Very close to centre
The rooms in need of re_ decorating
Walkable from the York station carrying two heavy carriers (as a woman). Comfy, cozy pretty interior, and most of all, the BEST staff. I am willing to visit again with my loved ones.

Friendly hotel in a good location
Fairly busy road that the hotel is on
the place was really lovely, clean, excellent breakfast, and not too far from the train station, and close to shambles
the only downside which is no fault of the staff, was the noise on the road outside at night, I suppose if your room faced the back it would be ok
Comfortable. Hosts very nice welcoming and helpful.
Nothing.
Tutto.
Solo le camere un po’ datate.
La situació, a 10, de l'estació del tren i a 15, del centre. L'esmorzar molt complert. És un lloc tranquil i es descansa bé per la nit sense soroll
La pujada al segon pis sense ascensor
Hubby apent I night here. Was pleased with everything
It was clean, tidy and a lovely place.
A bit dated furniture but that’s just preference- nothing wrong with the property at all :)

The only place I'll stop in York
Everything
This is a lovely B and B. It was about 5 mins walk from the train station although about 25 mins walk from the city centre. We chose to walk rather than use the bus. We had been on the road a while so had large baggage. Tarquin carried the cases upstairs for us. We were thrilled with the extra touches in the room - bottled water, Yorkie bar, cookies, tea coffee and hot chocolate. This was replenished in the morning. The room was comfortable and included a desk, TV and 2 chairs. A fan was available. The road outside was quite noisy from the traffic until about midnight. The breakfast was excellent. Cooked breakfast and other options were available and there was a buffet with fruit juice, yoghurt, various cereals, grapefruit and fresh fruit salad containing a wide variety of fruit. Tea/coffee/hot chocolate was served by the waitress.
My only suggestion would be extra hooks for coats etc. However, there was a rail with a few hangers.
Easy to find and good parking. Great location for the city centre
Very clean, staff very welcoming and friendly. Breakfast was great.
Welcoming, comfortable and clean rooms, plenty of little added extras. All instructions re arrival very clear. Delicious breakfast cooked to order (order the previous day/evening) with lots of options.
Free parking , about 15 mins walk to the ciry
Shower power could be better
Apple House was perfect. Great location VFM, hosts amazing, breakfast delicious. Every last details had been thought about even down to extras in your room. Highly recommended
Breakfast excellent.
Some of the room's features could use an upgrade.
I had a wonderful room in the loft with kitchen facilities and even a much needed washing machine. I had been in a higher rated hotel in Baron Tweed and coming here was like moving from the dog kennel into the palace! Because it was the loft my room has a sloping ceiling which might be difficult for taller people. For me it was perfect as I am only 5 foot eight. Fine breakfast with a very generous fruit bowl, yoghurts, fruits, fruit juices et cetera as well as the cooked English breakfast.
No complaints
Great location within walking distance of York minster, York train station, the National railway museum and a very good Wetherspoons. Comfortable beds, nice rooms and room 2 had a view of the trains going past without being too close and noisy. Great fried breakfast, with cereals, yoghurts, fruit etc. Myself and my teenage son would definitely stay again.

The hosts are so warm hearted, and were trying to help us whenever they figured out what were in our need. They even designed new breakfast to suit our wishes.
Everything is just excellent and beyond my expectation. We have nothing to complain.
It was close to the town bars and restrants host's were friendly breakfast was nice would definitely recommend
A very comfy bed and the room cosy just for a night stay
The only reason was just not a lot of plugs to plug in chargers but the rest everything was good
Location and professional from the owners
Not much but maybe a refurbish in today’s environment
Breakfast was value for money and very tasty. Rooms were bright airy, comfortable kept to high standard
Room was very dated and furniture and flooring was old but great location, owners were very pleasant and helpful and breakfast was wonderful ful.
The furniture in the room
Friendly and helpful staff plus lovely breakfast 😋
The shower was very small with no hand held shower head
Cosy room and great breakfast. Very quiet. Comfortable bed.
Comfortable but very basic. Room exceptionally warm. The fan was very limited.
The shower flooded the bathroom. But it had great pressure.
Very good staff
Excellant Breakfast
Location was great and the breakfast was lovely. Thank you
Nothing to dislike.
Nice hosts. Free car park. Comfy bed. Clean linen.
Small room. Old furniture. Dour decor throughout.
The room was a good size. A fan was available which was needed because it was very hot weather. Breakfast choice is very good. Friendly staff. Good location but is on a busy road.
Duvet is too heavy for summer even if it hadn't been such hot weather.

