About the Hotel
Masons Arms - Historic riverside pub-hotel with classic British dining and city wall views
Located along the River Foss with views of York's city walls and gatehouse, this traditional British York hotel occupies a late 1800s building featuring authentic Gothic elements including oak paneling from York Castle. The 4-star Masons Arms showcases private rooms equipped with flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, tea/coffee facilities, and private bathrooms with walk-in showers. The property's restaurant serves freshly prepared British cuisine from 12 PM to 8:30 PM daily, offering special dishes alongside an extensive wine list and real ales. A secluded beer terrace provides riverside views for outdoor dining.
