A Yorkshire treat.
Room very clean / bed comfortable / Food excellent though the breakfast menu was a little reduced from what I had read online e.g. lack of fish items (smoked haddock,etc.).
The staff were very friendly and helpful. A most enjoyable stay.

Will stay again
An enjoyable stay. Lovely room, great view, gorgeous breakfast and excellent customer service. The concierge’s service with your car was perfect for a city with so little parking.
We enjoyed our stay at the Dean Court hotel. The location can't be beat! Walkable to everywhere and right next to the minster. A delicious breakfast was included as well. The room was comfortable and spacious for our family of 3. The staff were friendly and helpful. They even stores our bags for part of the day. The only negative was the moisture in the bathroom. There was black mold on the ceiling in a few places.

Not a bad hotel, party revellers spoiled the trip
Aircon vent pipe stuck outside through open single glazed window, not a good start, party revellers still having a blast in the street below at 3am also didnt help matters, whilst staff where working flat out reception isnt permanently staffed at certain times. Bathroom is a little small sink crammed in a corner, overall for the price just ok

Visit to York
Staff are magic and valet parking is very very good. Whole place, barring the showers, needs refurbishing. The carpets definitely need a serious clean or replacement.
A better area for use as a lounge by guests would be good.
Outside is Noisy late at night, and early morning

Fantastic location right next to York Minster. Room was very spacious and comfortable. The weather was warm/hot - the hotel provided not one, but two tower fans for comfort. Only had breakfast which was very good. Staff were very professional and friendly. Highly recommended.

Charming place. The staff is wonderful and the location can't be beat. Laylit of the room was a bit odd and I changed my head on the ceiling more than once. However I think it was worth it to wake up to view of the Minster in the morning.
