Very good
No
The main hotel looked fine. But we were in the Lodge across the road !
We were in a lower ground floor room that whilst well appointed was rather dingy and right next to a noisy large air conditioning unit. So we could not open the windows
Very good and diverse breakfast options, clean and cosy rooms, great position (15 min walk from city center and train station)
.
The parking was a joke, not even in London would I have to pay that amount of money to park next to the Hotel. Literally have 6 or so spaces out the front which we never got one. Had to park in a school carpark to get charged and for them my car to be hit by a door. Really not impressed. The building didn’t have a lift, for someone with a bad back this was awful walking up and down to the top floor.
The room was beautiful as well as the main lobby and terrace.
Staff weren't very helpful or friendly especially during breakfast service. It took well over an hour for us to receive our breakfast, waiting half an hour just for someone to take our order.
Nicely set up room with a lovely bathroom. The room was very compact and so for an extended 4 night stay a little compromising. But, I had booked for a single person. Breakfast was good and a nice choice of variations for cooked options.
The choices at the bar were limited. The hotel is a little out of the city so maybe most people prefer to use the city centre pubs. But, a better offering of bottled beers and spirit options would improve the experience.
The room we had was just beautiful…… if you love the art deco style then this place is the one for you!
Honestly couldn’t fault anything and the staff throughout the hotel were SUPER helpful.
Absolutely NOTHING
With the trademark huge Elmbank bed we were very happy with our room, stay here often when in York and this is our happy place, can’t fault it
Regularly stay here when in York and this is our happy place. We have stayed in many other hotels in York over the years but this is by far the best. The beautiful art deco bar, spotless rooms and our favourite, huge comfy beds. The Elmbank always delivers, on this occassion for the first time ever we stayed in the annexe across the road, room was huge and very much in the Elmbank style. The George Walton elements make it just that little bit special 😊
Hilton now charge for the bottle of water in the room on arrival, just seems a little petty
We had a room in the courtyard and it was lovely and peaceful out there! The bar was really nice too, it's beautifully decorated.
Love the history,decor and the beautiful art nouveau glasswork.. All very comfortable. Convenient for York with approx a 20’ walk. Staff were lovely and helpful at reception, in restaurant and behind the bar. Breakfast was very good and an excellent selection. Room clean and bathroom excellent with effective air con and showers.
Breakfast was great with freshly cooked choice . We were really bowled over by the historic art nouveau interior by Walton which is worth making a special trip to see and the staff were the icing on the cake ,friendly helpful and obliging well done
