I stayed here with my husband on sunday night and it was spot on. The location is great, the room was clean ( 4 poster bed was an unexpected surprise!), and the breakfast was wonderful. No complaints at all from us :-)

Good value for money if you want no frills, just clean, comfy and close to all that York has to offer. The staff were very helpful and friendly, the receptionist doing her best with the weird TV remote, the lock on my window, and finally offering me another room when she couldn't manage to unlock it. Breakfast was of excellent... More

Despite the fact that we booked a room here through booking.com last November, when we arrived on Friday afternoon 12th April we were told they were fully booked, 'cause they had a wedding party' . The management weren't available or too busy to assist the very young lady that was in charge and over the phone said that the sister... More

Dear Sir/Madam, Firstly I would like to apologise profusely on behalf of The St Deny's and it's team. Being over booked is something we don't experience regularly. I will be looking in to exactly why this happened, to ensure it does not happen again. With regards to management not being available, if there is not a senior member of staff... More

Good: The staff could not have been more welcoming, cheerful and helpful. The breakfast was generous, freshly-cooked and catered for my vegetarian requirements. My bedroom was perfectly pleasant and clean. The location was ideal, just a short walk into the city centre. Reasonable value for an overnight stay. Room for improvement: The en-suite bathroom was a disaster. Mould in the... More

Don't be put off by older reviews, this hotel was perfectly clean and much better than a budget hotel or hostel. The breakfast was lovely and the rooms old fashioned but clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Best of all it was only a few minutes walk from the shops and bars and we were even... More

Like another reviewer, I was a bit worried about what to expect after reading some of the more negative reviews. However we were visiting on the Easter holiday weekend and had left it a bit late so had to take the chance as it was one of only a few that had rooms available. However we needn't have worried as...
