Radisson Hotel York

8/10 Good
"The hotel is close to the railway station, the room was comfortable and we had a lovely buffet breakfast. We have stayed here many times before and would recommend it. The only disappointment we had on this visit was the amount of service charge applied to our bill when we had a meal and drink in the bar. I had to place the order at the bar and carry my drinks back to our table, which was not a problem, but then I had paid service charge, which technically was just for the waiter to carry out our meals from the kitchen. Isn’t this part of their job? I don’t understand why a service charge is added to your bill, especially without asking the guest first."

Malmaison York

8/10 Good
"Room was modern, well appointed and beautiful. Fabulous powerful shower with a very easy set of buttons - large shower room. Seats to sit on (bench and chaise long) were very shallow and not comfortable- unlike the comfortable bed. Storage space was actually quite small. Very poor lighting for the fab basin area but large counter to accommodate all medicines and makeup. One sad thing - the fab-looking rooftop bar was closed on the two evenings we wanted it and that wasn’t made clear before we booked."
