A very good, first-class hotel, ideally located for visitors to the old town of York. ** Please also note that the hotel does not accept all male or all female group parties. Bookings may be cancelled if a single sex group is booked or refused entry to hotel upon arrival.** (GW 05/2009) A modern looking, pale brick building, set across 4 floors. Very attractive because the river flows directly at the side of the hotel. Limited parking available at the hotel, but must be pre-booked with hotel in advance. The Queens is located within the old city walls of York overlooking the river Ouse, and within the city centre. Minutes from York Minster the hotel is perfectly located for leisure guests exploring the city, and also provides easy access to surrounding routes to cities such as Harrogate and Leeds.

Hotel in good location with easy

Hotel in good location with easy access to York centre. Hotels' underground car park has only 18 spaces which you need to reserve before your stay, we missed out but used the nearby (3min walk) NCP car park which cost around £15 overnight. Hotel itself is clean but the decor is looking a little tired especially in the public areas. Buffet breakfast was good, room larger than expected and the staff friendly and helpful. Overall a pretty good experience for a short stay.

Great Place to stay

We were very pleased with this hotel. The staff was most helpful, the room was larger than most hotels in England where we have stayed before, and the restaurant was great: good food and reasonable prices.

Queen's - Central York

Very well located with large rooms with nice river views. As usual in England there is not value for money - the breakfast was served as a buffet with soggy scrambled eggs and burned bacon served in a crowded and boring room, the entire hotel needs a good scrubbing and a lick of paint. We booked early for what turned out to be half term fall school break there were no spaces left in the parking garage when we arrived - if we'd known in advance we would have also booked a parking space. Who knew?

Queens- York - A Great Stay!

This is a great Hotel which is perfectly situated in the center of York. The rooms are spacious and very modern/clean. The breakfast was a full English buffet and was of high quality. The staff were very helpfull and polite when approached. We were upgraded to river view upon arrival which was a nice touch. I will definately be stopping their again :) Thanks for a great weekend Queens (and York ;) )

This was the worst hotel I've

This was the worst hotel I've ever stayed in. The mattress was the worst thing I've ever experienced. One side of it had completely collapsed and had springs coming out. Once I told staff their solution was to put blankets between the base and the mattress - why I have no idea - all that managed to do was raise the foot of the bed by 3 inches or so. Very disapointed that this hotel is recommended by [website]. Only thing going for it is the location.
