Diamonds Inn Ltd
Room was clean. Shower did not work so I did not have shower for two days. Room walls are thin so I could hear noises from other rooms including an alarm waking ne up at 5pm and noisy party goers. Came away with a migraine which has lasted for a week.

Radisson Hotel York
Bedroom was clean but needed some maintenance. Disappointing stay for the amount of money. Buffet breakfast not upto our usual stranded. No hash brown. No mushrooms. Extra charge for car parking which is not noted on the website! Ridiculous price at £20 per night. Definitely wouldn't stay again. ...

Hampton by Hilton York Piccadilly
Clean modern room. Decent size. Breakfast was average.... average quality products, powdered eggs. Parking is the only issue. 5 minute walk and not cheap at £28 overnight. Not the hotels fault for that but youd think in this modern era they'd negotiate a better rate.
