Great place to stay

Lovely place to stay when visiting York. About a 20 minute flat walk to city centre shops and cathedral. Good breakfast, friendly service. Hotel was full when we visited and car park was also a bit tight when full. Our room was second floor and there is no lift... Make sure you request ground floor room when booking if it's needed... I forgot! Great place, a larger than average b&b.

Sightseeing tip: Short walk from hotel

Visit the treasurers house round the back of the cathedral, owned by the national trust and worth a visit. Good for lunch or tea and cake!

The Groves is a very nice small

The Groves is a very nice small hotel. We spent 2 nights in July '10 here and found it a very pleasant experience. There is a main building and 2 annexes with more rooms across the car park (no charge during your stay). One of our party had a 2nd floor room in the main building and the other 2 were in one of the annexes. We found that the main building room was smaller than that in the annexe but both were quite adequate for a short stay. Obviously, room sizes vary so our experience may not be typical. The breakfast choices were excellent, from a full English to a continental, as was the breakfast itself. There is a small bar, open till around 11.00pm, at normal pub prices and a lounge to relax in. Staff were all friendly, polite and very helpful. The hotel is located in a quiet side street and it's a 10-minute stroll to the city walls and Minster, 15 mins to the centre. We have no hesitation in recommending this hotel for a short, or even a longer, stay in York.

Das traditionsreiche Hotel

England hat eine ungewohnte Kälte, einige Hotels und auch Ladengeschäfte waren darauf schlecht vorbereitet. Der Heizkörper im Zimmer des Hotels wurde erst mit unserem Erscheinen aufgedreht, es dauerte lange, bis es warm wurde. Alles andere war jedoch ganz nach unseren Erwartungen.
