York

I accompanied my daughter to the excellent University of York and chose to stay with my wife for 3 nights in this characteristic residence due to its proximity to the university citadel but, with great pleasure, I also discovered that it is a few minutes' walk from the city centre. Our room was equipped with a canopy bed, the mattress was perhaps a little too soft (purely personal taste) but everything else was simply perfect, cozy, orderly and very clean. Not to mention the nice set in the room to enjoy excellent English tea and the courtesy and kindness of the present mistress of Shirley's house.

Great English-style residence

We arrived on Friday night and left within literally ten minutes.. room was nothing like the website pictures and smelled damp and musty the door doesn't touch the door checks when locked.. extremely disappointed and still charged £150.. booked another hotel and checked in fifteen minutes later... really can't understand all good reviews of this place as it was completely different from what we were promised!!

Don't stay here

Great value for money, beautiful big room with a four-poster bed and a single but could’ve got another 2 people in. Warm, friendly welcome and 7 min walk to the centre 😊 Breakfast was lovely and would definably go back.

Lovely room, lovley staff and great location

We made a group booking of 6 rooms at the Fourposter Lodge for our quiz team  weekend away!!! All the rooms were adequate and en-suite, if a little dated. However, BEWARE...if you visit..AVOID ROOM 5 ...as it is on a separate boiler to the rest of the house!! 
After an afternoon of sightseeing, we arrived back on Friday night, ready to freshen up with a nice hot shower.. only to find the water was COLD! Nobody appears to live on the premises, so I tried ringing both numbers provided in reception...but to no avail!!!
I ended up boiling a few kettles to obtain hot water!! Apparently the pilot light had blown out on the antiquated boiler situated in the bathroom!!! 
Someone eventually came and sorted the problem whilst we were out that evening ...so I set my alarm to have a shower the following morning before breakfast ....whilst the water was warm!!! 
However, the situation was not sorted....as once again we came back on Saturday evening to the same scenario..NO HOT WATER and no one around!!! 
It’s a shame this happened ,as the rest of our party were happy with their rooms, the location of the place was good and the breakfast lovely. 
It is obvious the boiler in room 5 needs replacing and the room should not be let until it is done!!!!!
I have given a 4 star rating on the response of our friends, but if it had been on our experience, I am afraid it would have been far less!!! 


Quiz trip away!!

We have just come back from a 2 night stay at the B&B Rooms very basic  however bed was not the most comfortable quite hard to sleep on shower pressure not brilliant takes a while to heat up we were there for 2 nights with a group of friends short walk into York itself around 10/15 minutes so location is good or you can get the local bus for £1.20. Breakfast was very nice good quality products cooked breakfast was nicely cooked and enjoyed it there was the option of fruit and cereal also which was nice should you want a change. Staff that served our breakfast was friendly enough. 

Weekend stay 

Stopped for a couple of nights and was good value for money. Rooms were nice and clean and the breakfast good. Parking is on the road outside, but we found a space easily (and free). Friendly owners/staff. Takes 10-15 minutes to walk into the city centre. Would recommend and will return here when visiting York again. 

Nice Place to Stay

This B & B, looked a lot bigger in its website page. Disappointed to find there was no parking available, had to park in next street along and walk back to where we were staying. decided to get bus into York as bus stop only over road. Waiting with a local lady when several police cars drewbup, got out and started running down alleyway, the lady informedbys regular ocvurence as drug dealers near where she lived. Wouldnt have stayed here knowing this in advance.

Meeting friends

Three nights spent with the family, the perfect reception, a well-arranged room, and an excellent breakfast, conveniently located, not far from the centre with a bus stop across the street from the train station.

Just got back from the Four Poster lodge in York and must say was nicely surprised , booked this hotel as our usual hotel in York have put their prices up by quite a bit and decided to give this one a go , lovely and clean with a very friendly " homely" feel about it , breakfasts were spot on ,well cooked with a fruit based alternative , sets you up well for the day . it takes about 10/15 mins nice and steady to walk to the city centre but its flat all the way so no bother , very very limited parking but they tell you this before you turn up so there are no suprises on arrival , like I said it wasn't our  go to hotel in York but it will be from now on

nicely suprised

We have just returned form a three night break at the Fourposter Lodge in York. Our room was large and comfortable and spotlessly clean with a good shower. Excellent breakfast with a lovely, friendly waitress, nothing too much trouble if you wanted something different. As it was Easter, we were offered hot cross buns and there were creme eggs in our room on Easter Sunday which was a thoughtful touch. 
 Parking is on street so if you want your car on a secure car park, you need to look elsewhere but we had no problems with ours. The centre of York is an easy and flat fifteen minute stroll and there is a wetherspoons near by for cheap eats and drinks.
