Super cheap hotel in York during peak times. About a 15 minute walk from York Minster up Gillygate which has some lovely retro and quirky shops. Its not luxury, but perfectly adequate. It will save you £100 quid a night staying a few minutes out of town. I loved it

The location was in a great place. It was within walking distance from the city center. There were several buses 2 blocks away. The room was very small.

Nice stay

The hotel is well located. I stayed in the annexe room at the rear of the building accessed through a small yard at the back. Recently decorated the room was clean, warm and surprisingly quiet. Bed was very comfortable, and a very spacious bathroom with nice thick towels. My only criticism would be that there is a strong smell of new carpet in the bedroom

York 2024 visit

We enjoyed our stay at the Diamond Villa hotel, for our weekend in York The room we stayed in was clean, although for the 3 of us we found it was a little difficult to move around, however we managed. Thank-you for having us

Great place

After reading some of the negative reviews we were very pleasantly surprised. Staff were helpful and attentive and actually went above and beyond. Overall the property is a little dated and and in one of our rooms the tv wasn't working properly and in another the the lightbulbs needed replacing but it's clean, the beds are comfy and it's close to town. Would definitely stay here again.

Property was perfect for the price. Clean and welcoming. Shower was nice and the bed was comfortable. I was able to get in touch with the management on arrival. Tap in the ensuite was cold and despite running for a while, did not produce hot water. The building was subject to some noise pollution and you could clearly hear other guests in other rooms. Other than that, I would book again.

I was staying in the property for four nights, spending most days sightseeing. For a double room it was a bit cramped, but for a single traveller on a tight budget perfectly sufficient. The room was equipped with an electric kettle and a mini-fridge, which was convenient for a few day stay. The room also contained a well-stocked toilet (which however needs a hook for a towel) and a shower cabin opening to a room - not what I expected but not really a problem (if you can figure out how to set water temperature). I found opening the front and room doors with a card very practical and easy. Property is in general quiet, but other guests can be heard. Most of York attractions are located within 20-30 minutes walk from the property and personally I found no need for public transport in this town, I happily hiked all over it. And a tip for future guests: on your way to York Minster you will pass Aly's Bakery: their San Sebastian cheesecake is heavenly, not to be missed!

Quite poor

We stayed here on 25/07/2025 for one night. We arrived at around 15:30, and after quite a rude interaction with the person on the phone we finally got to our room, to be met by the cleaner who was still cleaning the room despite the fact it should have been ready by 14:00 (check-in time). Once he had finished, the room was still not in great condition. Marks all over the walls, and toilet not very clean. The whole place is just very tired and could do with a refurbishment and almost felt like it was the company's "forgotten property". Also messaged them about how to pay for parking in one of the spaces but never got a reply. Location however was good, about a 20 minute walk to the city centre which was ideal. There is also a couple of convenience shops on the doorstep which is handy. All in all, it is fine for 1 night but wouldn't stay any longer.

Two stays, and both times I had to phone for the entry codes - and another guest had the same issue. I think something in the link with the new, amalgamated Hotels/Expedia/etc site is going missing. Other than that, it's a pleasant place to stay. Can be noisy at times - bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper. And if you need parking, best book it - there aren't many spaces.
