The only issues: loud people passing by the front of the hotel/our room all night so mostly had to keep the window closed and misleading free drinks coupons.

A Yorkshire treat.

Room very clean / bed comfortable / Food excellent though the breakfast menu was a little reduced from what I had read online e.g. lack of fish items (smoked haddock,etc.). The staff were very friendly and helpful. A most enjoyable stay.

Visit to York

Staff are magic and valet parking is very very good. Whole place, barring the showers, needs refurbishing. The carpets definitely need a serious clean or replacement. A better area for use as a lounge by guests would be good. Outside is Noisy late at night, and early morning
