50 stairs separate the loft from street level but the view is great. Nice views from all the windows except the one that opens onto the roof, which you might expect. The apartment isn't for tall people though and above 5'8" might be a little cramped. My wife and i now know how Quasimodo got his hump. That said I would not hold it against the nicely laid out apartment with its exposed 300 year old wood beams. A lovely place to stay right in the heart of the old city and immersed in history. Easy access to all the major attractions. In summary I would say its nice and quiet, very secure and safe and easy access to shopping, attractions and pubs. I will be back in the future..

Excellent location being so close to the minster and a short walk from the train station. A quirky, well presented flat which would suit shorter to average height people very well (I'm 5'8" and did quite a bit of head bumping!).

Great location right next to the Minster and central York Fully equipped kitchen and plenty big enough for 2 people Very good use of space but probably not suitable for someone not able to climb stairs Bit quirky having to go through Dentist but was never a problem, thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come again

Great unique and quirky loft space. Very central right opposite Minster Cathedral. The bells rang for about an hour on the Sunday midmorning, but don't know if that is a regular thing. The loft was cosy and warm. Too warm at times but you can adjust the heating. I don't think the bedroom window opens as i struggled with it,so a shame no air can get in as the bedroom can feel a little stuffy at times. The only difficulty we found was using the chubb key through the very first entrance as was very stiff to turn. On the first night out heading back, we thought we were going to be locked out. There is also a very loud noise that comes from the fuse box at times. I think it would be a good idea to have a visitors diary there to look back on other peoples experiences. I would recommend it for it's very central location, close bedroom view of the Cathedral and quirky design. Not so ideal if you are tall and can't do long stairs to the top.

Fabulous and Quirky
Fabulous location, lovely and warm, spotlessly clean and extremely well equipped. It’s called minster loft for a reason, 3 flights of stairs via a dentist reception, low beamed ceilings, and sloping floors & half a sloping bed !!! Great views but early morning wake up calls by the Minster bells and street noise. We came early December ( Fri-Mon) for the Xmas markets, which were mobbed on the Saturday. Great modern shower room & kitchen.All in all we loved it!

Minster loft was chosen for location - next to York Minster and facilities i.e. Kitchen/living room and separate bedroom. It delivered but there are some challenges. Four keys were found in the lockbox and depending on the other tenants, 2,3 or 4 keys needed to be used. Try to arrive during office hours in case help is needed. Wifi was imperfect. Stairs to the loft become very winding. The loft is not suitable to anyone over 5 foot 9 inches unless you have a hard head!

Hidden gem loft apartment
Hidden high up in the heart of the old city streets sits the Minster Loft. Deceivingly big in size, offering everything we needed for a quirky city break. Perfectly located with immediate access to the main York streets, attractions and opposite the impressive York Minster. The property included a ecent sized open plan kitchen/lounge/dining area and a snug size bedroom with plenty big enough bathroom. As you would expect from a property in the centre of a city parking options were either paid council run parking sites, but as we were staying for 3 nights and the prospect of 4 full days without really needing the car we decided to park for free on Hospital Fields Road - a good 25 minute walk but still convenient given the cost for parking. York as a place to stay is up there as one of our favourite city break locations in the UK, loads of attractions, restaurants, bars with a laid back atsmosphere.

Lovely stay
Great little apartment. Not so good if you are tall or not good with stairs. Neither of which we are so great for us .if i was to be picky I would have liked a full view mirror somewhere in the apartment. Other than that can't fault it. Had a lovely stay .

This was such a sweet, clean location tucked in the rooftop. The Loft was clean, and had all the necessities for making meals and cleaning up, and doing laundry. The view of the York Minster was amazing and just a step away from restaurants and shops.

Lovely little room in the heart of York
Lovely stay. Clean and a nice view out of the bedroom window. Limited headroom, up lots of stairs and a bit strange going through a dentists but you get used to it quickly. Step out of the front door and you are bang in the centre of York, so the location couldn’t be better. Should we return to York, we will greatly consider staying here again, and we really enjoyed our stay.

Minster Loft
The apartment was very clean, although a bit of attention to detail was needed for the cutlery and crockery. The welcome pack was really thoughtful with some lovely touches. The location was top notch and even though you had to walk through a dentist surgery to get to the apartment, this wasn’t a problem. The ceilings were low with it being a loft apartment, but you quickly got used to this. Overall, we would recommend staying here and we know we certainly will be again
