“This boutique hotel, set in a Grade II listed Regency townhouse, impresses with its unique rooms and pantries stocked with complimentary snacks-a touch I found particularly charming. The location, a comfortable walk to York Minster, makes it ideal for exploring the city's historical attractions. I was intrigued by the bespoke spa treatments available in the cellar.”