A very pleasant place to stay a few nights, well-located near the train station and old town, with some good restaurants, cafes, and grocers a few minute's walk. The breakfast was tasty and the owners were very kind and helpful.

Excellent breakfast, really comfortable bed, nice room, lovely hosts. The location was also great asnjustba short walk into the city. Plenty of parking space too. Some lovely touches in the room...husband enjoyed the free chocolate and the biscuits 😋.
Ottima posizione per raggiungere a piedi il centro di York. Camera pulita e adatta a due persone adulte, bagno grande con tutto il necessario.
Really friendly people running the B&B, good breakfast, comfortable bed, good location, great value for money.
Breakfast was very good
Everything couldn’t have asked for a better hotel, and will stay there again in the future.
Nothing it was perfect.
Was local to everything
Room was very dusty needed a good clean, the shower was all black in the corners.
The staircase leading up to the attic room felt like it was used for storage with Hoover's left out, travel cots, etc. The room contained a small kitchen (!). All through the night, I was woken each time the motor of the fridge started to run. The ensuite had a sizeable gap running the length of the wall dividing it from the bedroom. Not ideal if I were sharing the room with another. Very hot at the top of the property but unable to open windows due to noise of nearby train station. I arrived to check in with a friend who was staying at a property nearby. I felt I was treated with suspicion as to whether 2 of us were intending to share the room when it was only booked for 1.
Good for price
Nothing
Location, breakfast, very polite staff.
Mattress was too firm, even though it had a topper, it was uncomfortable 😐
- Convenient location (in between Rail Station and City Center) - Very comfortable and warm bed - Very nice hosts - Kettle with tea/coffee and water in the room
Not great soundproofing between rooms, but that was not an issue for us.
The hosts were very welcoming helpful and friendly.

Breakfast was excellent. The breakfast rooms, were also reasonably spacious. Walking distance to the city centre. But there was also a bus stop outside the Apple House if you preferred to not walk. The Apple house is situated on a main road making it easy to get to
There is no lift making the upper floors difficult to access if you have mobility issues, however there are 2 ground floor rooms available
Meget sødt personale. Et dejligt værelse med udsigt til togene, uden at de generede. Gode parkeringforhold, tæt på bymuren, fin gåtur til byen. Rigtig fin morgenmad, hurtig betjening.
Cute little room. Friendly stuff. Good breakfast. Perfect location! We highly recommend it!
Very homely and comfortable

Mooie authentiek. Loopafstand centrum. Pubs in de buurt. Aardig personeel. Parkeren ideaal. Aan onze uitvalsweg naar Skipton.
4 trappen. Maar het lukte wel.
Friendly reception delicious breakfast
The breakfast is prefect, lots of healthy options.
Top floor in converted attic. Too cramped. Air Conditioner not working and could not be fixed. Room was 35C ! Too many narrow stairs I and my wife are over 80 and found it hard. Not alternative accomodation.
Car parking, breakfasts
We were in a back room and in the very hot weather it was too noisy near the railway to leave the windows open
De kamer was goed uitgerust: koelkast, magnetron en zelfs wasmachine. De eigenaar was vriendelijk. Plek in de stad was prima.
Ik de week ervoor een upgrade gedaan naar een duurdere kamer met airco, maar die werkte niet. De eigenaar heeft geprobeerd hem te maken maar dat lukte niet. Het was bloedheet op de zolder. Een compensatie was hier op zijn plaats geweest. Verder vond ik alles wat gedateerd en niet helemaal schoon.
Outstanding breakfast, good location near the train station

