The Milner York
I brilliant location most of the sights to see are in walking distance, gorgeous decor throughout the hotel but the odd thing could do with touching up but only if I’m being really fussy. Would definitely go back again.

Elmbank York, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
Everything was really nice and we enjoyed our stay. Rooms were nicely decorated and had a very cosy feel. Perfect pick for visiting the racecourse too. Only downer was the food lorry delivery at 5:55am outside our window that was ridiculously noisy. Went on til 6:35am and there was no chance of going ...

ibis Styles York Centre
Very nice property with nice decor. The only negative was a bit of a sewage like smell in the downstairs hallway but this seemed to be the case in quite a few areas of York. The actual property was very clean.
