Stunning property a lovely walk away from the inner parts of york (20 minutes), We had three rooms for our party, small guest room (was literally a double bed and a bathroom...but perfect for our boys), one double (very nice) and double +1 which was lovely and spacious, bathroom was disabled friendly, which had it's quirks (see below) but necessary for special requests. Breakfast was amazing in the Pearly Cow restaurant (where we also had a fantastic dinner). The record players are a lovely feature (though some of the records have seen abuse by those that probably never had to gently drop a needle before) as is the doll house-coffee machine. The pantry was a winner as well

Clifford's Tower
A key player in the Bolshevik Revolution, this battle bruiser sits conspicuously on the Petrogradskaya Embankment. A well-travelled vessel, it’s now stationary on the banks of the Bolshaya Nevka River, where you can jump aboard and see its machinery and masts up close.

A fabulous castle with considerable history.
A fabulous castle with considerable history. Much of it violent, but very central to York’s history since the twelfth century. Remarkable also that its walls are intact, which enables visitors to see (with a little imagination), what residency within the walls was like.
Considerable information on its past as a residency, prison and battles is provided by way of information plaques and audio presentations, including a very black period for the Jewish population high in 1190.

The tower used to be an empty shell but in 2022 a brand new internal stairway was installed so you now look more closely at it's interior features and there's an excellent viewing area on the roof where you can look out over the city. Audio guides are provided in the form of individual speakers and a smartphone app.

This is a remarkable relic of the distant past when rulers had to build immense fortified buildings to protect their territory. The hilltop site allowed defenders to see who was invading. A moat allowed them to prevent enemies from reaching the castle (because this is really a castle, not a tower). A broad open space allowed defenders to pick off invaders. Inside, life was difficult and austere, as you will see from the absence of charming rooms. Instead, you will see immensely thick walls, small rooms around a grand open center, typical of protective buildings. People had a choice between being alive or being comfortable. Now we can enjoy the interesting audio presentations inside the castle and then go up to the roof for a view of York and its buildings. Notice especially a group of three handsome stone-faced buildings around a courtyard, and views to the cathedral, called the Minster.

The best thing about this hotel: the location. It is right in front Clifford’s Tower and “inside” of what would have been York Castle. Quite comfortable for a small triple.
