Cant wait to go back.

York is always amazing. The weather was hit and miss. However the Exhibition was a wonderful place to stay, relax and enjoy a tipple or two. Luke was always there to help if we needed anything and the rest of the staff treated us like they had known us forever. Breakfast was included in our stay and they never let us down. Nothing was to much for them. Cant wait till we can book again xx
