Top York City Walls Hotel Reviews

The Milner York

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely grand old dame of a hotel, stylishly renovated. A lovely space to spend a weekend. Very convenient for the centre of York. Good breakfast."

Radisson Hotel York

10/10 Excellent

"I booked this beautifully modern hotel for my husband's birthday trip to York, and it was truly magnificent! We were lucky to be placed in a stunning, very spacious room that featured a gorgeous view of York Minster. Since the stay was booked specifically for his birthday, the hotel went the extra mile by welcoming us with a handwritten birthday card and a complimentary drinks voucher for the bar right upon our arrival into our room. The overall service and upkeep during our stay were flawless. Our room was cleaned and turned over beautifully every day, and the staff consistently replenished our bottled water, which we highly appreciated. Furthermore, every team member we encountered was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we checked in until we checked out. The hotel's location is absolutely perfect for exploring. We loved being within easy walking distance of everything and everywhere in the town centre. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting York!"

Malmaison York

10/10 Excellent

"😊"

The Grand, York

10/10 Excellent

"Top notch hotel."

Hilton York

8/10 Good

"We had a two double bedded room, but all the 'useful' shelving was between the beds, this meant that there was no where for my phone and glasses on the outer side of each bed. Placing these items on the floor was hazardous as it seemed a long way down to the room floor and proved an annoyance"

Hampton by Hilton York Piccadilly

10/10 Excellent

"Location about a twenty minute walk from the station. Breakfast was ideal. No queues. Twin room Comfortable."

Hampton by Hilton York

10/10 Excellent

"Great service from the staff, very nice hotel in a good location"

"Extremely helpful staff. Located near The Shambles giving it a fantastic location . Room was clean and tidy , bed was very comfortable. Downside- over £7 for a can of Guinness"

Hotel Indigo York by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, helpful and friendly staff. Lovely room and good breakfast. Would stay again."
