Jirvik House could not have been more perfect for our trip needs. Close to the historic district and right next door to the beautiful city park, we were basically able to fall out of bed every morning and within 5 minutes we were at a lovely cafe for breakfast or hiking to our first cathedral/castle/Viking stomping grounds.

Great location. Beautiful unique hotel.

We arrived much earlier than the check in time due to our trains, and the room was available so we were able to check in before midday, but even if we couldn’t, they were happy to look after the luggage. The room was spacious, comfortable, with fantastic views over the museum gardens gates with a short pleasant stroll the the minister (gardens gate shut at 6pm so it’s an extra 1-2minutes to go around). The bed was a decent size, comfortable, warm duvet, 2 pillows each side. It was a fantastic stay and would highly recommend staying here, and we will be back.

Everything was great except the cleaning supplies they use. Very strong smell was left in the room that had a strong perfume scent. Very rough on someone with bad allergies. The bathroom could have used some paint work, but I really could not complain overall and it was a great stay. I would certainly recommend to others.

Wouldn’t recommend

Unfortunately not a great stay, room was basic, carpet was all loose (really bad trip hazard). Glass door between room and bathroom gave no privacy, window in bathroom had no blind and therefore early light woke us up. Housekeeping banging on our door at 10.30 to clean room when checkout was 11am! Not even a bottle of complimentary water

Superb location

The location of this property is perfect right in the middle of the City. There isn't parking however there is a council car park right behind the property but this will set you back £26 for 2 nights. We decided to park around a mile away and walk in, a nice 20 minute walk. Staff there are really friendly and the property is immaculate. Just a couple small things we picked up on. We were in one of the luxury double rooms in the loft space. The room was perfect other than it had a lack of ventilation. The bathroom velux window is screwed shut. You can open the window at the front of the bedroom however after 2 hot showers and my partner using her hair dryer the room gets really warm and stuffy to the point we couldnt wait to get out of the hotel for a bit of fresh air. I can't imagine how warm it must get in summer. There is a small fan but i think allowing the velux to open in the bathroom would make a big difference. Also not wanting to sound too picky but if its being listed luxury we only got one toilet roll. So the next day I had to call reception for another. It arrived really quickly however they brought just one more. I'm not sure why the bathroom doesnt have 2 or 3 for a 2 night stay. They are the cheap toilet rolls with only a few sheets so doesnt take long to get through them! Also we had to call for more milk as they weren't replenished the next day. These are just small things and we would happily stay again

The room was delightfully and tastefully modern, clean, spacious and comfortable. The location is brilliant for walking into the city core, but far enough away to be totally quiet. We loved it for our compressed day in York.

Lovely place, just don't take a car

We had a very enjoyable stay, very friendly and helpful staff and a great location close to the city centre. The only issue we had was with parking. Though the hotel has no on-site parking it can rent a limited number of places nearby. We booked one of these only to find someone else had taken our spot and we had to use the closest car park instead.
