York Family Hotel

"Very friendly staff and efficient check in. Excellent location. We had a room with an amazing view of York Minster. It was up 38 steps ( no lift to this part of the hotel) but the view made the climb worth it. Quiet despite its central location. Lovely breakfast, again with views of the Minster. Would stay again. "

"Room is not bad. But service has been dropped too much comparing with the last time I visited here. Staff is not that professional now, room service is not properly. I paid for the onsite parking, 49.5gbp per night, but can’t been guaranteed there would be a space reserved for you. But I had to pay for it. And nobody told me I need to pay for it when I was parking, only knew it when checked out. Totally, the management is a bit chaotic, service is not properly as I expected, it’s terrible. I loved this hotel when I stayed here last time. But this time, it was so disappointed. "

"Immaculately clean room and bathroom. Excellent view of the Minster and the river. Helpful,friendly staff. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice to appeal to all tastes. Limited parking but we were lucky to secure a space. Conveniently close to York centre. York is beautiful, historical and fascinating. "

"Jacuzzi was out of service but there was no mention of this by the staff or any signage, shower gel in bathroom was empty, bin in room hadn't been emptied, pillows were very uncomfortable but other than that our overall stay was ok, especially for the price we paid for the room."

"Stayed in Apartment 4 well furnished to a good std, and very clean and secure. Good area to stay near to main tourist area only 5mins from Shambles etc Plenty of eating choices nearby and bars. One negative issue was the bed which was very uncomfortable and past it's best for sleeping on. I consider bed comfort a high priority as it can impact your stay. Hotel need to look at this. "

"Standard of Housekeeping cleanliness in bathrooms well below par. Handling of complaints abysmal. Your duty manager appears to believe that because the rooms are ‘old’ customers should accept mould, scaling & improperly cleaned toilet. They did change rooms, 2nd room frankly not much improved with similar issues plus someone else’s hair on the shower wall. I asked the receptionist for compensation, refund of 1st night should have been offered as they couldn’t move my room - or clean it to an acceptable standard, and a 2nd free night as compensation for that & for the room key not working. She told me that they can’t do refunds as I booked online. She did offer me a free breakfast, which I didn’t want & which was not anppropriate compensation for the state of the bathroom. I asked her to refer my complaint to Hotel Manager. They did not acknowledge or do anything about it. Whether she couldn’t be bothered to flag my complaint or the Manager couldn’t be bothered to address it I don’t know. Neither is acceptable. Appalling service. Asked for compensation"

"Not very good, when the bar closed at 11pm the night staff on reception was serving on the bar absolutely clueless, must of had no handover of the bar couldn’t find the sparklers for the beer pumps. Should have 2 people to work on the night shift was running around like a headless chicken. Very poor service would not stay again."

"It was good. Nice property "

"Heat pump hell … couldn’t open a window.. woke up with a mouth like the bottom of a bird cage "
