...it up here!
The Marriott in York is located on Tadcaster Road and is on the very edge of the Knavesmire Racecourse, so during the racing season it gets very very busy. It has 151 rooms, since having a large extension built to accomodate extra vistors for Ascot last year. Room prices vary, but we paid £139 per room for one night, this included breakfast. There is some parking at the front of the hotel but plenty at the back. It is also set in lovely ... ...and a leisure club with swimming pool and gym. We took full advantage of the swimming pool and the beauty salon. You pay for your treatments here, swimming and the gym is free to guests.
The reception ara was clean and welcoming, and there is a terrace thing at the back, a bar and restaurant downstairs. The staff were very courteous, and we had a lovely young man help us to our room with our bags!
The bar is pricey, but no more so than any other ...

...of the famous track.
It is a 20 minute stroll into the city centre but a cab ride on return is not too expensive.
All in all we have visited the Marriott 4 times and it has that little extra something that sets it above others in the area . ...

I spent an overnight weekend stay at this hotel earlier this year for my hen night. There was a group of 9 of us and we managed to get triple rooms (2 double beds) and the reception staff were helpful as I changed my booking twice due to numbers in my party. The hotel is greatly located a short taxi ride from city centre, costing about 7 pounds. The facilities were excellent and spending most of the afternoon in the spa it was a fairly cost effective ...
