Park Inn York, York - Reviews & Ratings"We normally stay at another hotel in York but we were unable to get in that weekend. It is a hotel within close proximity to The Park Inn, and you get far more for your money including a breakfast and a room which is of better standards." (108959511)
The hotel was clean. The location of the hotel was excellent,close to shops, bars and restaurants, which is what we wanted for the weekend.
The overall value for money was poor! The rooms were small, we paid for a double room but it was two single beds pushed together with a quilt which was far too small for the bed and were only given one pillow each! The breakfast was not included in the price!

We would have have preferred a bath with overhead shower facilities and the shower facility although adequate was messy and sprayed out on to the bathroom floor.

Park Inn York, York - Reviews & Ratings"After a negative start, found the room to be in good order, clean. Strange layout of the hotel. Had to take 2 lifts to get to the room and no stairs as an alternative except the fire escape. Not very good if you are claustraphobic and can't use lifts!" (108268536)
Had to queue when checking in and out. Not acknowledged by reception staff while waiting. Unwelcoming and unfriendly attitude from the staff member who checked us in.

The rooms were very comfortable and clean. We found the reception staff very friendly and helpful and will be staying in this hotel when we visit York again. This hotel is within easy access to the attractions and the night life of York.
The only bad point was the £12 a day parking charge.

The hotel was very clean, quiet and in a good central location.
The lifts need to be upgraded, we were on the 8th floor and felt we spent ages waiting for lifts to arrive.

Lovely hotel, helpful and friendly staff.
Thought breakfast for 2 at £27 was very overpriced! Glad I actually had a full english and not just a glass of orange.

Park Inn York, York - Reviews & Ratings"cheap but chearfull and served its purpose of somewhere to crash after a night out however was a little dirty and felt as if a lick of paint had not brought the place up to scratch it needs more work!" (107381632)
cheap, centrally located for nightlife, visible from a distance so you can find it even when drunk as a lord, efficient reception staff
dated feel, appeared unclean, lack of temperature control as place was boiling hot, kitchen smells lingering through the hotel corridors, confusing layout, small car park which is very claustrophobic and only just suitable for 4x4 vehicles

Park Inn York, York - Reviews & Ratings"We had a refurbed room in the main part of the hotel which was comfortable and well decorated. Open plan wardrobes and no drawers in the room may not suit everyone though. Nice bar overlooking the river and breakfast was as you would expect from a buffet choice." (107890067)
The hotel is in a great location, just a few minutes walk to the city centre but in an area with bars/restaurants if you want to stay local. 10 min taxi to the Racecourse.
Nicely appointed bathroom with shower cubicle rather than a bath, unfortunately not a lot of power in the shower!!

The position of the hotel to the centre of York is excellant, the room was spotlessly clean & very comfortable,and the parking was a plus

Would have been better if we could have had an appointment with beautician maybe you could have a booking system with the hotel instead of direct to her as she was away for weekend but no one knew this !

Park Inn York, York - Reviews & Ratings"overall it was an enjoyable stay, the breakfast was excellent, lots of choices and you could eat as much or as little as you liked. the restaurant was very pleasant and the staff most helpful....the staff were clean and tidy in appearance and so was the hotel in general. would recommend this hotel." (107669826)
nothing was too much trouble, good food in the restaurant and also room service was good value. lovely view from the room of the river ouse and york cathedral,in walking distance from the train station and into the city of york..had a really good, relaxing and enjoyable week-end...would recommend this hotel....
the only downside was that our room had an interconnecting door and the neighbours were rather loud, which meant we heard every word and noise they made.

"Not bad really, looks a bit worn round the edges but the location is superb" (108364874)
Good atmosphere, great location, superb view of the minster, Nice Christmas decorations & helpful staff
The hotels lifts have major problems and may be life expired. If it was my hotel I would want a full survey carried out by an expert independant of the companies lift maintenance contractors. Having to step up or down on entering or leaving the lift is really unacceptable and you could easily end up with a substantial claim for damages were one of your guests to trip and hurt themselves. Floor allignment should be a relativly easy problem to fix, but I also suspect with the amount of vibration that there is considerable wear in the guides. The room had only one chair - should have had 2. It looks like the room has had a designer influence and looks very pretty but is impractical in all sorts of ways - if you contact me I will detail them for you.
