I have stayed with Gill and David before at their previous and much larger establishment and they have lost none of their touch. I can think of nothing I would change, they are so welcoming and have thought of just about everything. It is beyond me why anybody would want to stay in a hotel. I read the 4 star... More

Great place to stay in york. We had a lovely time here before we went to Edinburgh. Very welcoming hosts we had a very nice room a great breakfast. nice location in York for centre and railway we told our hosts in Edinburgh how nice it was.

We stayed at the Alexander House for three nights in November to celebrate my husband's birthday.

We can only agree with the previous reviews, very welcoming, clean, warm, comfortable, & everything works. A good breakfast with plenty of choice, definitely recommend you try the home made museli - much better than commercial versions. Alexander House is just 10 minutes walk from the town (Cliffords Tower) and there are local shops 2 or 3 minutes along the... More

Our room was clean with fresh flowers on the window sill plenty tea coffee etc. The... More
