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.

The century-old hotel has been renovated, and overall it's OK. The room provided was also very small. It was basically just up the stairs next to the hotel lobby and you were on the first floor. The bathroom was relatively large and the bath water was very small. It was difficult for girls to wash and dry their hair because they had so much hair. The Christmas atmosphere is very good, the bar is good, and there is York local beer. Hotel guests park for 7 pounds per day. They must inform the front desk and prepay the parking fee when checking in, and then park in the parking space, otherwise there will be a 100 pound fine! The location of the hotel is very good. It is about 2 kilometers away from the internet celebrity check-in point in the center of York Town. It takes 49 minutes to walk. It is very cheap and convenient to call Uber! Ordering takeout is also very convenient. There is a gas station and a 24-hour convenience store diagonally opposite the hotel. Two steps outside the hotel is the holiday inn, york university and tesco supermarket, which is very convenient. Looking at the map, it is also very close to an outlet. All in all, it's far from the center of town but very convenient! Lotus caramel biscuits will be prepared in the room. You can go to the front desk to get disposable slippers and toothbrushes, which are not available in the room. Possibility of late check-out at 1 o'clock. The room seemed to have two air conditioners but no remote control. It suddenly turned on and off more than a dozen times a night, which was quite scary, but after all, it was a century-old hotel. Marriott’s Platinum Ambassador Card does not include any benefits such as breakfast. Overall, staying overnight is okay after all, the price is cheap!
Middlethorpe Hall & Spa
4.6/578 Reviews
Highly recommended. Staff were first class. Lovely room overlooking the lawns. Bathroom was a bit on the small side. As noted elsewhere it was difficult to get to the shower taps due to fixed shower screen so got a blast of cold water until find correct temp. but minor issue. Extremely comfortable bed and nice linen. Whole experience was terrific and we have already booked again.
Hedley House Hotel & Apartments
4.3/567 Reviews
Very clean studio apartment with loads of hot water and very friendly hosts. Didn't try the jacuzzi. Our studio was in the basement so no view but only 10 mins walk from the city centre via Museum gardens. Cost was reasonable
Malmaison York
4.2/5104 Reviews
The room is smaller than the York Hotel. The room is in a relatively modern style, but I don't like it very much. The overall tone is darker and a bit depressing. The hotel breakfast is also average, there are few choices, sausages or other meats are very salty, maybe salt is not expensive 🙃
The Principal York
4.3/5107 Reviews
My wife and I stayed for 2 nights and were drawn in by reputation and quality of the other principal hotels across the country. I was shocked to read so many bad reviews and almost booked somewhere else as a result. It seems most of the intolerant previous residents had issues with noise, smells. food, rooms, service. We didn’t experience any of that and can only conclude that most of the reviews are either planted as false information by competitors or result of warm summer, outdoor bar or questionable views / aspect of room. We stayed in a king on 3rd floor, room 300. If you’re worried about anything just book that one! Tasteful clean decor and great views to the minster. Notable comments for James who went above and beyond to sort out a small issue with audio description hardcoded into the TV, sorted smoothly and efficiently. Great location, atmosphere and setting. We will be back with our dog next time. Don’t believe everything you read from dissolutioned guests who want a megaphone to comment on perceived issues.

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!
