GGuest UserReview:
I had a pleasant stay at Safestay York Micklegate. The location is excellent, within easy walking distance of York city centre, the railway station, the city walls, and major attractions. The building has a historic character, which makes the hostel feel more unique than a standard budget hotel.
The staff were friendly and helpful, and the check-in process was smooth. The room was basic but comfortable enough for a short stay, and the overall atmosphere was relaxed. For the price and location, it offers very good value, especially for solo travellers or people looking for affordable accommodation in York.
The only thing to keep in mind is that it is still a hostel, so some noise and shared facilities are expected. Overall, I would recommend it for a budget-friendly stay in a very convenient part of York.
GGuest UserWe booked the family room as visiting friends in the village. Well the room was more like a an apartment, with a separate room with two single beds for the kids. Lovely decor and nice bedding. The rooms were immaculate and fitted out to a high standard. Charming views of the river. We had a lovely evening meal downstairs. If you try the speciality Parmo, be warned that a whole one is definitely one for those with a big appetite. The location is great with an easy walk to local shops and centre of the village. The continental breakfast was also very generous and set us up for the day. In summary, we were really impressed with the rooms and would definitely book again for our next visit and would highly recommend it. Thank you to all the team at The Buck.
GGuest UserWhat a little gem of a place. First time visit, travelling on my own for business. Perfect location for me.
Beautiful room, very clean, warm and comfortable with plenty of towels and pillows. Big TV, easy to navigate remote!
Bathroom was spotless, nice complimentary toiletries.
Comfy bed, had a good sleep once I managed to get off, could hear other guests on the corridor, but I guess I was earlier settling in than the average on a Sunday evening (early to work Monday!)
Breakfast was really good quality, fair selection of hot and cold options, lots of fresh fruit on offer too. Very impressed, bit disappointed I arrived later on the Sunday evening and decided not to have an evening meal now!
AAnonymous UserAlthough on a main street it is easily missed especially at night time as there is lack of attractive signs. On site parking is very restricted although there is a public car park about 100 metres down the street. It is close to the village centre. Room was clean; size and decors are reasonable too.
GGuest UserWe loved staying in this little hotel, a large and clean room with comfy bed and pillows, spotlessly clean and well stocked coffee and tea tray. As we stayed on Friday, the carvery was served and the food was good (the beef and roasted carrots was excellent) and plentiful with the price you can't beat. Excellent value for money, the same applies for drinks. Welcoming staff and free parking. Despite being positioned by the road , we had a peaceful night , no outside noise. We will stay again here as all together, it was a good hotel to stay in and I recommend it to others , for visits of Ripon, Fountains Abbey, Dales...
GGuest UserThe location is perfect. Alternative parking was offered if needed, which it was not as we parked in the front of The George. The room was spacious (we were in number 10) with a sitting area and desk for those who require to do work ... the bed was very comfortable. The restaurant was top notch ... we ordered Steak and Ale Pie, which was delicious and Fish and Chips (asked for them to leave off the fresh/mushy peas) ... the fish was enormous, fresh and very tasty ... the fries/chips were homemade.
All in all, we would highly recommend The George.
JJulienAn absolute gem of a place. From the warm welcome to the excellent dinner we were made to feel welcome. The owners are really genuine hosts and know their trade well.
The room was great very cute with all the facilities you’d expect for the price point.
Our previous booking had been cancelled earlier that day and I so glad we ended up at the Castle Arms.
Great value for money in all departments.
We had our dogs with us and felt safe and could see our van from the window of the room. Plus there was plenty of space to run them.
GGuest UserBeautifully appointed room, incredibly quiet until the kitchen fans went on in the morning, but not an issue.
The bathroom was exceptionally clean with everything needed for a long bath if required.
The amenities within the room were fabulous. An incredibly comfortable bed with plenty of wardrobe space if needed.
The only let down was a repair made to the window had left a paint 'scar' that needed repainting.
The pub was very olde wordly and fabulous.
GGuest UserI'm going to give this hotel, Wilson Arms, my highest rating ever!
The accommodation is very reasonably priced, including cooked breakfast - I had a full English.
My room has two arm chairs, comfortable large bed and lovely bathroom. The view from the window couldn't be better.
The food last was also delicious and great value. Good range of beers including two hand drawn.
Only a few rooms and fully booked last night.
Aan_LondonThe kitchen was kept very clean, which left a good impression. However, it was a bit inconvenient as it's a walk in the opposite direction from the city center.
