Great sized room. Nice bathroom. Shower worked well. Nice and friendly and helpful hosts. Great value and short walk into City.
Awesome.
Nice little B&B within walking distance to the city centre.
This was a convenient location with onsite parking available.
The room was spacious and comfortable for the most part although our bed was very creaky so maybe the mattress or base needs replacing.
Shower was excellent and the breakfast was good, recommended!
Comfortable clean room, breakfast was very good and served by friendly staff

Walking distance to train station and city... good location.
Property itself is a little tired, curtains fell down when we tried to pull them across in our room.
5 flights of stairs to the room, and 6 down to breakfast, no lift.
Staff friendly and attentive in the breakfast room and a decent but basic breakfast.

The room was awful!! The girl on reception was lovely and made some repairs while we were out on Saturday but I did not expect toilet seat that didnt fit and a WC that moved when you sat on it and black mould in the bathroom! The curtains didnt have enough rings, bedside lights didnt work and the electrics were mainly on an extension lead that I very much doubt had been Pat tested! Should have all been fixed before the room was let!

The staff were super helpful all times..The breakfast was superb.
Place was clean and cosy!
As I was a little later than planned the front desk made sure I was still available and double checked to make sure I was still here!
Great customer service - wouldn’t hesitate to recommend people staying at the location
The staff members were wonderful hosts… helpful, polite, and professional. The breakfast was delicious and served in a delightful space. The Holmwood House is a great value.

The hotel was fine but the bed had springs sticking out everywhere completely worn out worst bed ive ever had in a hotel
close enoigh to York station, easily walkable to centre of town. few pubs in walking distance. room was perfect, decent sized shower. will use whenever i'm back in York.
We stayed 2 nights on a short break to York on a budget.
It was about a 15 min walk into the center of York which was perfect for us and a 10 min walk to Delrio's Italian restaurant which we would highly recommend
The property was clean and the staff were pleasant.
It is worth noting that there is an an extra £10.00 a day charge for parking which is highlighted when booking and is a fraction of the cost of the public carpark charges
