Reviews of York Hotels »

A nice weekend away

Advantages: Comfortable and clean
Disadvantages: Had to get wet to get to the room

...been before. The Hotel du Vin York is a new addition to the group, opening its doors in Autumn 2007 and has 44 bedrooms. I caught the train to York and the hotel was only a short walk from the station. It is situated just a short way from the race course so I am sure it is popular when the races are on. On first impressions the building from the outside was really nice with a large driveway and massive entrance door. But inside it wasn’t clear which ...
...The bathroom was an average hotel bathroom with a bath and a ‘monsoon’ shower over the bath. It is called a monsoon shower as it has a really large shower head and is really powerful, so it feels like you are showering in a monsoon! The bath was also really nice and deep. There are a selection of toiletries that you can take away with you including shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. In the bathroom there is also a bathmat provided, which I think ...

Review of Hotel du Vin & Bistro, York

The Grange, good but it should be exellent !

Advantages: Good location, nice food , wi-fi service provided
Disadvantages: Limited parking space, over priced

...I decided to try The Grange as it holds a very high reputation throughout York and is generally seen as a quality hotel. Anyway on to my stay at The grange, first impressions the building is situated within waking distance from the town centre which is handy but the building is not set back from the road so noise can become a problem in the front rooms as the road in which it is located (bootham) is a main road in York and is busy at most times.Next ...
...inadequate for a hotel of this size it has 40+ rooms with little room for more than 20 cars and also needs to allow space for people dining there but not staying in the rooms, this can get quite tricky as on our first visit our car had be moved twice in order for others to gain access. The building itself, very attractive interior and exterior in my view clearly well maintained which is a good sign, the decor throughout the hotel is quite classical ...

Review of Grange Hotel, York

For our child free weekend!

Advantages: Lots of ameneties on site with friendly and helpful staff.
Disadvantages: We have booked again and the room is £20 cheaper a night, so price vary dramatically!

...am I assumed that the Premier inn would be similar to there…..thankfully I was soooo wrong! This delightful hotel is based literally just on the wrong side of the “walls of York”, though please be warned from the main road it is a little deceptive as it has a hidden entrance for cars round the next turning and almost hidden by a taxi rank! Once you have negotiated the turn to the car park you are faced with what I can only describe as a simply ...
...web page that covers all Premier in hotels, that breakfast and such like were available from a Weatherspoons pub that always seem to be in close vicinity to the hotels themselves, this hotel had no need for such close proximity, offering everything that you could possibly want. In the reception itself there was a vending machine just for the purchase of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream, I know I nearly wet myself at this fact alone! These of course were ...

Review of Premier Travel Inn York - City Centre, York

Lovely Lodges in the heart of a forest.

Advantages: Really nice woodland, gorgeous lodge and lots of wildlife!
Disadvantages: No instructions and confusing light switches... but only small niggles really!

...have wanted to stay at Griffon Forest Holiday Lodges for a long time now. I like to book through Hoseasons various short breaks to lodges and Griffon Forest has always been one of those ones I would love to book... but it was also very expensive. The reviews on TripAdvisor made it sound amazing, but I was determined not to spend the amounts that they quote. However not so long ago I was looking at lodges for January and noticed stays at Griffon Forest ...
...the fuss is about! Griffon Forest Lodges are just on the outskirts of York, only a short 10 minute drive away from Monks Cross. They are set in the heart of 100 acres of woodland, and you can use the lodges as a relaxing break, or a base for venturing into York and the surrounding area. The Lodges There are various different types of Lodges to choose from, with lodges sleeping 2, 4 or 5 people. You can choose from the following: Gardeners ...

Review of Griffon Forest Hideaways, York

Hotel Newington - enjoyable stay!

Advantages: Good service, good value and clean
Disadvantages: Needs some modernisation, wi-fi would be good too!

This is a review of the Hotel Newington in York, a hotel situated about ten minutes walk from York city centre. The full address is 147, Mount Vale in York, and their phone number for bookings is 01904 625173. You can also book on their web-site at http://www.thenewington.co.uk/. BOOKING: I booked this hotel from a third party web-site, and was able to get very cheap rooms (20 pounds a night including breakfast) which was superb value. I did however ...
...so that rate is not the normal price! Rooms vary in price depending whether you want single or double, but rooms seem to be around sixty to eighty pounds on average. One minor quibble was that I did e-mail the hotel twice to confirm my reservation, and it wasn’t clear they had received it. I didn’t receive a response, which did worry me a little, but to be fair, this was the only real concern that I had about the hotel. BREAKFAST: The breakfast room ...
