Location is perfect. We have stayed here twice before and had a river view room, which was lovely. The breakfast is superb and there is plenty of choice to cater for everyone. We didn't have a river view this time, which we would have liked, but the extra per night for one of those was a bit steep. There are a lot of older guests, which suits us. No large single sex groups are allowed.
On the banks of the River Foss, Novotel York Center is located near the historical city walls and a short river stroll to the center.

Although abounding in reminders of the past, York is very much a city for the here and now, with excellent shops, bars and restaurants, many along the River Ouse. Surrounding it are the medieval city walls – the longest and best preserved in England – and many of the gates that once gave access to the city.
Walk the walls for wonderful views of the city and towering York Minster. Standing proud on a hill, this cavernous church is the seat of the Archbishop of York, the 2nd highest position in the Church of England.
A little south is The Shambles, a narrow street with medieval buildings that now house quaint shops. Going further back in time is the Jorvik Centre, a fascinating museum showcasing the city’s Viking remains. You can even try out archaeology for yourself at the DIG excavation pits, with replica finds from York’s Roman, Viking, medieval and Victorian eras.
Other York attractions include the National Railway Museum, home to the Flying Scotsman and Mallard trains. Around a 30-minute drive away, Castle Howard is a stately home on an over 1,000-acre estate.
Leeds-Bradford Airport is the nearest airport, and there's a great range of hotels, B&Bs and guesthouses in York and on the outskirts available on Booking.com.

Bit of both worlds - of course there is the modern with the usual shops but there is another side too.
The Shambles is like stepping back into Harry Potter and the ramparts which can be walked around are just fantastic. Then there is the Minster but do walk there if possible as parking pretty horrendous as you might expect.
Museums and galleries to explore and if your better half doesn't go for all the history stuff then leave them in the coffee houses and vast array of shops and meet back up later.
Easy to get around if you don't mind walking a bit and often uphill ( well slight inclines anyway). The bridges are lovely too and make easy muster points.
Have a drive around the surrounding countryside too - Beverley and Pocklington and Stamford Bridge - all easy driving and well worth that day out.
Just lovely.

York is an absolute must.
York is an absolute must. Out of 9 cities in the UK over 2.5 weeks, it is in our top 2-3. It is full of history, character, and uniqueness you will not find anywhere else. The Minster was our favorite (even over Westminster). We loved walking the cobble streets, the Shambles, shopping, pubs, restaurants, the Wall, learning of the significant pivotal history York was. We will be back!

A walk around the walls. The railway museum was brilliant.
A walk around the walls. The railway museum was brilliant. The Treasurer's House (NT) was very interesting with a lovely cafe and garden. Both cafe and garden can be visited without paying the entrance fee. Evensong at the Minster was lovely and the interior as beautiful as the outside. York is a great place to amble around, nice shops, lots of good places to eat and drink. Second visit to Little Italy and the food was delicious. Interesting architecture.

