The room was really impressive. The grounds were beautiful to look at and walk around. The garden bar is so elegant and relaxing to just sit and have a drink and look over the garden. The position is perfect, literally walk off the rail platform near the bar and the entrance is there, about 50 yards. The wall runs past the front of the hotel, just across the road, perfect location.

Although abounding in reminders of the past, York is very much a city for the here and now, with excellent shops, bars and restaurants, many along the River Ouse. Surrounding it are the medieval city walls – the longest and best preserved in England – and many of the gates that once allowed access to the city.
Walk the walls for wonderful views towards the city and towering York Minster. Standing proud on a hill, this cavernous church is the seat of the Archbishop of York, the 2nd highest position in the Church of England.
A little south is The Shambles, a narrow street with medieval buildings that now house quaint shops. Going further back in time is the Jorvik Centre, a fascinating museum showcasing the city’s Viking remains. You can even have a go at archaeology yourself at the DIG excavation pits, with replica finds from York’s Roman, Viking, medieval and Victorian eras.
Other York attractions include the National Railway Museum, home to the Flying Scotsman and Mallard trains. Around 30 minutes’ drive away is Castle Howard, a stately home with over 1000 acres of grounds.

York is a very pleasant, interesting city with lots to do for every kind of traveller.
For able bodied visitors it is an easy city to negotiate, but you must be prepared to walk. Taxis are good but not always readily available especialy in the rain

Great city, plenty of restaurants and shops loved learning about the history.
Disliked the sightseeing cruise as it took you passed all the bars along the water front and the rest was just trees and bushes, would not recommend.

Great location, easy to walk to attractions.
Great location, easy to walk to attractions. It rained the full day I was there, but that was the only downside. A very interesting, medievil city with a rich history. Lots of good shopping and restaurants too. Easy access by train, can walk from station to lodging in the city center.

York is full of history...and a walking tour is a must. The museums and exhibits are all wonderful and offer 12-month use of their tickets! The Minster itself is a marvel and stunning! We've been to York twice in 6 months and have had rain for a few hours on each trip...though this didn't stop us from seeing all we wanted.

History everywhere but be sure to take the free tour...
History everywhere but be sure to take the free tour provided by resident volunteers. It really is free and they will open your eyes to hidden secrets. Tours start in Exhibition Square in front of the Art Museum, look for their sign and make a booking. Loved the whole vibe of this part of England.

York is bursting with fascinating places.
York is bursting with fascinating places. There’s ancient architecture and historical interest around every corner and the main places to see are all to be found within a fairly compact, pedestrian friendly centre. A huge range of food and drink is on offer and the locals seem (justifiably) proud of their beautiful city and its rich history.
I booked my room after checking out of an awful hotel. It was affordable, the staff were great and helpful, the room was clean and everything was working. The shower is a decent size and the bed was very comfy. It's only 8 mins from York city centre so the location is also great. It was my first time staying at a Radisson and am happy to say I'll do so several times more because you get what you expect.
Lovely hotel very close to the gates of old York. The staff is exceptional, very kind and helpful. They serve good breakfast and they have a restaurant, and beer garden where they serve pizza. We enjoyed pizza in the beer garden when we arrived and it was very good. We had a family room which was good size and quite comfortable. Good shower and beds. We would stay here again.
The breakfast was very nice. The hotel is in a very old building and is charming. We found the room a bit cramped, with the bed very close to the wall. Everything was very clean. York is a very beautiful town, with lots to see. We were lucky to be there on the day King Charles was crowned, and witnessed the impressive public celebration of that event. We would stay again.
Best thing was the hotel's location...is five minutes from the train station, ten from the Shambles, YorkMinister and Old City. Rooms were sufficient size, with view of old architecture from them. Front reception staff were wonderful. Check-in and checkout were both quick. We were allowed to store luggage there for several hours on either side of our reservation.
Great location, only walking distance to all points of interest in York. It makes us easier to go back and forth to old town and hotel whenever we need, especially during cold weather. They also serve great breakfast here. There are several convenience stores nearby. The size and layout of the room are just perfect, especially for us with an extra bed for our child.
This was our second stay at this hotel.
The location is ideal as it's easy to find and only a 10 minute flat walk in to the city centre. Secure parking on site is a huge bonus as parking in the city is expensive.
Good size rooms. Excellent little bar and the staff are super friendly.
Will definitely book again when staying in York.
Great hotel which is perfectly located for getting around all the major attractions. Rooms are lovely and clean. Breakfast was excellent and very good value. What really makes this hotel is the Staff each and every one of them were friendly and helpful and next time we return to York we will definitely stay there again.
The hotel was clean and beautifully furnished (and smelt nice). The staff were lovely and friendly and genuinely wanted to help. The extra touches in the room were nice too. Breakfast was amazing! The location was fab being only a few mins walk to York City centre and on a road with fab eateries.
It's a great location for visiting York which we knew as we have stayed there before. The room was a good size and resonably comfortable. We were at the back of the hotel overlooking the car park, so at least it was quiet. The staff were very helpful, we didn't try the breakfast.
York Aparthotel locates at a more quiet area of York but it’s still very center. We got a duplex with big kitchen and sofa. We cook a few meals there and it got everything we need for a proper family meal. The bed is comfy. The bathroom is clean with strong hot shower.
Very well situated for York Railway Station and a short walk into the City Centre. Nice modern hotel with good sized bedroom and walk in shower. Ideal for a short stay either business or leisure. Breakfast plentiful and well organised.
The reception was very welcoming,staff fantastic friendly helpful.this hotel right by the river not far to walk to the attractions,lots to do and see,York minster is a must see,Betty's famous tea room ,shambles.shops open top bus etc
Clean and well looked after hotel. Room was nice and I liked how we were given a room name instead of number. Staff were polite and the breakfast was good. No problem with parking. Will stay there again when next in York.
Great location with parking just a short stroll from the centre of York. Superb for a short break with the children as so much more space than a hotel.
I like almost everything, it´s very beautiful fancy hotel, very close to the city centre. The staff are very kind. And York is amazing historical city.
