Absolutely gorgeous hotel next to the city walls with a beer garden that is very inviting. I would highly recommend the hotel. The breakfast was delicious. If you want a small hotel with history this is where to stay in York. Perfect location for an early walk on the city walls. Superb.

Beautiful property, perfect location, but we got no sleep due the noise outside from the beer garden and street. Wonderful staff but wouldn’t stay here again as getting a good night’s sleep is important to us.

Very convienient for visiting York. The property is based within the walls and is very close to York Minster which is an amazing spectacle. The rooms are very 'quirky' and it was a ghostly atmospheric experience. We stayed in room 2 which had a very narrow passageway to the bathroom. The window looked out over the cobbled streets and it was next to petergate and literally just inside the city walls. Great place to stay when visiting and reasonably priced.

A nicely decorated room above a pub serving excellent food. The room could have used an extra reading light on both nightables (not just one), and a few more hooks for hanging clothes & towels (especially in the bathroom). A very nice stay.
