St Raphael Guest House

Room was clean, staff were lovely and breakfast was good too.

Comfortable, clean room. Staff very friendly.

Lovely place to stay. Convenient to walk into the city

Great location for a walk into central York. Lovely guest house very comfortable. Will definitely return but book direct with owners.

I can only review our room named The Shambles. It was small, located in the roof space so a lot of the room had the roof slope cutting off the space available. There was tea and coffee provided but only 5 teabags on day 1 & 4 on day 2 also a minimal supply of uht milk cartons. The unit these were situated on was about 40cm high so you had to sit to brew up or bend over a long way. A small kettle took about 10mins to boil 2 cups worth of water There was one small low down bedroom type chair for two of us. The bathroom door was a sliding door with no rail at the bottom so it was impossible to open and close without it banging into the frame. The biggest problem for us was that the walls are very thin and the people in the two neighbouring rooms could be heard when going about their normal business. They disturbed us and I am sure we disturbed them. The bed and pillows were clean and comfortable. The breakfast is tasty but not plentiful, my portion of mushrooms consisted of one mushroom about 5cm in diameter, on the second day it consisted of two mushrooms! There is one DIY domestic toaster for up to 14 people! There is a full page, in great detail, in the guest information book informing guests how much they will charged if they damage anything! The guest house is well located for York's attractions being about ten minutes walk from the centre. All the staff were very friendly and helpful it is clean and warm, but it is not a cheap place, I would expect more for the money paid.

Lovely staff and breakfast

This was a nice cozy room close to the centre of York.

Recommended. Free parking. Great breakfast. Nice room. Only short 10 min walk from York centre.

Made to feel very welcome. Great location, lovely breakfast. Would stay again.

Walkable in to town, clean and roomy, good options for breakfast. Would have benefited from a message in advance of arrival with instructions for arrival but otherwise a good property.

A lovely 2 night stay. Lovely staff, lovely room, lovely breakfast and walking distance into centre. Thank you. We will definitely return

Very convenient to check in and stay

Just one night stay for the races. Parking simple and room very spacious. Highlight was the local bread available for breakfast. Top banana.

Loved waking up to the smell of freshly baking bread

너무도 훌륭하고 세심한 배려가 나타나는 아침 식사 그리고 깔끔하게 정리가 되어 있고 청결하였음.

Very friendly and clean place ..

Great place to stay within easy walking distance of the town walls. We booked the Ebor suite. It was comfortable and spacious. Staff were friendly and accomodating- especially when we needed to leave early.

Fantastic staff. Wonderful breakfast. Very nice quiet location

We had a lovely stay here. The staff were wonderful and accommating, gave us tips on places and restaurants to go to. Its only a short walk to the centre and to the riverside - extremely convenient. Breakfast was lovely with plenty of options and fresh bread each morning - 3 different kinds! Downsides - The walls were thin and on our last night we could hear the room next to us snoring. Also we had a problem with parking where all spaces were taken due to an event so we had to drive out of the centre to a pub nearby for a couple hours and wait and hope there was space when we got back which luckily there was 1 space. Overall a wondeful stay and we will be back.

Great welcome from Jamie, wonderful room (we chose the Ebor) as it gave that extra bit of space and would definitely return.
