What's not to love? It's right in the middle of everything. The view from the room was amazing. Right outside the hotel you're in the historic shopping area, with its tiny roads, quaint shops, and more haunted locations than you can count. And when you're done, have a pint downstair in the Guy Fawkes pub before heading up to bed. Just watch out for the wobbly floors and tilting stairs. But after almost 500 years what do you expect. All part of the charm. It was a brilliant stay

Very well situated for the City centre and easy walking distance from the train station. All attractions easily accessible within short walking distances. The inn is very busy and the food was very nice. The room we were in was clean but it was certainly starting to look tired. This is the second time staying at the Guy Fawkes and I would be happy to stay there again.

Checkin was very strange. isn’t a checkin counter (understand it’s old) we checked in over tray of dirty cups and dishes on table near a sign that said “receptionist”. We were early, so they said we could leave our bags there by table behind the dirty dishes and they’d put them in our room when ready. That was it. This is a seventeenth century structure so be prepared. It feels like that. we had room at very top (14). It was “a suite” and was strangest, oldest, creepiest room I’ve ever stayed. room was clean, appointed with very old furniture and creepy photos. could have been an attic, large odd rooms and spaces. watch your head! A CON was the lack of instruction from staff. No info about our strange room and figuring out how to work things. instruction pamphlet about the room, history, fire escape safety, and how to work things would be nice to have. Lastly, room slanted greatly to right, not quite 45* angle. Many flights to get to room, stairs tilted so that a metal rod was placed to hold stair landing secure. That was interesting. In closing, this certainly WAS an experience. Know what to expect when you book here and you’ll have an interesting historic stay!! Not great service, it’s a tourist trap so the staff can’t give hotel guests any real attention or keep track of who’s coming and going. I wouldn’t stay here again, but can certainly say I’ve been and it was a strange experience.

Very unique property with amazing views of the minster and so incredibly close! We stayed in the top room which is basically its own apartment, such a great view of the minster and super quirky room! This room didn't disappoint and was amazing. You're paying for the location and be mindful it is an inn, not a hotel, therefore service / check in is done at the bar. This was a little suprising and concerning at first given the hotel price paid, HOWEVER, you are paying for a stunning view, location and awesome rooms.

We really felt that this property was overrated, and also misrepresented... it was portrayed as much fancier and cooler than it was. The room was tiny, cramped, and crypt like,and the overall inn itself was small, dark and cramped as well. It seemed clean on the surface, but the whole experience felt grimy, and I didn't really want to set anything down in our room. I dreaded going back to the property at the end of the day, and felt claustrophobic and uncomfortable the whole time we were there. Honestly, we should have checked out and gone somewhere else, but we didn't realize that it was an option, as we had prepaid for the stay. Additionally, the property was located in the most cramped, overly touristy area in York, and there were throngs of people outside at all times. This is a terrible, touristy location. The noise levels were unbelievable, and I can't believe that there were no warnings about this in advance. The room is over a noisy pub, and there was loud drunken revelry below us and outside the window which kept waking us up. The staff seemed annoyed by working there, and there was a general lack of care and attention in general. Also, some people might have thought that the age and deterioration of the building was quaint and historic, but the room slanted really dramatically and it made it difficult to walk around. The bed was loud and creaky, and the sheets were rough like sandpaper. This was one of the worst places we have ever stayed!

Loved this historic building in a wonderful location in the heart of York. The staff were all brilliant, really friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was great too. For a hotel right next to the Minster I wasn’t expecting it to be so quiet at night but it was surprisingly peaceful and the bed was sooo comfy.

Right next to the Minster, it made waking to all interesting areas very easy. The room was charming and made one feel as though it had barely changed since the 17th C. yet had modern conveniences. The one thing I would note is that a good light is needed by the mirror in the bedroom, as I could see only the very top of my head in the bathroom mirror where the light is excellent.
