Due to misunderstanding with booking we did not get breakfast. I assumed that this was included. When I queried this with the night staff I found the lady to be robotic in her answers and not coming up with a solution. No mention as to whether I could get this included, told to speak to the day staff who advised that the breakfast inclusion only started the day after I made my booking on the 22/03. Hotel itself was clean, room was quaint.

Great location, really close to everything you'd want to see in old York. Very comfortable bed and a modern bathroom. My only quibble - and this is more my fault than that of the hotel - is that to get up to my room, on the top floor, I had to lug a giant suitcase up several flights of a winding, narrow stairway. (York was a stop on my way to work for a month - ergo the giant suitcase). No other amenities in the hotel, so if you want a bite to eat, you'll have to go out. Not a big deal, as there are countless establishments within a 10-minute walk. For comfort and location, I should give the place 4 stars. Just wish it had a "lift"
Modern bathroom with a great shower
Very comfortable bed, under OLD beams.
This is the very narrow, quite steep, staircase.

Located in a great place right near loads of shops and restaurants. Brekkie at Bill's round the corner on 1st day then after wandering around York for a bit you're spoilt for choice on where to eat for thecrest of the stay. Veey characterful hotel like most of York. Room was lovely and all the staff very pleasant and helpful. Would definately stay again.

Comfy central hotel

We had a great stay at Judges court. The location is very central, the bed was comfy and it was a powerful shower. The paintwork was a little tired but otherwise a great place to stay.
