Top York Castle Museum Hotel Reviews

The Queens Hotel & Victoria Cloisters

10/10 Excellent

"Four of us rented an apartment in the cloister, which was very quiet and clean. It was conveniently located, not far from the train station and just across the river from York old town. It was great to have our own kitchen facilities. The furniture in the living room was colorful but uncomfortable, springs and stuffing were shot. And the dining table was in a corner only 4 small children could have squeezed into. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms warm and clean. We enjoyed our stay."

Malmaison York

10/10 Excellent

"You know exactly what you’re getting here. Nice rooms, great location."

Hampton by Hilton York

10/10 Excellent

"I love the location of this hotel, since it’s only about 1/3 of a mile from the train station, yet very quiet. Also convenient for a walk on the city walls. The entire facility seemed very clean, including, of course, our room. Staff that I met all behaved in a helpful, responsive, professional manner. The breakfast was a well-prepared full breakfast served buffet style. The only things that were “off” during my stay were in the fitness center, where the functional trainer was missing a handle and the small Swiss ball had a dirty/stained looking surface, but I must confess that I failed to mention either of these things to anyone."

DoubleTree by Hilton York

8/10 Good

"Decent hotel. Very central if you are intending to spend time exploring York. Staff were very helpful. Breakfasts are ok. But definitely recommend the pies for an evening meal. Room was functional, tidy, bed was comfortable."

The Grand, York

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel. Would recommend"

The Milner York

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel with good facilities. Staff were friendly and helpful. I traveled to York by train, so the location of this hotel next to the station was perfect for me. I would definitely stay at this hotel again."

Hotel Indigo York by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is located in the center of the city, close to University buses and 5-7 min walk to Shambles. The property looks like new and our large room with huge shower on the 3rd floor was clean. Stuff was friendly and very helpful. We have not eaten in the restaurant, since there are a lot of options close to the hotel. Nice touch was the machine that would allow us to reserve the Uber or reserve the activities around the city."

Roomzzz York City

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location and a whole ‘apartment’ to yourself. Paid for the river view which was nice but you can’t sit on a balcony to enjoy it to the max. Great location for exploring York."

Holiday Inn York City Centre by IHG

8/10 Good

"Think the room are spacious and clean a mini fridge is definitely needed was just a bit unhappy about that room not serviced everyday and had to ask for toilet rolls as 3 of us in the room"
