Easy walk from the train station even dragging a big bag. We had a very nice room and it was the only place we stayed in England or Scotland that had a fridge (minibar) in room. Easy walk to historic area of City, pubs and beautiful gardens across the street. Helpful staff.

A beautiful room with a great bath and shower - always important! Comfy bed, lovely coffee machine, snacks… fan supplied as weather was hot.
The view was of a building site which was a shame but didn’t really bother me, I was only there a night.

Location on the edge of York city center was an easy walk to all attractions. Convenient for both car (large city parking lot nearby) and rail (station just across the river). We had a large room with a very spacious bathroom, all done to satisfaction.

Very comfortable, clean, well placed for City Centre. Ideal for short stay in York. Only downsides: broadband very weak; limited - and surprisingly expensive for what it was breakfast.

Best place ive stayed in a really long time. Friendly welcome and the lady was so helpful and printed some importent documents for me. Decor of the room was so nice, like staying in someones home rather than a soul less hotel. Location was absolutely perfect and i had such a nice walk to work along the river and in to town.
5.0
We couldn’t recommend this hotel enough. Me and my fiancè stayed for 2 nights in a luxury double and the room was very good with good facilities. It’s the little nice touches such as fresh milk and a hot water bottle in the room. The bed was really comfortable and the hotel is in a good location within walking distance of the main shopping area. The staff were very helpful and friendly throughout our stay. We will definitely be returning.

I had a lovely stay at Jorvik House. The rooms are contemporary, very clean, and stylish. The hotel is on a quiet road directly across from the Museum Gardens, which makes access into York town centre very easy. The bathroom was small but perfect for me (solo traveller) with an amazing waterfall shower. My only criticism is that I found the bed ever so slightly lumpy in places but it didn't stop me from getting a decent night's sleep. Good quality bedding and pillows though. The minibar was a nice addition too. I had a great stay here, the staff are so, so kind and friendly. I only wish I'd booked to stay a bit longer!
6.0
Paint chipping off the wall, a used contact lens in the bathroom, stained blankets, paper thin walls, the door to the bathroom needs replacing. £175 was way too much, also if you advertise a king size bed you should provide it. It was only a double
5.0
We arrived much earlier than the check in time due to our trains, and the room was available so we were able to check in before midday, but even if we couldn’t, they were happy to look after the luggage. The room was spacious, comfortable, with fantastic views over the museum gardens gates with a short pleasant stroll the the minister (gardens gate shut at 6pm so it’s an extra 1-2minutes to go around). The bed was a decent size, comfortable, warm duvet, 2 pillows each side. It was a fantastic stay and would highly recommend staying here, and we will be back.

Unfortunately not a great stay, room was basic, carpet was all loose (really bad trip hazard). Glass door between room and bathroom gave no privacy, window in bathroom had no blind and therefore early light woke us up. Housekeeping banging on our door at 10.30 to clean room when checkout was 11am! Not even a bottle of complimentary water

Jirvik House could not have been more perfect for our trip needs. Close to the historic district and right next door to the beautiful city park, we were basically able to fall out of bed every morning and within 5 minutes we were at a lovely cafe for breakfast or hiking to our first cathedral/castle/Viking stomping grounds.

Really enjoyed staying at Jorvik House. It was so nicely cleaned and set up for us, and the staff were really friendly.
8.0
Everything was great except the cleaning supplies they use. Very strong smell was left in the room that had a strong perfume scent. Very rough on someone with bad allergies. The bathroom could have used some paint work, but I really could not complain overall and it was a great stay. I would certainly recommend to others.

This property was adorable and the location was perfect. I would have given it 5 stars but they gave no indication of all the stairs!! My husband had just had knee surgery and we booked the studio which was on the 4th floor. The stairs were pretty steep and there wasn't a lift. When had to change rooms to the 3rd floor, of which I'm still waiting on a credit. I wish I would've known about all the stairs. With that said, the room was super comfy and the location couldn't have been better. I would recommend this place and would stay there again (just would request a room lower).
5.0
Great location, Friendly welcome and a beautiful and clean place. All the rooms are spacious and have all amenities - coffee, sweets and cookies!!!!!