The peaceful Museum gardens; Bettys classy cafe; the Shambles and the Jorvik museum; the cathedral; All worth a visit. A word of caution - this old city centre is a mix of paving slabs, cobble streets and block paving with uneven placement which could cause you to trip. There are many places to eat and drink and there are also uber expensive jewellery shops as well as the usual everyday shopping areas. If you feel energetic walk along the remains of the old city walls for great views.
We started travelling very early in the morning. By the time we arrived at the hotel, we were exhausted and it was still too early to check in. The gentleman at the reception was very kind to find us a room to rest at no extra charge, we really appreciated especially travelling with our very young daughter. The location was good, in a quiet area, a short drive to York city centre. Plenty of choices for breakfast, room was spacious, very comfy beds, heat was very good for an early winter trip.
Amazing experience! Perfect example of what a Hotel should be. Rooms very clean and view was crazy. Very friendly and helpfull staff, drinks in the Paddle Room was simply delicious, especially cocktails. Only 5 minutes walk from the city centre.
We have been welcomed from John, the General Manager, who helped us with checking in and gave us some important advices about what to do in town during our trip.
Highly Recommend this hotel to everyone who visits York.
Will be back for sure!
The location was very good. There was plenty of transportation. The city buses and the tour buses had stops close by. And the main part of town was within walkable distance. I had to pay extra for breakfast and it was a little expensive but it was readily available and tasty with choices. The room was cozy and comfortable. The shower was one of the best I experienced over my five weeks of England travel. The staff were friendly and helpful.
A very good and excellent choice of complimentary breakfast options. The staff were all pleasant and polite and we were impressed with the gym facility, which had a selection of clean towels and a water dispenser if required. The hotel is excellently situated for the city centre attractions and facilities, and the associated Q-Park car parks were similarly convenient. We would definitely recommend this hotel if staying in York.
A nice, unassuming guest house with simple accommodations. The rooms are small but use the space well. The bathroom is tiny but again, this is a guest house and not a four-star hotel. The owner is very friendly and helpful, and for five pounds prepares a wonderful breakfast of a ham sandwich and coffee. The ham (bacon) is fresh from a local butcher. Located 10 minutes by foot from the Minster and central York.
Best thing was the hotel's location...is five minutes from the train station, ten from the Shambles, YorkMinister and Old City. Rooms were sufficient size, with view of old architecture from them. Front reception staff were wonderful. Check-in and checkout were both quick. We were allowed to store luggage there for several hours on either side of our reservation.
The hotel is in an excellent location for visitors to York, walking distance to various heritage sites. The building itself is very historic, charming and clean, I was upgraded to a junior suite (thank you) which gave a little more space for the 3 night visit. The room was comfortable and well serviced. Breakfast was nice, bar was pleasant and the staff were helpful.
Returning many times as a lover of this delightful country house hotel in charming and convenient surroundings. Great access into York City Centre, but once within the hotel grounds you could be deep in the country. Everything meets expectations with reasonable prices that are clearly flexible and influenced by occupation rates.
Great hotel which is perfectly located for getting around all the major attractions. Rooms are lovely and clean. Breakfast was excellent and very good value. What really makes this hotel is the Staff each and every one of them were friendly and helpful and next time we return to York we will definitely stay there again.
The room was lovely. it had everything you would expect in a hotel plus more. The owner was very thoughtful giving us a list of information regarding the facilities in York. It's only a couple of minutes walking to the city centre. Overall, this place was a great choice to stay. We will definitely be coming back again.
The hotel is very lovely, everything is decorated well, rooms were clean, an assortment of tea/coffee/hot chocolate in the room. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. We only stayed one night but it was a wonderful stay and I'd definitely stay there again for any time spent in York.
Breakfast was excellent! Room was a good size and location was easy walking distance to York city center. Staff was wonderful and accommodating.
A note to Americans who have not traveled in England before: bring your own washcloths - overnight accommodations do not provide them.
The hotel’s interior is beautiful and it’s in a fantastic part of York, close to the city centre but set slightly apart. The staff were lovely - bonus points for the gorgeous cat. We didn’t have breakfast this time but last time we stayed the garden was lovely for a drink.
Room was large and spacious. Nice large bed and shower. We were celebrating my birthday and the hotel staff had left some Prosecco and treats for me which was lovely and very much appreciated. Location was 10 minutes walk from the centre of York so ideal.
City centre location. Faultless. Noisy at times but we didn’t mind. There to explore. York is just stunning. Very quirky hotel. Love the decor. The entrance. The uniqueness. Pink bar downstairs amazing cocktails. Warm room. Pillows beautiful.
Very well situated for York Railway Station and a short walk into the City Centre. Nice modern hotel with good sized bedroom and walk in shower. Ideal for a short stay either business or leisure. Breakfast plentiful and well organised.
Ideally located for the City Centre and York races, this lovely hotel reminds me of stays as a child as though sone of the decor is dated it's very clean and the staff are very friendly it's also excellent value for money too.
It was a short walk into York City centre which is great because we got to see quite a bit in a short amount of time. Staff was friendly and always had service with a smile. Breakfast was nice. A good budget hotel.
It was a beautiful hotel, the room finish was immaculate and was very cosy. The location was also great to walk through the gardens to reach the centre of York. Would definitely stay here again!
Beautiful boutique hotel with only a short walk to york minister. The staff went above and beyond in so many areas to make our stay perfect! Amazing room called the "Yorkie"
