We like the rooms, the facilities and also the breakfasts
The 4-star Principal York, formerly The Royal York Hotel, is set in quiet gardens, with views into the new Garden Room overlooking York Minster.

The room was a really good size and the bed was very comfortable. Did not stay for Breakfast as we were moving on to another location so can't comment.
So close to everything we had come to see - Railway Museum, York Minster and the shopping - no car needed
The bar was very busy so we relaxed in the Garden room - very peaceful and quiet even with a wedding going on.
The gardens are beautiful
Situated on the banks of the River Ouse, The Queens Hotel is ideally located for the many shops, restaurants and bars that the centre of York has to offer.
Ideally situated, family-run Wheatland Lodge Hotel offers good value accommodation, just a 5-minute walk from York Train Station and a 10-minute walk from York's historic centre.

Staff were very polite and helpful - couldn't fault them.
A boutique Art Nouveau hotel in historic York. Minutes from the heart of the city, overlooking the Knavesmire Strays, lies the Elmbank Hotel, a unique 19th-century mansion with a rich history.

Just a 15 minute stroll into the city centre, staff were so friendly and helpful. The room was clean, with all amenities provided (including iron and hairdryer). The decoration was lovely- felt really expensive despite it being so reasonably priced! The shower was excellent too- no problems with water pressure like you sometimes get. Would recommend to anyone!

Great location for a stay within striking distance to York & outlet shopping centre. Bus runs every 15mins direct through village to both locations, literally takes no more than 20min. Good pub in grounds of Parsonage hotel & a Thai restaurant that also does takeout, excellent food at both.

We have stayed at the parsonage 4 times and wouldn’t go back if it was rubbish.
The spa is lovely. Swimming pool, big jacuzzi , several steam rooms. The treatments were fairly priced.
The fat fryer has a great menu and again good prices.
The area (Escrick) is out of the way and unless you have a car you could be marooned. I didn’t see any busses but I understand it is on a route.
I’m looking forward to going again soon.

We liked the lovely garden surroundings which were immaculate, the lounge and conservatory where we could relax and the swimming pool and jacuzzi which was excellent.
A good bus service into York was very helpful.
The staff struggled slightly with service at breakfast time when the hotel became very busy.

The establishment was not as good as advertised.
The establishment was not as good as advertised. Definitely wouldn’t recommend or class as 4 star.
Checkin experience was rubbish as did not have the room ready for check in time given on website.
Spa outdated needs a refurbishment and the loungers really close to the floor (no legs on them) making it difficult getting back up from them.
Room was too hot and had to have fan on and windows open all night.
The milk was off in the room and no bin in the main room only in the bathroom.
The only good thing I can say was that the Abbott pub which was on site was very nice with great staff and lovely food and plenty of parking.
We won’t be going to this hotel and spa again as very disappointing

nothing there as far as i could tell, yorkshire water doing work right outside the hotel , did not really bother us until they switched the water off for a whole day, that is not the hotels fault but there again they should complain to the water company as it happens quite often according to staff. on the whole disappointed with visit.

Slightly disappointing as it looked amazing venue.
Slightly disappointing as it looked amazing venue. It could be spectacular but the receptionist struggled to smile and took ages to do things, breakfast tepid, carpets a bit grubby and had 1980s feel to it
The bed was very comfy. Large bathroom with shower over the bath. Lovely soft fluffy towels and Elemis shower gel and body/hand lotion. Tea/coffee in room. Lovely spa with pool, jacuzzi and 4 different hot rooms. Buffet breakfast was lovely with lots of choice. Bus stop into York a very short walk away which goes via the Designer Outlet.
The accompanying restaurant "The fat Abbott " located in the grounds was lovely. Clean good decor and great food . Staff were attentive and pleasant.
The gardens were well kept and nice to walk round
The hotel breakfast was nice with good choice , the earlier you went the better the selection.
The Spa was lush. With 3 steam rooms, sauna, jacuzzi & pool. The whole atmosphere was relaxing. Nicely spread out so you didn't feel like the hotel was full to capacity. Lots of different nooks & crannys to sit & relax & enjoy the views.
The best spa facilities and pool I've been to so far(and I've been to a lot)lovely church next door,and public transport a 5 minute walk away,which takes you to a designer outlet(10 minutes)or into the centre of york(20 minutes)
The spa was amazing and incredibly relaxing. The food at the Fat Abbot pub was also fantastic! The hotel itself was set in a wonderful location - lovely and quiet but easy to get into the centre of York by public transport.
The hotel managed to put us up on the morning of our stay after our previous hotel (The Black Bull) rang to cancel all reservations.
The staff in the bar/restaurant and breakfast room were helpful and friendly.
Good spa facilities. Friendly staff. Grounds of the hotel are very nice. Overnight 22kw EV charging (only cost effective if you are near empty, as it’s a £30 flat fee).
