One of the worst places I've ever stayed! Arriving there and the location was great, a couple minutes walk from York Minster, but that's pretty much where the highlights end. Going in you have to go straight through the small pub, everything felt really cramped. As soon as we went in, we knew we wouldn't be staying long! The room we were in was right next to the courtyard, so we heard everyone outside drinking, smoking, listening to music up until 12am when the bell for last orders rang. Safe to say, we didn't get much sleep that night! Not to mention the room was absolutely boiling, far too hot! Breakfast was also bad, really awkward with everyone who stayed the night in one room, with the radio on really quiet. The food tasted as bad as it looked, I thought the salmon was out of date! And it was so salty. We checked out early (was originally supposed to be there for 2 nights) and found somewhere else - much better! And we couldn't leave quick enough. It nearly ruined our weekend away, but thankfully we were able to leave early. I definitely wouldn't recommend staying here. And most other reviews say the food is bad, and the prices of drinks too. The history is interesting and the only thing it has going for it, otherwise avoid at all costs!

What's not to love? It's right in the middle of everything. The view from the room was amazing. Right outside the hotel you're in the historic shopping area, with its tiny roads, quaint shops, and more haunted locations than you can count. And when you're done, have a pint downstair in the Guy Fawkes pub before heading up to bed. Just watch out for the wobbly floors and tilting stairs. But after almost 500 years what do you expect. All part of the charm. It was a brilliant stay

Really central location, lovely and kind staff, and a special place to stay! (Old, slanty floors and wavy glass windows provide charm!) We loved how close the hotel was to all the attractions, and the history of the location made it feel extra special!

Disappointed
It wasn’t clear to me that this hotel is actually a pub. Our room was next to the beer garden. We had people eating/smoking right outside our bedroom window. Fortunately it was on,y Thursday night. I imagine it would be unbearably noisy on a Friday or Saturday.

Very well situated for the City centre and easy walking distance from the train station. All attractions easily accessible within short walking distances. The inn is very busy and the food was very nice. The room we were in was clean but it was certainly starting to look tired. This is the second time staying at the Guy Fawkes and I would be happy to stay there again.

Checkin was very strange. isn’t a checkin counter (understand it’s old) we checked in over tray of dirty cups and dishes on table near a sign that said “receptionist”. We were early, so they said we could leave our bags there by table behind the dirty dishes and they’d put them in our room when ready. That was it. This is a seventeenth century structure so be prepared. It feels like that. we had room at very top (14). It was “a suite” and was strangest, oldest, creepiest room I’ve ever stayed. room was clean, appointed with very old furniture and creepy photos. could have been an attic, large odd rooms and spaces. watch your head! A CON was the lack of instruction from staff. No info about our strange room and figuring out how to work things. instruction pamphlet about the room, history, fire escape safety, and how to work things would be nice to have. Lastly, room slanted greatly to right, not quite 45* angle. Many flights to get to room, stairs tilted so that a metal rod was placed to hold stair landing secure. That was interesting. In closing, this certainly WAS an experience. Know what to expect when you book here and you’ll have an interesting historic stay!! Not great service, it’s a tourist trap so the staff can’t give hotel guests any real attention or keep track of who’s coming and going. I wouldn’t stay here again, but can certainly say I’ve been and it was a strange experience.

Great location and lovely staff in the pub and restaurant. Clean and comfortable and unique. Our room window faced the beer garden so was a bit noisy, best to ask for a room other than 12 if that would bother you. Could use better lighting for reading, otherwise was a wonderful stay.

We stayed in the suite and it was extremely cold there was no heating in the room and the portable heater they provided was not working, shower was warm not hot which was a massive let down as the room itself was nice clean and spooky.

Very unique property with amazing views of the minster and so incredibly close! We stayed in the top room which is basically its own apartment, such a great view of the minster and super quirky room! This room didn't disappoint and was amazing. You're paying for the location and be mindful it is an inn, not a hotel, therefore service / check in is done at the bar. This was a little suprising and concerning at first given the hotel price paid, HOWEVER, you are paying for a stunning view, location and awesome rooms.

The setting is unique; rooms within an inn, within inches of dining customers. The pub closes early enough that their revelry didn’t keep us awake. We just couldn’t freely use the window for light and air because it’s anything but private. But we will remember having slept near Guy Fawkes’ birthplace.

We really felt that this property was overrated, and also misrepresented... it was portrayed as much fancier and cooler than it was. The room was tiny, cramped, and crypt like,and the overall inn itself was small, dark and cramped as well. It seemed clean on the surface, but the whole experience felt grimy, and I didn't really want to set anything down in our room. I dreaded going back to the property at the end of the day, and felt claustrophobic and uncomfortable the whole time we were there. Honestly, we should have checked out and gone somewhere else, but we didn't realize that it was an option, as we had prepaid for the stay. Additionally, the property was located in the most cramped, overly touristy area in York, and there were throngs of people outside at all times. This is a terrible, touristy location. The noise levels were unbelievable, and I can't believe that there were no warnings about this in advance. The room is over a noisy pub, and there was loud drunken revelry below us and outside the window which kept waking us up. The staff seemed annoyed by working there, and there was a general lack of care and attention in general. Also, some people might have thought that the age and deterioration of the building was quaint and historic, but the room slanted really dramatically and it made it difficult to walk around. The bed was loud and creaky, and the sheets were rough like sandpaper. This was one of the worst places we have ever stayed!
