The Parsonage Hotel & Spa
4.1/5103 Reviews
We stayed at the Parsonage for a couple of nights in September. We were so glad we chose this hotel as we had a fabulous stay. We were lucky enough to get a good deal from Hotels.com We had a lovely room that felt as if it was separate from the hotel, a couple of things needed updating but it did not affect our stay, the room was clean and comfy, the shower was powerful. If we needed anything we went reception and were accommodated straight away. The breakfast was lovely, plenty of it, food was replenished quickly and it was nice to see that food was taken away if it had been standing for a while. my husband is a vegetarian and the chef looked after him. The waiting on staff were challenged this day as i heard people asking for gluten free toast, decaf drinks , along with our own requests, but nothing was too much trouble. I would just like to say that there were a couple of staff members who stood out and went the extra mile to make sure everyone was happy, firstly the young lady on reception who had been in position a week , she also did some waitressing at breakfast, her personality shone through and we generally thought she wanted to do her best to help everyone enjoy their stay. There was also a chap cleaning the spa area who again went out of his way and seemed to have good judgement if people wanted a conversation or just a polite smile. All other staff members were very professional and we could not fault any of them. I read previously about other peoples bad experiences and i am not naive to realise that peoples experiences are different and that there are many members of staff, so i can only judge what we experienced. We loved the spa area , like other reviews have said , you need to take a £1 for the locker which you get back, also take a towel otherwise they are chargeable. There is a pub on site, we only had a look around so didn’t visit it but it looked lovely. We travelled to York by car which was a very easy route, but there is also a bus service near the hotel that i believe is very efficient and has a late night service too. There is a outlet mall not too far away thats worth a visit.

York Pavilion Hotel, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western
3.8/5107 Reviews
From the minute I arrived the staff were extremely polite, professional and showed a genuine desire to help. The bedrooms are of a very high standard with everything you could possibly need. The bed was extremely comfortable (to the stage that I struggled to get up the following morning). The food in the restaurant was exceptional. It is rare to find a hotel that can balance between excellent service in a relaxed yet informal setting. If you are travelling on business or pleasure the York Pavilion hotel is a must. Congratulations to all the staff you are all doing a truly fabulous job.
Robeanne House Holiday Accommodation
4.6/516 Reviews
We were a mixed group of lady cyclists plus support staying for one night. We booked Thyme Cottage, an apartment and a log cabin. This was perfect for us. The cottage has enough space for us all (7 of us) to relax and breakfast together. The space (inside and out) is much bigger than expected. All the rooms are beautifully appointed and the kitchen in the cottage is very well equipped. Very homely and comfortable. Beautiful views. Jeanne is a lovely lady - very friendly and helpful.
Ascot House
4.7/551 Reviews
None of the best hotels in the 5 cities of the UK. The style of the hotel is superb, the owner is two white-haired old people, kind and friendly, especially for the guests. The food recommended for us during the two days staying here is great! We drove in the yard, the weather was cold in the morning when the car was frozen in front of the car, after starting the car, the front window is ice, nothing can be seen, waited a few minutes and only opened a little. It’s time to wait for this to go wrong, and suddenly the old man is holding a pot of hot water on the glass, and the glass is completely transparent. The heart at the time was unusually warm. There is also a trip to Manchester Airport. The weather is snowing. The old man specifically watched the weather. He specially reminded us to set off one hour in advance. It was too late for us to advance one hour earlier, otherwise it would be blocked in the traffic of Manchester in the morning. The summer vacation plan will come again, you must still live here.
The Victoria Hotel
3.8/542 Reviews
We stayed for 3 nights in room 1 which is a double with what looked like a brand new ensuite. The room/ensuite were spotlessly clean when we arrived and fresh towels and room cleaning were offered daily although we didn't take up the offer. The bed/mattress were really comfortable and there was ample storage and hanging space. The shower was hot every time we used it with good water pressure, which I mention because I have seen previous posts that mention no hot water. The Victoria is under fairly new management and they and the bar staff were very friendly and helpful. We had the cooked breakfast each morning and it was spot on and good value for money. The rooms are above a pub so you should expect some general noise when the pub is open but the noise wasn't intrusive or a problem for us and the pub has a fantastic selection of gin which was a real bonus for me. All in all a great value for money central location with the added bonus of a car park.

York Travel Guide

Hotels in York

Weather and Best time to travel:

Correctly placed between London and Edinburg, the York city lies in North Yorkshire, England. The city has Roman roots and is a quintessential doorstep to the ancient British Experience. Inside the city, the street and walls are still rich in history with independent shops and lively eateries around. Every month the city puts up a festival and attracts millions of visitors. The spirit of living and its murky history makes this city a must-visit. Lying around 270 kilometres north of London, the city is built at the confluence of River Foss and River Ouse. It enjoys a temperate climate which means it has four distinct seasons. The city’s climate is warmer and drier as compared to the rest of Yorkshire. It is also prone to fog, frosts and cold winds in winter, spring and early summer season. York also witnesses snowfall from December to April but it easily melts.  So, keeping all of this in mind the best season to visit would be from March to May. The city looks beautiful around this time due to flowers blooming all around. But this happens to be the peak season as well, so you may find a large crowd around and expensive accommodation. Booking is recommended!
