Pros:

Super nice little hotel, perfect location (10 mins walk from the train station, 5 mins walk to the Minster). The staff at the reception was lovely, the room was cozy, quiet and warm. I have looked at other, slightly cheaper places in York and decided to splurge a bit and it was absolutely worth the money. 100% recommend!

Room was a tad small for our liking. Breakfast was on offer but we declined as it is sent to your room and there is no table to eat from.Also tv could have been larger.
