DoubleTree by Hilton York

A huge thanks to the person who checked our cycling party in on tuesday evening. she couldn't have been more helpful, sorting out all the room keycards in one go, secure storage for the bikes and helping me with parking the van. it is brilliantly situated for walking into york centre being just outside the walls, the other staff were just as friendly. the rooms were lovely, just as you would expect for this class of hotel but some of the fittings were showing their age. breakfast was standard hotel buffet and again the staff were very attentive.

Great location, only a few minutes walk and you are by the york minster. comfortable room, clean hotel, pleasant and friendly staff. breakfast was great on the friday but was very busy on the saturday with a lot more guests. the breakfast was expensive considering they ran out of a lot of breakfast items even with an hour and half of service left. i would stay again but go elsewhere for breakfast. a great bar with lovely food if you decide to dine in instead of going out. please be mindful it is £20 to park your car overnight. other car parks are just as pricey to be fair.

Really nice hotel. the staff was very attentive and you can get anything you wanted, all you had to do was ask. the view out my window wasn't so great. the location was fantastic, close to mostly anything you would like to see/do.

We got married in york and chose to stay at the doubletree during that weekend. the room was more spacious than what we could see in the pictures, perfect for us to get ready. we took our senior dog with us who can't go up any steps, the staff were great about it and gave us a key for a special lift that took us right next to our room on the third floor. they also provided a comfortable bed for him and a water bowl. the location was perfect as it was just a couple of blocks away from our venue. it was a very hot weekend and the air con was very useful. i would gladly stay here again :)

I decided to visit the wonderful york for a couple of days so an overnight stay was in order. after looking around the double tree seemed a good option. the location is very good as it's within easy reach of the city, reasonable parking is nearby. there is also a good sized sainsbury's a short walk away for any supplies. upon arrival i was greeted multiple times by extremely friendly staff, but on seeing a couch had just arrived i was prepared for a bit of a wait. after dealing with the 3 people in front of me promptly (two shouldn't have even been bothering the receptionist as they merely had to wait as instructed ) i was not only informed my room was ready but also i had been upgraded for free. the room was really nice and lots of room for myself and would be very comfortable for more. all the amenities were great and as expected. one downside and it seems pretty common in busy hotels is that the bathroom looked a bit tired and beaten, but still was more than adequate. only small issues i had was that the rooms seem to have rather squeaky floors, and on occasions i could hear other rooms stomping about. the other issue was my room was situated next to a main road, and the odd boy racer with loud exhaust and sound system would drive by, but honestly it's not the hotels fault just be aware. i didn't have a chance to use any of the other facilities, but overall it was very well presented, clean ,and all staff are very welcoming and friendly. if visiting york again i would definitely think about using again.
