The staff and lounges were beautiful but the room was very small, dark with lots of faults including a cracked toilet seat which is very unhygienic. Tiny window overlooking the train station roof and one double glazing panel was missing. Lots of areas with paint missing and bathroom door that wouldn’t close and had a big area of white filler, probably where the handle had been. Very disappointed with room.

Great staff & the hotel down stairs and around the grounds was beautiful. Once got to our room we were a little dissapointed - very small room, mould on bathroom ceiling, no lighting in half the room so couldnt see when ironing or to use full length mirror & couldnt hang clothes due to the kettle etc being directly under hanging rail. Dispite these things the room was clean and exellent location.

Another great break

As usual the staff were so helpful and friendly from check-in to checkout. We had ordered fruit for our room, and what a selection was waiting for us. The room was lovely looking out over the garden towards the Minster. The photo makes it look like it quite s distance but it isn't really. There were teas, coffees and biscuits available, due to medication we asked for decaf drinks which we given by reception. Breakfast (self-service) and evening meals have good choices for whatever you feel like. The hotel being next to the station, it makes travelling so handy as its straight into the hotel from the station. A lovely break and we'll be back.

We stayed one night at The Milner York and absolutely loved it. The location was perfect—just a short walk from the city walls and everything we wanted to explore. Our room was beautifully appointed, quiet, and full of character, with thoughtful touches that made us feel truly welcome. The staff were kind and attentive, and the whole atmosphere felt charming and peaceful. We’d happily stay here again on our next visit to York!

Hotel is conveniently located close to the train station and about a 15 minute walk to town where all the attractions are. Beautiful lobby and grounds. Our room was a bit small but would’ve been fine except the sink and shower did not drain. I suspect it is an ongoing problem as there’s a moldy smell upon entering the room.

Disappointing, overpriced.

My daughter was really excited about her stay in the four star hotel but she felt like it was a better experience in the travelodge. No tea and coffee, no hairdryer, majority of tv channels did not work, communal areas had many stained carpets and smelled funny, customers in the pool were rude, parking expensive. She was disappointed about our posh stay away :( We’d rather spend less next time.

i paid extra for a room with a view of the gardens and i got a view of a canvas bar taking up half of it, not what the pictures suggested at all. There was a wedding in the hotel on one of the nights and the music was so loud you could here it clearly in our room on the 2nd floor which spoilt our quiet night. i asked at reception if something could be done but they were less than helpful. Overall the hotel and staff were excellent.
