has something like a hand dryer or similar that opperates next door every 20-30mins all night long. Pub was busy and at 7.30pm was advised 1 hour wait for a table, so didnt eat or drink there. Good decor & location breakfast buffet was basic. Ok for the 1 night
