Needed somewhere for a one-night family stopover. This hotel offered the best value overall. The building is old but the rooms themselves are fine, refurbished to a decent level although some bits of them clearly show their age (particular highlight was the radiator thermostat snapping off in my hand, meaning the radiator was stuck on full blast). The corridors really could do with some refurbishment and brightening up though. Plenty of free parking and very convenient for central York by bus or taxi - well worth staying here if it’s significantly cheaper than a city centre hotel. Backs on to the racecourse though - would definitely NOT stay here with children on a race weekend, as it would likely be noisy and rammed. Good breakfast, loads of choice, friendly staff manning it and excellent value if eating with kids. At the time of writing it’s £12/person if booked the night before (cheaper than paying on the day) and kids eat free, so £24 for a family of 5. Busy throughout the morning, but plenty of staff keeping things moving. Not the most modern or bright hotel we’ve ever stayed in but perfectly acceptable for a 1 or 2 night break and would likely do so again.

We stayed at this hotel for a two night break. Our room on the third floor had a King sized bed, an easy chair , a round side table, a work bench and desk chair, and a roomy wardrobe. Althoughthe bathroom had a walk in shower, the room was very compact. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. There was a reasonable chioce on the bar menu, and the breakfasts were excellent. We will stay here again next time we are in the area. The hotel isn't far from the ring road, but the traffic was very heavy when we arrived at about 3.30pm on a Sunday afternoon, and getting in the correct lane was confusing (Nothing to do with the Hotel!).

Stayed for two nights on a brief visit to York. Accommodation was clean and staff friendly. Arrived fairly late but evening meal was provided and was more than adequate. Breakfast catered for everyone.Choice of hot or cold food and a vast choice. We stayed in room 422 overlooking trees. Very quiet,slept soundly. We were in a coach party and had transport into York itself but easily walkable for fit people.
