Overall Ratings & Reviews The Bootham Tavern - York

Perfect location for a wedding we were attending. Great breakfast and very friendly staff

The room was quite dirty, bread crumbs and other dirt were still visible on the floor, including what I think was a cut nail. Lipsticks marks on the glasses in the toilet and spoons and cups were stained. Water was still in the kettle. Also, the toilet only has a bath, there is no showerhead attached to it - which probably is shown in the picture, so my bad that I didn't check properly. And I won't be taking a bath in a hotel room that hasn't been cleaned properly. The only good thing about this place is the location. I don't think I will be back.

My first experience in

You can certainly hear the bar below if on the first floor. The Kararoke was fine the first night but the band was better the second. Watch the cab drivers first one took me on a 20£ taxi ride from the train station. Other cabs to and from were less then 10£

There is live music at weekends. Rooms were noisy until midnight

The single room was comfortable, clean and pleasant. It had tea making facilities, a hair drier and iron. The en suite was of a good size and private. The only draw back was the shower - it had little water pressure and the shower hose was a poor fit. I had a key to a separate entrance which gave me freedom to avoid the bar and flexibility to come and go.

Neat, clean, and comfortable room above a local pub. Thought it would be noisy, but surprisingly not. Very centrally located and short walk from the station and to the Minster/old city etc.

Lovely welcoming pub with excellent rooms. Even though you are above a pub and on the high street, it was silent at night. Pay and display carpark to the rear, shops and other pubs and restaurants next door. 1 min walk into the centre of York. I would stay again.

Great B&B. Cosy room, excellent breakfast and welcoming pub downstairs. Would stay again but I’d book independently as YOU, HOTELS.COM did not pass on my payment to the Bootham and YOU told the Bootham I was 2 persons and needed to be charged double for breakfasts! I had to prove I’d paid for my stay when I arrived which made me feel very uncomfortable and I hold YOU, HOTELS.COM entirely responsible and in no way am I annoyed with the Bootham B&B. They were brilliant at resolving the mix up which was 100% caused by YOU, HOTELS.COM. It’s put me off booking with YOU ever again.

Lovely pub with really nice rooms. Staff very friendly and helpful and only 5 minutes walk from York Minster

Again another lovely stay at the bootham tavern. The staff are very welcoming and pleasant. The rooms are lovely and warm and cosy. Ready to book again for next year.

Great location, everything you need in the room (water, kettle, plenty of tea and milk) Good base for seeing York.

A lovely tavern with good music and a cheerful atmosphere. The room was a good size and nicely decorated. The staff were friendly and the breakfast delicious. We've been to York a few times to stay over and this is now our favorite. Will definitely be back!

I loved how easy it was to find and close to where I had my meetings. Also the staff was super nice and the room, for a night’s stay was decent and well kept.

The room was fine, but the live music was so loud that the floors were vibrating beneath my feet when two floors up. Thankfully it stopped by midnight, but it was still disruptive. It also would’ve been nice if they could hold luggage for a bit after checkout instead of having to pay extra to store it somewhere down the street.

Great location, not too far from the train station and central to the city centre. Excellent live band on the Friday night and to top it all, a superb breakfast!

Great and friendly service. I was able to check in early. Room was small but clean and well appointed. It is an old building so access is narrow and a bit tricky but was fine for me. Overall was fine for me for one night.

No breakfast because the woman was working by herself. Check in couldn’t happen til Dillon arrived because I don’t know why.

We originally had a deluxe double however on check in realised it didn't have a shower, was a bit misleading on the hotel pages as it says 'bath or shower' so could have been a bit clearer. However we spoke to the staff and they swapped our room so it turned out fine :) The hotel is in a lovely location, very short walk to the centre so nice and peaceful

Brilliant location, near major attractions and transport options. The hotel room was lovely but a bit of a climb up the stairs! Friendly staff and great facilities
