I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and featured the largest freestanding bath, exceptionally comfy beds, and a lovely newly fitted bathroom. The view over York was just breathtaking. The only downside was the slightly high price for the value offered.

The hotel offers a mix of positives like a large ensuite bathroom with the largest freestanding bath and a four-poster bed, but the armchairs are threadbare. The rooms are lovely with a big bathroom, providing a comfortable stay. However, some aspects like the price could be considered for better value.

The rooms are spacious and charming, with a large ensuite bathroom featuring the largest freestanding bath. The four-poster bed adds a touch of luxury, but the threadbare armchairs could use an update. The lovely big bathroom enhances the overall relaxation during the stay.
