Best Hotels in York

York is one of the most visited cities in the country and one of the smallest, so the right area and an early booking matter. Here is how to choose.

Within the walls for atmosphere

Inside the city walls, around the Minster and the old streets, the hotels have the most character, and the walk from the station is short.

Micklegate for a livelier evening

Micklegate has bars and restaurants on almost every corner, and it suits an evening that should have more energy.

Bishopthorpe Road for a local, quiet feel

What actually matters when choosing

York is compact and the station sits just outside the walls, so most hotels are a short walk or a very short taxi. Weekends, race days and the Christmas market fill every room, so book well ahead, and remember that some old streets are narrow and hard to reach by car.

How TheDirectory fits into this
