Grays Court

Met owner, lovely lady. Very nice stay.

Super hotel bar for relaxing at the end of stay. Pretty rooms and excellent, attentive staff

The breakfast was excellent. Every single staff member we interacted with was lovely - friendly, helpful and quietly efficient. The grounds were stunning. We’d chosen one of the smaller bedrooms, but it didn’t matter as there were ample quiet and comfortable spots in the public areas. Gray’s Court is a wonderful haven right in the middle of York. A perfect location to see the city and actually very easy to get to as it is so near the city walls. Would recommend and hope to return

Great hotel! Such an interesting building steeped in history for thousand years! Very friendly, efficient and attentive service by all the staff. Fantastic!

The reception was first class. The room very clean with a wonderfully comfortable bed. The breakfast was also very good but some might say lacked much choice ie fresh fruit etc. however all the staff we encountered were friendly and very helpful. The position of the hotel in York could not have been better Our visit took place on 29th March 2026.

Everything g about the stay at Grays Court was exceptional. Fantastic service great food and bueatuf rooms and grounds. Really close to the city centre - great job team I will definitely come again and recomend to all our friends

Everything just felt right. From the atmospheric courtyard, the cozy reception area and the long gallery for drinks through to the room and bathroom - it felt very welcoming and traditional. All the staff were amazingly helpful and really made us want to come back another time.

早すぎるチェックインにも気持ちよく対応していただきました。歴史的な建物に素敵なインテリア、清潔な室内、明るくフレンドリーな接客、おいしい食事など良い点をあげればキリがありません。ヨークミンスターのすぐ近くに建っています。ホテルの犬ノーラが可愛くて癒されました。次は庭が綺麗な春か夏に連泊したいです。

The staff, food and hotel are all PERFECT.

Gorgeous hotel with beautiful rooms. The staff were fantastic, friendly and professional. We loved every minute of it and definitely want to return soon.

Exceptional hotel, beautiful rooms, library, bar and gardens. Staff were all wonderful and very attentive. Breakfast was nice and filling, excellent selection of wines.

Tranquil convenient city centre location, just inside city walls. A comfortable and beautiful listed heritage building with emclosed relaxing gardens to view or explore. Attentive staff providing friendly and excellent service throughout with unexpected personal touches. Well-stocked bar and delicious freshly prepared foods, served in the impressive long gallery or dining room, both with great views. Clean, warm and very comfortable rooms with opening sash windows, period furnishings and decor, also well-serviced and with good facilities. Quiet at night despite being only moments away from York Minster, shops and restaurants. Pre-bookable on-site parking (at extra charge) a great option. Would not hesitate to recommend or return.

Grays Court was wonderful! The building is charming and comfortable, the breakfast is delightful, the staff is welcoming and helpful. Great location to walk from to see York. Overall, an exceptional experience.

Gorgeous accommodations, delicious food, wonderful staff, and perfectly situated in town

Everything about this property is perfect. Grays Court is the most wonderful hotel we have ever experienced. Nestled behind York Minster, this historic property has all the charm of York, with a staff that is by far the most welcoming and friendly. The rooms are updated while still maintaining that historical feel. We were lucky enough to be able to book “The Mortimer” room, and it was exceptional. It offered some great views of the minster, and was spacious and very charming. The breakfast was very well done, and had a great variety to choose from. Taking a walk around the gardens is a must. They are so beautiful, and well maintained, and are enclosed by the property and the historic York City Walls. Also, this hotel manages to attract lovely, friendly guest, some of which we had the pleasure of conversing with in the beautiful bar area/galley. We also got to know the owner and their family, as well as the staff, and they are the most charming people. The hotel is within the perfect distance to the shambles, and York Minster. Please make this a stay of your if you plan to come to York. It will give you an experience you won’t forget. We will be returning to this property for years to come.

Gray’s Court is absolutely exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcomed, warm, attentive, and incredibly hospitable. You can tell they love what they do, and it shows in every detail. The atmosphere is something special, elegant without being stuffy, and steeped in history while still feeling comfortable and inviting. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to linger just a little longer. Location-wise, it’s perfect. Tucked right next to York Minster, you’re within walking distance of everything. Whether it’s a stroll along the city walls, a bite at a local pub, or exploring the Shambles, it’s all just steps away. Highly recommend Gray’s Court, it’s the kind of stay that makes a trip memorable.

We had a lovely stay! Susanna made sure that we were well taken care of. All the staff has such pride in the grounds and history. The location is close to everything. Very nice breakfasts and even a bag with water and a snack for our travels when we checked out!

An amazing place. My favorite is the garden where you can have a lovely lunch with bubbles, which is what we did. The room was incredible and the staff is just wonderful. Every time I go to York, that’s where I will stay.

The property is beautiful, historic, and close to attractions/shopping. The staff are wonderful and willing to help in any way possible
