6. No.1 by GuestHouse, York

Clifton, 0.7 km from York St. John University

"The whole hotel is incredibly dirty and run down. There were hairs all over the bed and floors, stains on the walls, and peeling paint everywhere. The staff were incredibly kind and friendly, and whilst orders arrived incorrectly each day at breakfast, the food was tasty. On the Thursday night, the music from the bar was so loud until midnight, that I slept with earphones in. This is definitely not at a 4* level, I suspect there are much better options around York."

"Everything was great"

Hampton by Hilton York Piccadilly

8/10 Good

"The room was well furnished although storage space was a bit limited. There was no glass in the bathroom. The staff were helpful and friendly. They answered my questions cheerfully and patiently. The breakfast was okay. There was a good range of choice but the hot food varied in quality and temperature. The hotel is well positioned. There is good access to the city centre and the area is well served by public transport."
