The Best Western York House Hotel enjoys a fantastic location right across from the beach, where you can even hear the calming sound of the waves from your room, and it's conveniently close to the pier. Many guests have enjoyed the sea view from their rooms, some of which are spacious, and the hotel also features a pleasant, clean swimming pool. Breakfast is frequently mentioned as a highlight, with a tasty and varied buffet on offer; though some guests have noted that the hotel presents a slightly dated appearance in certain areas, overall, it is considered good value.

The breakfast buffet offered many options. The staff was helpful.
The carpet in my room had stains. I was unable to regulate the temperature. The room was too warm. The noise from neighboring rooms was noticeable at night, so sleeping was difficult.
