We had the most gorgeous stay at No.1 Guest House - if there wasn’t so much to see and do in York we would have happily just stayed in and enjoyed the hotel all weekend. The staff were amazing, especially Ellie, who made us feel so welcome and couldn’t do enough for us. We loved just sitting in the bar area with a cocktail (the rosy margarita was amazing) and looking at all the art and the cute steam train. The hotel is sooo cosy and perfect for this time of year. We will definitely be back!
Perfect location for a sightseeing trip to York, with car parking. The hotel was gorgeous, beautiful room (we had blenheim suite), huge copper bath in the bedroom (bring your own bubble bath!), super comfy bed, beautifully decorated room. Reception staff lovely and very knowledgeable of local area. Lovely bar too with friendly staff, a range of boardgames available which was fun. Breakfast room had a great Churchill theme ( brilliant top/bowler hat lighting). Would definitely recommend. Thank you for a really lovely stay.
The Novotel in York is lovely. We had a clean modern room with plenty of space. Wasn't so keen on the separate tiny toilet cubicle but it wouldn't stop us staying again. The staff weren't the friendliest at reception. The staff at the very good breakfast were much nicer. It's a bit of a walk from the centre of things although if you go along the river it's shorter and much nicer. Only trouble with this is the very large steps you have to negotiate, not ideal in a wheelchair. Plenty of space there so I don't see why there's no ramp.
Room was good, loved that the leisure centre was open till late so could get time at the pool and jacuzzi even after sight seeing. Breakfast was great, nice continental selection, and a picturesque view from the restaurant. Staff were very friendly and attentive.
A potential improvement could be the hot water control in the shower - ours was a Deluxe room with bath. The temperature was either scalding hot or ice cold - there was no in-between.
Absolutely beautiful hotel breakfast plenty of bed was to die for didn't want to get out of it downside is parking Absolutely shambles when staff was parking there and you had to go elsewhere to park which was either 22 pound or 30 pound depending which car park disabled car disnt even have badges and wasn't checked either other than that fabulous night we for free cans of water and free cookies on reception
