The whole experience of coming to York and staying at the B and B from start to finish was excellent nothing was too much trouble for the staff and the food was vey good. It was good to have a vegan cooked breakfast on the menu for my friend as we always seem to struggle when we stay in places. Would certainly come back and stay if we go to York again..

Lovely and quiet, easy walking distance to centre

Lovely hotel in a nice quiet area 10 mins walk outside York centre. Nice comfortable room with a kettle, tea and coffee which was re-filled daily. The hall and stairs were a bit run-down, and a creaky door leading into the hallway.I was a bit nervous about disturbing the other guests when opening and closing it. Breakfast was very good with a small buffet of cerials and hot breakfast to order. The hot breakfast came very fast and was delicious. Some days I had to leave before 8, and could unfortunately not have breakfast, so it’s a bit of a shame that it only starts at 8 in the morning. Would definitely recommend!

York in March

Perfect location for walking into the city or to the railway station (no more than 10-15mins). Stayed in the delux double bedroom in the annex. Confused as room didn’t match the images on their website. Duty manager informed and he agreed and apologised. For a delux room would have expected more luxuries, the only benefit seemed to be size of room and en-suite. Breakfast options ok, but as for advertising continental options, only saw yoghurt
