Could be better
In need of a makeover . Staff are lovely . Rooms tired , worn out and in some areas dirty . Need a deep clean .
Charged for parking even though i searched hotels with free parking .
Would not say £170 for a run down room particularly good value .
TV remote so worn you could not see what buttons are what .
Not sure we would stay again

Close to York Minster. Decent hotel.
The room was ok, the bed a bit hard for my disabled wife. We had room 5, on the first floor and we had a fridge but then my wife pointed out it was the bathroom. No heating whatsoever. Breakfast excellent. Car parking free unless you book via, for eg Hotels.com, £10.00 a night.

Lovely stay in York
Room was comfortable and decent size. Bathroom was clean and spacious.
Breakfast was excellent and freshly cooked with plenty of choices.
Location for town was a 5 min walk to the city wall and approx 10 minutes walk to The Shambles.
Staff were friendly.
The only minor drawback we thought was the hotel seemed a little tired but didn’t affect our lovely stay at The Minster Hotel.

Friendly hotel, perfectly situated.
We reported a broken toilet seat several times and nothing was done about it despite assurances it would be dealt with. Despite this everyone we spoke to was extremely friendly so I think it was probably just a mix up in house.
The Minster Hotel is perfectly situated for spending time in York, I use a mobility scooter and was able to get in to the city in a matter of minutes.

Prepare for a climb
No lift, no help with luggage. Attic room on the street side. I suspect that Expedia users get the least desirable rooms. Location is excellent.

Short stay just right for York
All staff very friendly and helpful. Rooms well appointed and hotel only 10 mins walk from York Centre.
Breakfast was good value for the money.
