We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in York. Our accommodation was excellent, a home away from home, so comfortable and spacious, in a perfect location. Previous reviews had mentioned the noise factor however with the double glazing in place, noise was not a problem. Can’t recommend Number One High Petergate highly enough. And Stays York was delightful to deal with, they made the whole process easy and we felt very welcome.

Wonderful spacious flat, very comfortable, with possibly the largest bathrooms I’ve seen in Europe. Incredibly well located, steps away from the Minster. We did not find the street noise an issue, contrary to some of the other reviews. Highly recommended, we’ll be back.

Unfortunately we thought previous reviews might have been exaggerating on the amount of noise you can hear, in particular from the 2 bedrooms at the front of the property... How wrong we were! There is a lot of noise and I'm afraid mostly from people after a night out. You can hear every part of peoples conversations. We stayed for 5 nights and were woken up by noise every night/early morning and not just a few minutes, one night was over an hour we were kept up, at around 3am (and this was a week night, not the weekend). The property itself is extremely clean, great layout, and an excellent location but that versus a good nights sleep, I'm afraid makes it not value for money in our eyes. On the value we paid, if we had to pay that again, we would not stay here or recommend it. Should the windows be rectified (one you could see a gap at the bottom of the frame) to cancel out the noise, then yes, it would be worth the money. If there are other places available that you're currently reviewing, we would suggest go for another property. One other negative (and advice if you do book this property) is the TV, this needs updating.... The connection to the wifi didn't work. Would advise to take a laptop or other device if you like watching TV (Apps/Netflix).
