Check in was quick and efficient staff helpful and polite. Room was serviceable but a little tired and basic. Easy walk to York city centre and pubs close by for eating etc

There's hardly any reference to parking space!!!!...I drove 6 hours through heavy congestion and found a place in the Guest Houses' designated space and then discovered that guests have to pay for that..and as nobody was around on site to ask how to pay was unsure if i would get a fine..so I found myself creeping out at 3.45 a.m. to put my car in a free overnight car park not 5 minutes walk from the place!!! Very bad!!! Also, checking in at 7.45pm there was nobody there to let me in and I panicked as I had to wait 5 minutes for a reply...but the woman was very kind and explained how to get in etc. The room was lovely and clean and there was plenty of tea and coffee to drink. There should be a plug next to the bed to charge the phone too. Shower was excellent! Bed was excellent too!

I couldn't fault the guest house on it's service, location and the room, although I was disappointed with two things. Firstly, the check in. As I was checking in late, the hosts had been really kind and contacted me, who then provided me the self-check in codes. Upon checking in, I can then use an electronic card to replace the codes when entering the guest house and my room. The code provided didn't work. Luckily two guests came back at the same time when I was locked out outside and on the phone with the host, who kindly helped me and ensured I got to my room. I then went back out to get food. On return, the electronic card did not work. Called the host again, who then provided the electronic code for the entrance again. That's when we found that the code provided earlier was incorrect. There was a later message to my phone to say the code was incorrect though. So overall, I had a card which did not function properly. When I finally got to bed, there was a constant noise coming from somewhere within the building. It was like a boiler or generator kind of motor engine sound. Even with my ear plugs on (which a guest shouldn't be wearing these to sleep), I was still able to hear it. It was still on when I left next morning. Needless to say, I didn't sleep well. The lack of parking was mentioned on booking. The hosts allow guests to park on their designated parking space at a cost. Considering the parking fees elsewhere in city centre, it's only reasonable.

Location OK However the property has rules that are unacceptible such as no food to be consumed in the room no breakfast or food is served by the hotel Last night the owners held a family gathering which became progressively more boisterois and the singing louder especially after 2AM I objected and the noise gradually abated thru to 2.30 AM as I had an early start!!

Great two nights stay at Diamond Guesthouse on Bishopthorpe road. Located in a nice part of York, and very close to the centre of the city. Would definitely recommend it, especially for a family looking for a budget weekend break.

Family run venue close to nice cafes and bars on Bishopthorpe Road. Good value for money, even at times of the year when some venues put their prices extortionately.

Ok. Stayed in better, stayed in worse. It’s an old building so it feels like it needs a refurb but limited in what you can do without spending mega bucks! Self checkin was ok. Not happy had to pay £7pn for parking. Owner helpful over phone

Nice big room, no staff what so ever there so it was self check in etc, it said breakfast when I booked it but alas no breakfast or staff. No hot water when I wanted to bath me and the kids, however, despite this the room was really nice and big and actually for the money I would go again. We did find a t shirt and tooth brushes that was not ours so maybe the cleaning team could be a bit more vigilant.

The people who owned it or worked there were friendly and helpful. The man carried my daughter's case up the flight of stairs. He told us where the towels were kept and other things. The shower makes an awful lot of noise and needs seeing to. Also, some wet on the floor near the sink when used which needs seeing to. Apart from that a pleasant stay with a TV and a fridge. The fridge was a great surprise and loved getting fresh milk so we could make tea. The TV was under a slope so we had to watch our heads and think there should be a warning note to say duck our heads! We were greeted warmly when we arrived and left. Freindly people.

We arrived at the guest house in a cold evening, we had no code to get in, we rang an office who couldn’t find neither my name nor my booking number, I was asked to ring another office...eventually we got a code for the door, but doing all that in a cold and noisy street was extremely unpleasant. Great lack of organisation. This GH isn’t own by a private couple as it is often but a company and every exchange is done by phone. Not pleasant at all.

Great location ,short 10 min walk to the city centre, room good size and clean , bed firm and comfy and great value. However the sink is obstructed by the shelf so when you try to have a wash you end up with more water on the floor the tv remote did not work needed batteries- I know it’s a small thing but these should be checked.Worse of all the breakfast - which If i had read previous reviews would not have stayed here - it’s continental- with limited choice ie hard boiled eggs 1 piece of meat 1 piece of cheese with bread or chocolate pastry and the guy serving appears to be disinterested.So if your happy with the above then it’s a perfect place to stay

Slept one night with daughter and grandsons aged 1 and 7 in a spacious, clean and comfortable room. The staff are really friendly and helpful. We enjoyed a delicious and relaxed continental breakfast! This was our second stay because the 7 year old asked to return, telling us that it is his favourite hotel x
