Hotels near Stonegate, York

"The Milner York features a grand late-Victorian facade built from distinctive yellow Scarborough brick. Inside, the stunning entrance lobby showcases an ornate historical dome and elegant monochrome tiled flooring. The hotel's crown jewel is a sweeping, central iron staircase surrounded by high ceilings. Public lounges beautifully blend historic opulence with plush chesterfield sofas and herringbone wood floors. However, multiple guests note that the contemporary bedrooms are noticeably smaller in size. This compact room layout is especially apparent within the modern ”Sidings” annexe."

"The hotel is quite old and small. There's no elevator, so with luggage, you have to climb very narrow stairs. The room has no air conditioning, making it very hot in the summer. The toilet is also difficult to use; you have to press down with a lot of force. We booked a family room, and the extra bed was terrible – my child would sink into it while sleeping. For over 2,000, it's definitely not worth the price. The staff, however, were quite nice."

"Amazing location including a balcony over the river (from the hotel bar). The bedrooms were nicely decorated and in reasonable condition. There were no drawers for clothes and the wardrobe had no doors, there were just open shelves and open hanging rails with some coat hangers provided. There were several Yorkshire teabags and instant Nescafé coffee sticks (with sugar and milk) provided, and gourmet biscuits. The WiFi was fast. Plug sockets (including USB) were available by the bed but there were no sockets next to the bed. There is no air conditioning but fans are provided. The bathroom was in very poor condition with rust, mold, a very loud extractor fan and a light that took a long time to turn on. Water pressure was excellent however. Breakfast was a typical Full English buffet with sausages, bacon, mushrooms, scrambled eggs, tomato, fried bread and hash browns. Cereal and pastries were also available. You do need to reserve a breakfast time each day. My room was cleaned daily during my stay with tea/coffee/milk/biscuits replenished"

"We were very disappointed with the check-in experience. The hotel assigned us rooms in a wing where the air conditioning was not working. It appeared that the staff were already aware of the problem, as my friends and I seemed to be the only guests staying in that entire wing. Unfortunately, this happened during a heatwave, making the rooms unbearably hot and very uncomfortable. I had to walk back to reception to request a room change. The staff initially offered to bring us a fan and said the hotel was fully booked, but that was not an acceptable solution in such extreme temperatures. After I insisted, my friends and I were finally moved to rooms with working air conditioning. What made the situation even more confusing was that guests who checked in after us were assigned rooms on other floors with functioning air conditioning. That left us wondering why we had been placed in rooms with a known problem in the first place. Guests should never be checked into rooms with a major maintenance issue like this, especially during a heatwave. While we appreciated that the hotel eventually moved us, the whole experience left us with serious doubts about how room allocations were handled —- is it because i booked via Trip.com ?"

"A solid 3 star experience but not more than that. They say they offer bike courier pick up for your luggage from the train station, but I didn't get sent any information about how to book it, every time I tried to call I couldn't get through to a human, and when I eventually found an email address to contact about it, no one replied. We were put in a room on the very top floor right after the heat wave, the temperature up there was still so warm, could feel it going up in as we ascended the stairs, but I couldn't open the window in the room very much without bugs flying in. They provided a small fan but it didn't do much. Our room was cramped, not really anywhere to store your luggage and the bathroom's only surface space to put your things was a ledge above the toilet which I didn't like. On the other hand, all the people we spoke to at reception were friendly and helpful, the location was convenient and the pantry was appreciated."

"The room was relatively spacious, especially the bathroom, which also had a beautiful design with hot water for showers. I arrived early and was able to check in since a room was available. The location is excellent, right next to the city walls entrance, perfect for a walk around the city. I didn't require housekeeping during my two-day stay, and the hotel even gave me a £15 voucher for the restaurant downstairs, which I used for coffee and drinks. Very satisfied."

"Had a really enjoyable stay here. The rooms are very modern and clean. The service was outstanding. I was welcomed in by Dean the receptionist who was so helpful and went above and beyond to help us throughout our stay. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend if you’re visiting York."

"Very close to the train station, just a few minutes' walk away (it seems like cutting through the adjacent George House is the quickest route). There's no bottled water provided, but the hotel's tap water is drinkable. An electric kettle is available. The Western-style breakfast has a good variety. The room is quiet and spacious. The two bath towels weren't together; one was in the bathroom and the other in the sliding wardrobe. The bed is wide and comfortable."

"Great hotel! Absolutely would recommend. Room was lovely and clean, hotel in a great location. Easy to walk to/from town and to the high street. Staff were lovely, great little tuck shop area to buy drinks/snacks. And air con which was a god send in the recent hot weather. I initially booked into a different hotel which was awful, found this place and booked immediately - very happy I moved!"

"Brilliant hotel in the heart of things, love the dark setting with most of the lighting being from floor lights, really add to effect. Couldn’t fault it really, only minor thing was you could t open the window, room was a little stuffy in the morning but this wouldn’t put me off staying again! Staff were exceptional, credit to the hotel. Thanks for a wonderful stay, see you again soon."
