Leisure trip to York.
Pros:

Great location near to the centre and near the racecourse which was the main reason for our trip.

Cons:

Room was lovely and clean just a little small and no storage for your clothes. We were on the ground floor which was ideal. We had the breakfast on one morning and it was lovely.

Ideal for a stay in York
Pros:

A lovely hotel which, despite being on a busy road, was pleasantly quiet. Conveniently located for the train station (short cut through the station car park onto Lowther Terrace) and a 20 minute walk from the city centre. It was clean and the staff were super helpful and friendly. The availability of fresh milk for tea and coffee in the room was a nice touch. Private parking is a bonus in a city location.

Cons:

The kitchen was directly below my room and became noisy as soon as the staff started cooking breakfast.

Last minute cancellation with no reason: ghosted by venue. Avoid!
Pros:

There was nothing to like as we had our booking cancelled the day before our stay. We were completely ghosted by the venue despite sending multiple messages. We were not told why the booking was cancelled. Very unprofessional.

Cons:

First time visit to York
Pros:

This lovely hotel is situated in a terrace of Regency houses set back from the road. The welcome is warm and very friendly, the whole place, including the room, is spotlessly clean. The bed was very comfortable and we slept very well, the bathroom is just right with a good walk-in shower. We stayed in room 5 (Deluxe King), a lovely spacious room on the first floor at the front of the property, overlooking the front garden. I highly recommend this place, it’s very comfortable and great value for money. We’ll be back!

Cons:

Not much! A tiny niggle: the door handle to the bathroom was detached at the top. The room was warm due to the heated towel rail in the bathroom, however this was easy to switch off which made a big difference. Other than that I can’t really fault it.

Lovely little hotel with a great atmosphere!
Pros:

Nice modern decor, clean and tidy room with good amenities (tea/coffee, hairdryer, long mirror, toiletries etc). Friendly staff and a good location if you don't want to pay the prices of central hotels.

Cons:

The room we stayed in was on the smaller side, although ideal for only a 1-2 night stay and we were actually offered an upgrade for a small fee. The room was also next to the breakfast area so noisy on a Sunday morning, pre-8am..
