First visit to York.

The location to city centre was excellent. 10 minutes walk to city centre, On arrival Allan and Julie were very helpful and accommodating and explained how everything worked. The cooked Breakfast was fantastic and just as we had asked. The room was a reasonably size and had a high ceiling, and was decoratively well kept, but even with the heating off the room was quite hot at night. But we did have warm weather during the day, The down side: we are use to a soft bed and pillows. For us these were too hard and uncomfortable. Also one guest decided to open and slam there door for about ten minutes on the second and third night. We couldn’t fault the knowledge and enthusiasm of the owners. Lovely people.

The City Guest House is a perfect place to for a short stay. Julie and Alan the owners were very welcoming and we found our room comfortable, spotlessly clean. A very good breakfast and buffet kept us going for most of the day.

Weekend Christmas getaway

Fantastic stay, close to all the highlights of york, could not fault the accommodation. Both of proprietors are amazing and make you very welcome. We stayed in dec and the place was nicely decorated for Christmas, the gingerbread scent in the hallway was lovely. The accommodation is very clean and tidy with all you need for a comfortable stay.

From the moment we got there too the moment we left, Alan and Julie were the perfect hosts. The rooms were bigger than expected with our own ensuite and extremely clean. The choice at breakfast was amazing and if you wanted something not on the table just ask and it will be produced. Everything was in easy walking distance with plenty of places to stop for coffee and cake, Including Betty's which is a must. We are at the local tapas bar Ambience, food was amazing and staff very friendly. So much to do in York, and the City guest house is the perfect place to stay
