Positive Reviews

positive:

Convenient location.

Located almost on the doorstep of York Racecourse it is a very convenient location for racegoers. York city centre is between a ten and 20-minute walk away or the hotel is on a bus route for ease of access. There is a large on site car park for those arriving by car.

positive:

Swimming pool.

The hotel features a private swimming pool, and although small it is usually quite quiet and a great facility to have. The swimming pool is free and there is also a sauna available for a small charge.

positive:

Lovely shower.

The showers are powerful and a lovely temperature. Beds are comfortable and rooms are cleaned to a good standard.


Negative Reviews

negative:

In need of refurbishment.

Many guests feel that the hotel is in dire need of refurbishment, both in some of the public areas and also the bedrooms. There have been reports of broken toilets and other maintenance issues and because it’s quite a small hotel these are not fixed quickly enough.

negative:

Scary lift.

The lift is quite small and some guests have felt uncomfortable using it. They have also recognised that not all old buildings offer this facility, however, and therefore have been grateful for it especially those staying on higher floors or with mobility issues.

negative:

Surly staff.

There have been multiple reports of staff being rude on check in. Although a family run establishment guests have been surprised at the lack of professionalism on occasion and have been caught off guard by the way they have been spoken to. This includes feeling like they’re being “told off” for arriving too early or asking standard questions.
