My partner and I have visited York every year since we met in 2010. This was our 3rd stay at St George's Keep apartments. As usual it was superb! The facilities are second to none and provide a real home from home feel. Lesley and Jo the owners provide an excellent service, they are very responsive if you need to contact them. When we stayed in 2019 I asked if they could put a birthday balloon, cake and wine in the apartment for our arrival for my partner, this was not a problem for them and they refused to take any payment. The little touches such as welcome hamper, milk and water were still there. I know the business must have struggled during the peak of the pandemic as all hospitality did, I did think some of those little touches might be missing because of this, but it was as it always is. The bathrobes, slippers, earplugs are luxurious little touches. The goodies in the welcome hamper as well as the toiletries are from local companies, it is a great way to promote and support local businesses. The free WiFi is really easy to connect to and is quick. We took our Now TV stick and it connected to the WiFi with no issues, we got a takeaway and watched a film on Prime Video on out last rainy night. We used the pizza shop across the road opposite Clifford's tower called Ali Geez, it was lovely. I am an early riser and consider 7oclock a lie in. One morning I woke up at ten past nine! The beds are fabulous, I think I need a new bed, I woke feeling refreshed and with no aches and pains. I had to contact the owners and mentioned how comfy the bed was, Lesley told me they have just replaced all of the beds, mattresses, bedding etc. Extremely comfy, fairly firm, deep mattress, which at 5'2" I was just able to get into without a bunk up from my partner 😂. I cannot recommended these apartments enough. Fab location, amazing service and welcoming hosts.
