Radisson Hotel York
Rooms were nice and clean. We booked a superior room and it was a lot smaller than it looked on the photos. Not sure how small the standard rooms are but they must be tight.

Hampton by Hilton York Piccadilly
The room was spacious, but the double bed was quite low. The settee converted into a single bed, and everything was clean and tidy. The staff were excellent, but make sure you get to breakfast early to avoid disappointment.”
