Very nice owners, nice room. I was too cold the first night but they fixed it for the rest of my stay. Maybe a bit expensive, all considered, but overall a positive experience

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.

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely location. Staff were very helpful. Rooms are a little tired but they are perfectly acceptable as they are clean and comfortable. Breakfast choices are great. They are more than happy to accommodate any needs. We had a planned power cut when there and the staff were very well prepared. They gave us a powerbank, pre charged lights for our room and put heating on to ensure the rooms were warm before it went off. Couldn’t have asked for better customer service. Would definitely stay here again.

Nice staff but moldy bathroom

upper floor of a pub, but not too noisy, room is big, a bit worn down, a lot of black mold in the bathroom, breakfast is from 9 to 10, but they accommodated my request for having it at 8/8.30

Lovely, helpful people! The beds were so comfortable with amazing soft sheets. Breakfast was very hearty that one didnt ned lunch. It is above a pub but you couldnt hear the noise below. Karaoke night was so much fun. Very close to everything without being in the center. 10min walk to the train station. 2 min to york minister, the wall and hop on hop off buses. Highly recommend!

Lovely LGBTQ friendly hotel

Really well located on the doorstep of the city. Had a very friendly welcome and staff were accommodating & helpful throughout. The site said it was LGBTQ friendly and it really was as a LGBT couple celebrating a wedding anniversary we felt very comfortable here. Breakfast was really nice & a decent size. The room was a good size, clean and had a nice view of the art gallery. Evening entertainment was lively & enjoyable. Will be staying here again when we next visit York.

The staff were amazing! Even though the building was old, I didn't mind as it felt authentic and provided a nice town experience. Everything was great, and the staff were very polite. The breakfast was excellent, and there was a fantastic live music experience!

Great value, great location!

The rooms are above a pub, in a convenient location. They are alongside the York art gallery and a very short walk to the Minster. There are a number of pubs and restaurants within a short walk as you would expect. The White Horse is only around 10 minutes walk from the station on well lit busy streets. I arrived at the hotel about an hour before official check-in time, but the staff were very friendly and managed to get my room ready early while I settled down with an excellent pint (good choice of beers and hand-pulls). Food was also available, but I didn't try any. However, if it is as the good as the breakfast next day, then there should not be any complaints. The room was at the top of a flight of stairs, so be careful if you have very heavy bags. However, although it was a little tired, it was very clean, large, comfortable and warm. There was no noticeable noise from the pub or the traffic. The tea and coffee tray was well stocked, and there was plenty of storage space in the stand alone wardrobe and a separate cupboard. Despite a gap in the window, the bathroom was very warm and there were no problems with the shower. There was even a bath! Breakfast next morning was excellent, with cereals to start and a choice of simple cooked breakfasts to follow. I chose the large, but despite cancelling the toast and baked beans, it still kept me going until the evening. I will consider staying again the next time that I am in York, as the experience was excellent value

Good stay overall

Overall, a good stay, the property being within easy walking distance from the train station and the city centre. However, the mattress on the bed was probably quite old as it sank in the middle. We slept ok but it may not be too comfortable for heavy set people.

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 !!

6/10 Good

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.

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.
