The Lighthorseman
Very reasonable rates. Quiet, even though there is a large pub on the ground floor, the noise was not really noticeable. I would definitely stay again.

A little noise from the bar area
A reasonable stay. Room was clean and tidy, dated in some ways but freshly decorated in other ways. Noise from the bar below and other guests could be a bit annoying.

Lovely Inn in York for short stay
Good location. Accomodation was about a 10min walk into the centre. Our room was at front of the Inn on a main road, at night you could hear some traffic. Parking available which was a bonus. Room was basic, but clean, fine for a short stay. Windows old, but the Inn is old, so expected, but could do with an external clean. Bed was a double, comfortable. Bar area was nice. We paid for breakfast during our stay, it was lovely. Inn was actually bigger than we thought it would be. There was also an external seated garden area, a games room with pool table and darts. All in all had a lovely stay.

York Visit
Hotel was a 10 minute walk away from town. The pub itself looked to be a sports bar. We didn't hear alot of noise from the pub itself. The room was clean, warm and comfortable. The shower was either really hot or really cold so ended up having a bath instead but I could of been using it incorrectly. The staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely staff here again when visiting York again.

4/10 Fair

The whole place was run down and not particularly clean. Tea and coffee was not topped up for the second day. Expensive for the quality of the room

Parking was easy in the car park, the accommodation was comfortable and Lucy was welcoming. Unfortunately, during our stay the chef was on holidays so we couldn’t eat downstairs, however we were recommended to walk 5 mins down the road to the Mason’s Arms pub, which was a wonderful quintessential English pub… Also, it was perfectly located for our walk to The Shambles and cathedral in the rain!

The highlight for us was the staff in the pub downstairs. Checking in, and walking me to the room, and friendly pub staff made us really enjoy this place. The street outside was a little rambunctious but that wasn’t the fault of the hotel just some young people living across the road.
