From the moment you enter Dean Court Hotel you are greeted with a warm welcome with very attentive staff. Throughout my stay I couldn’t fault them, they really looked after their guests. I wholeheartedly recommend anyone thinking of staying in York to stay at Dean Court Hotel. The food is excellent and very reasonably priced for what you get. I had some lovely food and they don’t skimp on the portion's.

The Dean Court is a charming boutique hotel that was completed in 1865 as Clergy residences for York Minster which the hotel is in the shadow of. Because you are staying in a heritage building there can be some charming challenges such as creaky floors and low clearance doorways. Despite that the positives far outweigh any challenges you may encounter. Everything is walkable from the Dean Court and there are several great pubs feet from your front door many of which offer a Sunday Roast menu. The staff are very friendly and accommodating and you will see them doing several different jobs around the hotel: valeting your rental car one day, tending bar the next. If you are spending a few days in York and want to be close to everything while staying in a historical building, this is the place.

They say to never judge a book by its cover and this also holds true for some hotels. Dean Court looked nothing if not stately in the pics and our expectations were high as we arrived in York. The good news, the location is great - close to the most wonderful shopping. Valet parking was also a treat. That said, the hotel itself feels like a lower-end motel masking inside a wonderful exterior. The first room we were shown had no windows and there are, apparantly, four of those rooms. We were moved to a room with great windows, although the only rooms with AC are the interior no-window rooms. Most of the staff were pleasant except for the lady at the front desk who never lifted her head on a few occassions we passed by. The breakfast is so, so, but with attentive servers. Great location. Great exterior. Not a great choice for us.
