Loved the history of this pub. Very clean room, comfortable bed and breakfast was great. Would definitely recommend this place if you're visiting York as close to the river walk and not that far for all the major attractions. Plus, free onsite parking which is very hard to find in York.

Stayed 2 nights, everything you need, clean well stocked rooms. Landlord Dan explained everything & was happy to answer any questions. Short walk into York Centre either straight up the road or via the Canal 10-15 min stroll. As noted everything you need clean & well prepared rooms & good selection of beers in the bar with sky sports to watch the football. For me & the wife perfect stay.

We were welcomed with a very friendly greeting. Check in was simple,quick and we opted for breakfast for the 2 mornings. All staff were very friendly. Breakfast was amazing on both mornings, choice of cereal, fruit juice, fresh fruit and yoghurt. Full cooked English breakfast which was cooked to order so came out piping hot. Again the cook ( didn’t get her name) was very pleasant and attentive to our needs. Would highly recommend and we will return. Thank you all.

Good budget hotel to stay in York with free parking. Staff were great and really helpful. Only downside of the room was the single glaze windows. The hotel is on quite a busy road so if you are a light sleeper bring ear plugs or get a room at the back of the hotel.

Staff were okay. The toilet in the room was a saniflow. Very strange. The water in the shower was not flowing well due to the saniflow. Floor was dirty as well. I would not be going back sorry.

Inexpensive hotel in a great location and five minutes walk to the centre of York, having the added advantage of onsite car parking. Have stayed here twice now and will definitely be staying again. Far exceeded our expectations for what first appears to be a budget hotel.
