White Horse Bootham
A nice break away for a few days in York. The hotel is very central right next to Bootham Bar. Room large, cleans and staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good and large portions. The only problem was no parking on site and having to park at a nearby carpark cost £34 per day !!

No lift.. 3 flights of stairs… restaurant /pub was closed due to change in tenant. Local parking was 38 pound per day! and extremely noisy outside until well after midnight and started again at 6 am due to traffic.

City Centre Pub
Basic room. No information in the room. Wi-Fi works but is only 15 Mbps. Staff very nice. Breakfast between 9 and 10am. Not bad for the city centre. We didn’t notice any adverse noise quite peaceful really.

This hotel is in a perfect spot just out of York as to be quiet but close enough to walk into York. It has a relaxed friendly feel with it and nothing is to much trouble for the staff, I would not hesitate to recommend it and will definitely stay there again when we next ho to York.

Should have on the website that they have music in the pub that you can hear in the rooms.
Other than the noise we had a good experience. People were very friendly.
