Jorvik House was really nice. The room and bathroom were very clean and in good condition. Warm welcome at reception and overall very nice place to stay for a few days. My only complaint would be that it would have been nice to have things like milk, tea, loo roll, etc replenished when empty, rather than on request.

Absolutely fabulous place for a stay in York.
If you want a clean, stylish, friendly base fir a few days in York - you wont beat this hotel. Stayed in several York hotels- but love it here - just book it ! And a lovely stroll through museum gardens to York centre - perfect 👌

Easy walk from the train station even dragging a big bag. We had a very nice room and it was the only place we stayed in England or Scotland that had a fridge (minibar) in room. Easy walk to historic area of City, pubs and beautiful gardens across the street. Helpful staff.

I've visited the property multiple times and the staff are always wonderfully helpful and friendly.
The rooms are always clean, tidy and comfortable.
It's in a great location, very walkable and directly opposite the museum gardens and very close to central York but off the main road enought that there is no noise when trying to sleep (bar some late night arrivals with lead feet that only disturbed for about 30mins night 1).
The Jorvik house will always be my first and preffered choice. And as my Mam's first trip to this hotel she loved it and had the best nights sleep she's had in weeks! Looking forward to our next stay