Everything really
Frokosten var fantastisk med både varm mat, kornblandinger og fruktsalat med friske bær. Rommet og omgivelsene var rene og ryddige. Fellesrommet var perfekt til brettspill på kveldene. Beliggenheten, kort vei til sentrum og snarvei til togstasjonen. Spisesteder og dagligvarer i umiddelbar nærhet. Kino i nabolaget. Personalet var hyggelige og hjelpsomme.
Det var hetebølge og da ble det litt for varmt på rommet. Vifta hjalp litt. Ingen mulighet til å holde drikke kaldt på rommet.
I liked the location, nearby the Railway Station and a short walk to the National Railway Museum it suited me very well.
Not a lot I can say, it would be unfair to comment on AC as thrre was a heatwave and had provided a fan that managed to cool me down through the night
The location was great, with a car park and not too far from York city centre. The rooms were clean and well equipped. Breakfast was delicious and they catered for my husband’s coeliac disease. Would stay here again when visiting York!
La señora que nos atendió muy amable , el desayuno a elegir el plato principal , yo elegí el british, muy rico todo, aparte una mesa con opciones de dulce, yogurt , fruta fresca , cereales. La habitación en el ático , seria el 3er piso , difícil subir las valijas, pero tenia lavarropas, cocina , una mesa con dos sillas. Nos esperaban con chocolate que me hizo muy bien apenas llegué!! Aparte había té , café . La cama muy cómoda, si bien hizo mucho calor había aire acondicionado!!! Estuvo muy bueno , lo recomiendo!
Todo excelente, solo tener cuidado si no pueden subir las valijas , elijan una habitación mas abajo.
The location was excellent. The fact there was a carpark at the property was really useful. The breakfast was great. The room comfortable.
The shower head was too big for the size of the shower cubicle and the shower cubicle felt a bit claustrophobic.
The owners were very nice and helpful. The breakfast was very nice. We liked the location with ab
We liked the location to both train station and city centre and reasonable price compared to hotels.
The Apple House was clean and tidy, but requires an internal makeover of the decoration and fittings.
Clean Good size room and bathroom Near to city center Nice staff / we left our bags untill train timing after checkout Quit
My room was accessed while I was out by a plumber - would have liked to know they were coming in prior…

Close to main town centre, free parking and breakfast included in the price.
早餐很豐富美味,老闆娘和員工都很親切和善。房間每天都會清潔。床舖很乾淨。
房間會聽得到火車的聲音,但不會造成我們的困擾
Very comfortable stay, great breakfast, location was easy walk to explore York and staff were attentive and helpful.
That we didn't stay longer.
I thought the location was very good, we found it perfect for our visit. It was a quick walk into town and a short taxi ride to the races. The hospitality was very nice, we were made to feel very welcome and they went out their way to please. We enjoyed the breakfast too, lots of choice of healthy options too.
The only thing that let the accomodation down was the shower, it took a while to get the temperature right and even then the water pressure was quite low.
Location, Danielle and team very welcoming and helpful,
freundliche begrüssung mit infos über york :) doppeltes kissen, wow. besitzer:innen wohnen nah, immer jemand erreichbar. geräumig für ein "kleines" zimmer, was wir gebucht haben. stadtzentrum sehr gut zu fuss erreichbar. bahnhof auch sehr nah (inklusive tipp für eine abkürzung vor anreise)
dusche war etwas niedrig für mich (185cm), scheint unter einer treppenschräge eingebaut. etwas eigenartiger geruch (putzmittel?) den wir etwas unangenehm empfanden, verflog mit der zeit. es gab ein fenster, aber von der treppe zum parkplatz hat man genau in unser zimmer geschaut (wir hatten die wahl zwischen dunkelheit und weniger privatsphäre). im kamin und in den radiatoren gab es schon eine menge staub (ansonsten aber sauber). insgesamt alles nicht so schlimm, würden beim nächsten mal vielleicht einfach ein anderes zimmer nehmen :)
Everything, the location, room and service was second to none, they were so friendly and accommodating. Thank you for everything
Nothing.
Excellent breakfast, very friendly staff / hosts
Bedrooms a bit dated, room wasn't very big so kept knocking our legs off the wooden bed.
Resimlerde gorundugu gibi olmasi odanin buyuklugu
Otel olarak insaa edilmemis, evden donusturme olmus. Mobilyalar da buna gore. Kurumsal bir yapi yok
Location was great the bed was very comfortable
Front step was very high Didn’t effect us but 2older women had a bit of trouble Would be a easy fix did tell owner
Very good service. Excellent breakfast promptly cooked.
The staff was incredibly friendly and very helpful - telling us about all the good places to go for dinner that weren't far away. The room was clean and comfortable and the facilities were all good. Great location too, everything was within a 15/20 minute walk.
If I had to be slightly critical of anything, the room was a little dated and could do with a little modernising. But it was comfortable, clean and functional so not really a complaint.
The location was perfect offered a good breakfast and free parking
