The hotel offers big and comfy themed rooms with a great kitchen and shower, though the WC is small. The complimentary breakfast and luggage room add value for the price.

The hotel's location couldn't be more perfect, right in the heart of York on the lively Little Stonegate. It's ideal for those wanting to enjoy the vibrant nightlife but may get noisy during late nights on weekends.

I had a wonderful dining experience with great variety and quality, especially loved the excellent bread. However, it was a bit disappointing to find out that drinks were not included and had to be paid separately.

Staying at the hostel was a mixed experience; the central location was convenient, but noise could be an issue for light sleepers. The room was basic, lacking some essential hooks, yet cozy and within the historic city walls. The dining experience was pleasant overall, with a delicious breakfast but separate charges for drinks.

The hotel is located in a lovely part of York, directly in the heart of the city's center. The rooms above the kitchen are a bit noisy but bearable, and the 5-bed mixed room is cozy. The service is good overall, with friendly staff. The location is fantastic, near everything you could possibly want in York. The dining experience in Kennedy's Bar was enjoyable. The facilities are decent, although limited.
