This guesthouse was so fantastic I had to leave a bit of a longer review than i normally would. My wife and I love the city of York anyway so we were excited to be coming back. But walking in the front door of this gorgeous, quirky guesthouse we knew we were in for a treat. We have quirky and eclectic tastes anyway, and this guesthouse far exceeded our expectations. Firstly the room was lovely and comfortable, and we felt right at home. But it's the front 'lounge/chill out' area that is the best thing. It's like stepping into someone's funky lounge room, actually a bit like our place lol. The owner has such great tastes. Lot's of knick knacks everywhere, funky little corners to chill out in, books everywhere to read. We got a great Nepalese takeout from down the road, a bottle of wine, and spent the night together reading some of the books to each other laughing and having such a wonderful and relaxing time. The place is so comfortable, nooky and feels so nice. And super close to town. I would recommend this place to everyone, and we can't wait to stay there again. The staff in the morning we spoke to were super lovely too. I wanted to say to the owner and the staff thank you from my wife and I, and please don't change anything about this place. There are already so many generic boring places out there to stay in. This place's differences are what makes it so refreshing

    Among many other positive points: the location is extremely good, easy walking distance from the railway station and from the city centre, but as it is on the other bank of the river from the main commercial streets it's a nice quiet area. Also, it's an old-world luxury hotel, not like all these enormous modern chain hotels.

    Staymor in the city A lovely quiet boutique - style bed and breakfast 15 mins walk from York city centre ideal for couples. Lovely vintage decor , very very clean!!, all the amenities you would need ( hair drier, shampoo and conditioner, towels, TV, teas coffees etc). They catered for our personal needs ( soya milk)! Which was lovely.
