The George Inn

Hotel a little tired, and seems to function mainly as a locals pub. No breakfast available, but Spoons up the road took care of that. At the time if our stay there were noisy pavement works taking place outside.

Rooms are tired. There has been a refurbishment but not of bedrooms.
Our fault for not checking how things had changed since our last visit but we were disappointed that there is no food available at all, not even a continental breakfast.
There was no WiFi when we were there and it seems this was the case previously looking back at some reviews. We didn't get anything to warn us of this and when we asked if it might be back up next day the staff seemed quite disinterested.
One night we ordered a beer and hot chocolate at the bar and on checking his card payment my husband saw it was £13.25. He went back and queried this as it was so expensive but twice was assured it was correct by staff who didn't seem at all bothered. Later another member of staff came past and asked how the hot chocolate was and my husband said nice but expensive! She pointed out the beer was £6 so we said that meant we'd been charged more than £7 for a hot chocolate. She then apologised and gave us money back but it is poor that despite challenging this, it took her asking to confirm this.
Overall disappointing compared to our previous visit and we would not return

Unable to access hdmi port on TV.

Bed hard, bathroom damp and the bath takes a lifetime to fill.

Weak shower with some mould
No food

The extractor fan in the toilet/shower didn't work and there was no window. The lighting in the bathroom and by the bedsides was very dim. Some paintwork would benefit from a touch up. The view from our window was of the roof and a flat area where rubbish had gathered and would have benefitted from a general tidy.

The web site is out of date and advertised food. Hence we had to search for this. My fault that I didn’t read the small print on the booking form.
The room was very worn - stains on chairs.
The front facade looks good but inside is seedy- a drinking place only.
We were not impressed but accepted it was not expensive.

Unfortunately this hotel is really in need of an update. Everything is shabby an not in a chic way! 1st room TV did not work. Moved to a different room in which the TV worked however the rest of the room had a lot rlqrong with it. Patched up holes in the wall, damp up the wall and in the bathroom. Grotty looking grey bathroom with wobbly seat and toilet, trickle of water for the shower. TV kept moving to angle of its on accord. The list is endless. If it was £30 a night, I wouldn't have complained but the rooms really could do with an update. I was glad to leave.

The shower cubicle had mould on the ceiling. The silicone sealer was black with mould. The paper was coming off the ceiling. The place was dirty and uncomfortable. View was not the best.

Building works we didn’t know about. Builder using a hammer just before 8am but with no meaning. Whoever it was wasn’t knocking something into place, it’s was that light it wouldn’t have smashed a window so was rather annoying. Stopped about 9am.

Did not serve evening food or breakfast

The pub itself didn't have an restaurant or serve breakfast as its having a renovation, but across the road we found the Selby hub cafe that served breakfast and lunch, plus lots of bakerys with delicious pies pastys, sandwiches and cream cakes.
And their are fabulous restaurants serving a variety of dishes.
Chinese, Italian, Indian, fish and chips and Cantonese.
Takeaway food outlets as well.

Place looked a bit like it needed a bit of TLC. Shower was hot but not very powerful.

The hotel is (very) old and could use an update. At the one hand it is the charm, on the other hand it all looks sllghtly worn down. Unfortunatly they don't serve breakfast (but there are some other places to have breakfast around).

Only the bedroom window opened a little, bathroom one was painted shut with no aircon or fan it's really hot and stuffy on a night.

It's an old building and very lovely but the floors squeak with every move and the room above me must of been trying to get their steps in at 6am till 7.30am. Not the hotels fault someone was thst inconsiderate though.
