Nice staff but needs a refurb
Pros:

Staff were fantastic and really helpful at every turn, the location on the market square right next to the Abbey couldn't be better!

Cons:

The decor overall is dated and needs a refresh, the bathroom and carpet felt old in a way that makes you feel like it cant quite be clean, although I wouldn’t suggest that the place was unclean. There was no additional lock on the bedroom door, just the catch that your room key unlocks, so that could have been more secure.

Enjoyable stay at The George Inn
Pros:

Location next to Selby Abbey
The Inn itself is a very old building and has kept lots of features.
Room nice and spacious.
Clean bedding and towels.
Staff nice and friendly.

Cons:

Would have liked a king size bed, the room big enough to accommodate a king size bed.
Although clean bathroom and bedroom needs a little TLC

I would not recommend
Pros:

Location

Cons:

I did not sleep due to loud noise all night from air conditioning or a fan noise all night. The shower was not appealing for washing in. The room looked tired and run down and was expensive for the room, sorry.

Over priced stay.
Pros:

Next to Selby Abbey.

Cons:

Run down unclean bathroom..No contact with staff and room not serviced. The place is really tired and needs a lot of money to improve it. For over £100 a night it was rubbish. Website said brunch from 09.00 until 12.00 but staff said
kitchen didn't open until 12.00. Found a great liitle cafe for breakfast. Wi-fi was rubbish and TV kept glitching. Water from the shower head just trickled, no pressure there at all.
On a positive, good location.

Really shabby
Pros:

It is central for the town

Cons:

Really shabby and neglected. An old building requires careful conservation and refurbishment, this place could
be lovely if the owner would spend some money on it
Pretty depressing and certainly not worth what we paid.
Internet access is appalling, TV kept cutting out, shower either scalding or freezing

Pros:

The Location is perfect and the staff are friendly and helpful

Cons:

The room faced the beer garden and the bright security light made it difficult to sleep, even with the blackout curtains drawn. Room was also very warm on arrival but there was a fan provided which helped.
