Excellent area. Very helpful staff. Wish we could have stayed longer

I loved everything about Judges and would stay there again in a heartbeat! I stayed in a Character Double room. It was extremely spacious, had comfy bed and pillows, a view of the Minister, and a bath to soak in. The amenities are very well thought out and made me feel cared for (fluffy robe and slippers, washcloths, complimentary sparkling water and chocolates, quality bathroom products, and eye mask and earplugs - didn't need them because it was very quiet at night). The breakfast was outstanding! Full breakfast cooked upon order and the buffet with pastries, juices, etc. They start you off with a delicious fresh squeezed juice of orange, lemon, and ginger. Staff was all wonderful. Judges was my favorite hotel during my 2 week trip through the UK!

Wonderful old property. Breakfast was great. The hotel has beautiful features. The staircase inside is gorgeous. Lots of stairs so be prepared. The bar is fun and food good. Can’t beat the location if coming by train. Town is at your door, easily one of the most walkable location. Friendly welcoming staff.

Great location. This was the second time I stayed here. Right in the heart of Old York. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff were nice and friendly. Hope to come back again.

The hotel could not be better placed. For bars,and restaurants. Absolutely great.

Beautiful hotel. Wonderful staff. Charming bar. Great food and drink. Safe. Walkable. Wish there was a fridge in room.

Great location. Main building is quirky and beautiful. We were in a room not in the main building. There was a strong smell of damp. I informed housekeeper about one bulb not working and a faulty bedside light. She insisted I must be mistaken, when she checked She reluctantly agreed I was right. Overall a pleasant stay but smell of damp and dismissive housekeeper tainted the experience

Rude staff and room was an outhouse in the courtyard behind the bar

Terrace room we booked looked out directly into diners and drinkers a few feet away so blinds kept closed. Room was clean but needed a refresh as furnishings tired, walls marked, blinds broken. Building is well located with an interesting history and the cellar bar was good. There are much better rooms elsewhere for the price

Very friendly staff, spacious clean rooms, well furnished and comfortable bed. This is definitely a do over if we return to York.

Very clean comfortable room with stylish decor and furnishings. First class breakfast and service.

Comfortable and safe stay, but this did not feel like a 5* experience. The room was beautiful however, it was cramped for 2 adults and 2 children. We had dinner at the restaurant, which was average at best however, the breakfast was very good with a varied selection. The hotel is an excellent choice for its location but just didn’t match its 5 star reputation.

Pros: central location, amazing breakfast, gorgeous main building, beautiful Christmas decorations. Cons: shabby room (poor quality furniture, black mold, dripping condescension), tiny room, bad view of wall/alley (we booked courtyard room but it was a side annex past bins and bike rack), loud and stern check in staff. I don’t think this hotel deserves such a high rating, but if you splash out on a fancy room then you would be happier. The terrace rooms are more modern and might also be better quality. Avoid the courtyard rooms!

Ideal location for a city trip. Staff very friendly. Food excellent, rooms very clean.

The room was impeccable, with lovely thoughtful touches such as a radio and bath robes. The products in the bathroom were an extremely high quality. Comfy bed and perfect locations. The staff were so friendly too. Would highly reccomend.

We loved staying at Judges Lodgings. Our visit to York was an early Christmas treat and the hotel was beautiful and we received a warm welcome. The rooms were lovely, clean, comfortable and stylish. Breakfast was first class. Will definitely come back and would highly recommend.

Brilliant room, staff were excellent

The hotel was beautiful. Breakfast spectacular. Be aware - there is no locked storage area if you arrive early. When they communicate that they will store your luggage until check-in time, it is just sitting out below a set of stairs for other patrons to see and potentially remove.

Absolutely great room, breakfast was fantastic, and the lady host Aga was perfect and very friendly. We would recommend this hotel A word of warning do not confuse this hotel with judges court, they are not the same. We look forward to returning.

Very clean, spacious room, comfy bed. Breakfast was tasty & there was a good menu choice. Hotel was centrally located which was handy.
