Stayed for 2 nights from 31st July - 2nd Aug, with my Niece. Grand exterior. Disappointed on first night. Loose bath tap. Crack on the bathroom wall, trim loose on shower. Stains over the carpet, which had been covered over with dustbin! Reported tap on first day. Lady said she'd log it. Woken up at 7am. After a gap of roughly 1cm of the window open, that wouldn't close. So we could hear workmen. Reported to hotel reception & asked to change rooms. Lovely lady apologised & said we could change rooms at 3pm. Much better. Nice, clean, quiet room. I thanked her for her help & again she apologised. 99 percent of staff were very friendly & helpful & very curteous. Before our journey home today, we decided to pop into the Garden Lounge. Very nicely set out. I went to the counter to order myself a beverage. The young man in question said a waiter/waitress would come to me. As it was table service. He said there's several people before you, is that ok? I said this was fine! After going back & forth around the lounge. Then starting to clear tables & ignoring me. After 45 mins, I asked politely if i could now order my coffee. He didnt apologise for keeping me waiting. When i went to the counter. The young lady was very polite & apologised for my delay. At the end of the day. It's only a cup of coffee. However I was a guest at the hotel. Very unprofessional young man! The hotel itself is nicely set out with lounges & function rooms.

Paid for a room with garden view and upgraded just before our stay but appear to have lost the garden view in the process, instead having a view of the train station roof. We won’t be back to hotel when we stay in York later this year.

We booked this hotel to be close to the Railway Station. The room allocated couldn't have been further away. On check out the receptionist tried to blame us , telling us that we Should have been aware that the room was in an Annex. At the price charged this was very poor value for money. Not impressed

OK but with issues

We got the last available parking space arriving late afternoon....obviously an issue here. Staff were great and the room was fine but the restaurant is poor. Only two not very exciting veggie main choices on a menu that was the same every night.

The property had an elegance about it that made it very charming. Everything has been kept up really well. The facilities in the room were excellent. The hotel is literally steps away from both the train and bus stations that made it ideal for our travel. The most outstanding thing about the Milner was its staff. They were extremely kind and helpful. They went out of their way to help us.

Our room at the Milner was tired with stained carpets and dated furniture. I wouldn’t recommend staying at the Milner. The pictures on their website look bright and inviting but unfortunately this is not the case. The rooms are badly in need of a make over!

Birthday stay

Upon entering the hotel, there was a very grand feel to it. Check in was quick and staff seemed friendly. The standard rooms were clean and comfortable, with a nice powerful shower. The service when asking for things was a little slow, but it must have been a very busy period. The pool and hot tub areas were decent! The breakfast was mediocre. There was a nice birthday touch with a card and a free drink. The gardens surrounding the hotel were beautiful and it is an ideal location as it has everything nearby. Overall, the hotel was a clean and comfortable stay, offering chargeable parking on site, and a pool area to relax in.

Okay hotel, but not a luxury stay by any stretch of the mind. The reception and common areas have obviously received a very nice renovation, but the room itself was ok only, and there was unfortunately an unpleasant humid smell emanating from the bathroom throughout our stay. Breakfast buffet was ok but not amazing and amenities were nothing special. On the other hand, the room was quiet and the bed was comfortable.
