The room was stunning, clean as a whistle and beautiful. Absolutely great features and the view of the minster was the cherry on top.
We had a great stay here and we loved the theme of the inn! The room was clean and well decorated and the staff are great also the food served here is delicious. The one sore spot is the shower temperature control doesn’t work so couldn’t have a warm shower all weekend.

The staff are great and the room I had was very cosy, perfect for a Jan cold stay, it’s got heating but they do provide an additional heater in case
The pub itself is very popular - kudos to the owners but it did mean I never got a chance to grab a drink there - and also the guest wifi doesn’t really work for streaming when the pub is busy
Overall as long it’s very centrally located, just 10min walk from the station - and therefore perfect for a sightseeing trip

Perfect location opposite York Minster but unfortunately we had scaffolding outside our window totally obscuring the view, we were not made aware of this and having a view of the Minster was why we booked, very disappointed.

Very noisy room, extractor fan from the kitchen nextdoor came on at 7:15 until 21:00 and was very very loud, other noises from the kitchen in the middle of the night.
I know its a very old building but I don’t think it could be more non disabled friendly if it tried. Steps in, no disabled toilets, double flights of stairs to bedroom. Big step into shower. Lots of noise from other residents and york Minster bells in the morning. Staff were great though. Food exquisite. Room very hot and no way to open windows up fully.
Fantastic rooms - beautiful building and great staff
Would highly recommend

Overall we enjoyed our stay. Not the quietest hotel but shortly after 11 pm, it became quiet enough to sleep. One very old piece of furniture (armoire) in our room had its door fall off after it was opened, hanging on by a very thin nail.

Fantastic quirky room the bed had quite a slope to it but loved the room slight grumble the shower was not over hot but perfectly acceptable. The breakfast was really good both mornings, the pub itself was very popular so not a place for a quiet drink but we will definitely go back
