Just returned from staying at Carlton Housewith my wife for our wedding anniversary. This place is fantastic, it really is. Have stayed in York on other occasions and always tend to pay over the odds hoping money brings service. The Carlton although not cheap is fantastic value for money and provides the quality of service expected from the top end hotels. Although in the guest house category I would class this place as a hotel with the added value of that special guest house service. Arrival was greeted by friendly smile, explanation of facilities, room, parking and location. Our room was on the first floor,pleasing pastle colours nice double bed, plenty of space with modern ensuite. The breakfast was in the basement - very light and bright, tables set out perfectly, choices of fruits, juices, cereals and various cooked breakfasts. The service was first class and the full "yorkshire" was of a very high standard. The Carlton itself is a Georgian building which has been tastefully refurbished over its 4 floors retaining many original features and decorated in calming colours. There is a nice communal lounge where you can find information on eateries and other york events or just read a book. At the rear is ample parking for the 13 rooms, we left our keys and our car was moved to suit other comings and goings without any hinderance to our timetable.
Overall we would recommend The Carlton to everybody, familes, couples young or old. You are no more than 10 minutes slow walk to Micklegate Bar - One of the city walls entrances. Great place, great stay.
But remember Ssshhhhh.......don't tell anyone, lets keep it our secret!
Advantages: Small, personal and friendly. Disadvantages: None we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
We stayed at Carlton House following family reccomendation. When we arrived we were met by Mark the owner who was very welcoming and reccomended good resaurants for evening meals. All rooms are decorated to an excellent standard, with clenliness to match, beds were extremly comfortable, The staff are freindly and bubbly and will do their best to accomodate your needs. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice and was served between 7:45 and 9:15 ... ...for 9 cars which we found really useful and is very well managed by the owners. The Carlton House is a ten minute walk into York at a steady pace and York being quite small all attractions are close to hand. We will definatley be returning and reccomending to friends. ...
