The Farthings

Good location, just a short walk into the city. Nice breakfast and more than enough parking just outside. Only complaints were a very soft bed (personal preference) and a shower that lacked pressure.

Nice place, check in was easy with the lockbox and easily accessible. On street parking was fine, quite a few spaces and on a fairly quiet street. Room was good, slightly old fashioned/not the most modern, but the bed was comfortable and the room was a good size. The choice of teas/coffees and biscuits in the room was a nice touch. The shower was a bit weak. Breakfast was ok, nice choice although not the best pancakes ever.

Lovely rooms with well made beds- provided plenty of warmth which is good since middle of February is quite cold. Brilliant location, within sensible walking distance of city centre and the station with reasonably safe walking routes to both, but without the downside of all the noise since it’s in a more residential area allowing for a better nights sleep versus the big brand hotels on the main streets. However, the real standouts are the wonderful owners who were very helpful and understanding throughout my stay and the quality breakfasts (the pancakes and the sausage sandwich were great). When I booked, I was moderately worried about shared bathrooms for my room but these turned out to be very clean at all points in the day so was not an issue, plus having a choice of 2 is very handy in case one is in use- never had to wait for one to become available. All in all very glad I booked a stay here, will now be the first place I check availability for on future visits to York. Thank you for the great stay.

We had a double room with en-suite shower and toilet. It was very clean, well-equipped, comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was excellent with lots of options and a lovely "full English" as well. Parking needed to be requested prior to arrival and Helen then arranged for an online permit that allowed us park in the street outside. That went very smoothly. It took only about 20mins to walk to the city centre with numerous different routes to choose to do so which allowed us to explore even more. The city of York itself is fabulous and we enjoyed seeing in the New Year there. I would highly recommend The Farthings and we will go there again when we next visit York.

The property was close to the centre of York only a short walk Property was ideal staff were so friendly and helpful breakfast was amazing It was an ideal place to staff will definitely be returning

It was my bucket list festive gateway. ❤️ cosiness of my room and breakfast , breakfast bar amazing, Helen lovely her Mum a bit scary... lol.... but over-all i am happy to recommended :) :) :) thank you X

Lovely hotel, with welcoming host, who even parallel parked my car for me outside the hotel when I was struggling to park in the bay (free for guests) outside the hotel! You need to give your registration in advance to the hotel to be allocated a free spot… The hotel is very charming, with a lot of attention to detail and quirky ornaments which I particularly liked, being a cat lover! A hearty full English breakfast and other options are available - there are 2 sittings and you can specify your preference for 8.15 or 9.15 am breakfast the night before on a sheet in the lobby. I stayed in a single room 9 in the attic, which had a TV, tea and coffee making facilities, hair dryer, complimentary make up remover pads, sewing kit and shower cap. It was adjacent to the shared bathroom.

This was an excellent b&b - very comfortable, clean, and cosy. Breakfast was delicious and staff were very polite. Check in and out process was really easy. Helen is really helpful and lovely
