Minster Walk guest house is in a fantastic, quiet and convenient location for exploring the wonderful and historic city of York.The room was immaculately clean and the bed large and very comfortable. The decor was very quirky and this added to the overall experience. The option of breakfast in bed was too tempting to overlook. Pastries and drinks available in the cosy lounge was also a nice touch. Nearby parking options were also a bonus. Would definitely come again. Highly recommended.

This is a very individual establishment. Very clean with comfortable beds and all you could want from a room. Pretty accessible for all York has to offer. Staff very friendly and I would recommend it if you want a comfortable base to pursue your own aims

My husband and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Minster Walk Guest House for three nights. Our stay was absolutely delightful! Our room was cozy, clean, and quiet with an added benefit of having a view of the Minster. The staff was friendly, warm, and welcoming. The location can’t be beat! It was a short walk into York proper and the Minster Inn pub located next door served the best pizza we’d eaten in years. All in all, of the three hotels we stayed at on our two week vacation I loved the Minster Walk Guest House the most! I highly recommend booking with them.
Reviewer: Juli | Wed 9th Apr 2025 | 3 days ago
We stayed for 2 nights at the beginning of April '25 and we had a really lovely visit and I've already recommended Minister Walk guest house to a friend.From the moment I booked through to arrival, I had regular emails including the recommendation of the pub next door when I asked about it. All the emails were clear and friendly and made my visit really smooth.Walking into the guest house was so refreshing. We loved the quirkiness of the lounge and the feel of the place, which really comfirmed I'd booked an absolute gem, which was confirmed more so when we got into our room. It was clean and tidy and we instantly felt relaxed.The breakfast choices were great and enough. We had breakfast delivered to our room each morning and the food was fresh and hot.The guest house itself was in an ideal position. It's really quiet but only a 5 minute walk to the wall and the centre.I would highly recommend this lovely guest house.

This is a very well run B & B in the perfect location for a stay in York. It is situated beside the ancient walls of the York museum and gardens within sight and earshot of the Minster. We were given the family room at the top which is cleverly presented Harry Potter style. Breakfast was excellent and arrived in a basket outside the door each morning. Thank you for a great stay.

We had a fantastic 2 night stay at the Minster Walk Guest House. From the minute we arrived, the staff were very friendly and helpful, and the room was lovely and spacious, with quirky Viking decor which was a nice touch. The facilities were excellent and everything was nice and clean. We were given the option to have our breakfast delivered to our room each day, which we opted for as a special treat for my daughter’s birthday. The breakfasts were delicious, and included a selection of breakfast barms such as bacon, sausage etc. and a choice of mini pastries or granola with yoghurt. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return, due to it’s fantastic location, right in the heart of York city centre.

So lucky to have found the Minster Walk to stay for a few days. It is within easy walking distance from the train station and is just a short, beautiful walk across the park to the centre of York.We were in room 5 which had lovely views of the Roman wall and York Minster.We felt really looked after and cannot fault anything. I would definitely recommend Minster Walk to family and friends.

Such a lovely experience from initial enquiry and communication with Ruth to the actual stay.We were in room 4 which was spotlessly clean and incredibly comfortable and had an amazing view of the minster. Everything you could need was there from well stocked tea and coffee facilities in the room to the honesty box tuck shop in the lounge plus the free sweets dotted about!Check in and ordering breakfast was simple and efficient and the fact we could drop our bags and collect our keys well before our room was ready made our visit so much easier and fitted in around us rather than the other way around.This was our second visit to the Minster Walk and won’t be our last.

From the moment I booked, everything about the Minster Walk Guest House was different. The communication from the owners was excellent gave us all the information we needed to ensure a seamless visit.On arrival we were enchanted by the decor and gorgeousness of the guesthouse itself. What a beautiful place! Small but perfectly formed and they have thought of everything.From complimentary cakes, to little sweet bowls dotted around, board games, a tuck shop, and a fridge for guest use.Our room was lovely, very comfortable, and the breakfast was superb! Well presented with lots of choice and quality produce.Overall we were so impressed with this place,especially for the price.If we were on 4 In a Bed we would definitely over pay!

An easy 10 minute walk to the train station, even with two large suitcases, and right on the city walls, so very close to everything.
Reviewer: Cherryl| Wed 12th Mar 2025 | 1 month ago
Lovely quaint guesthouse with lots of period features. Very clean room and comfortable bed. Only a 5 minute walk from the Minster to with in walking distance from all the central attractions of York. We were on the second floor and the stairs are twisty and quite narrow so caution was needed especially when carrying luggage, could be difficult for anyone with mobility issues. Parking, which is often an issue in a historic city is not on site. It is a 5 minute walk down the road to dedicated parking bays on the roadside so we dropped the luggage off first before paring up. Lovely place though and we would definitely stay again.

All nicely organised, from the reserved car-parking instructions to the courtesy "Love Hearts" in a very raidable jar greeting us as we walked in.Room was comfortable, nicely laid out and themed and the breakfast baps were an excellent start-up for the day.

A fantastic value-for-money stay, just a short walk from York city centre. The staff are friendly and chatty, making for a warm welcome. The room isn’t huge but has everything you need, including a spacious bathroom with a great sized shower.Everything is clean, with crisp bedding and a comfortable bed—though the pillows are a little firm. Breakfast is a lovely extra, delivered straight to your room, so there’s no need to get dressed early. The tea and coffee facilities are well-stocked with plenty of treats.A very enjoyable stay overall!

We booked Minster Walk as a last minute alternative after our original hotel let us down, and it turned out to be an absolute blessing! The staff here are friendly and will go to any length for you. The place itself is quirkily decorated and has a lot of character, and the communal space downstairs has so many thoughtful details, including complimentary sweets, drinks, board games and even a guest fridge if you want to store some of your own food. The room we had was really cleverly decorated, and very clean, with all the modern facilities despite the building itself being very old. You get the charm of the vintage origin alongside the modern conveniences. My only complaint is that the pillows were too thick for me - I prefer thinner pillows. This is just a personal thing though - the hotel is brilliant and I'd still stay there again.

What a quaint guesthouse! We arrived early to a friendly welcoming and our room was already ready for us which was a bonus. As you walk into the guesthouse the decor is so wonderfully warm and welcoming. We stayed in room 2 which was made up of a theatre design, even down to the two old theatre seats for you to sit down on. There was two glasses of sherry and mince pies waiting for us in the room. The bathroom clean and spacious and I loved the bath. We decided to have breakfast in our room, but you do have the choice to have it in a dining area. It was brought to us in a lovely wicker style basket. Mulled wine and mince pies waiting for you when you came back from a day in York was a lovely touch which just adds to the beauty of this guest house. The staff are warm and welcoming. We had a lovely three night stay and recommend it.

What a little gem this guest house is, thebest accommodation we've stayed in by far in York, we'll definitely be returning. When you first arrive you walk into what I can only describe as a little shop of curiosity, with some lovely complimentary sweet treats and refreshments. They also have a tuck shop that you help yourself too with a honestly box on the wall to pay for your purchases. The quirky rooms were spotlessly clean and we had two small glasses of sherry and a mince pie each in the rooms on our arrival.Breakfast was delivered to our room the next morning in a basket with consisted of fresh orange/apple juice, pasteries and hot bacon/sausage sandwiches.

The Minster walk was very easy to get to from the train Station. Turn left out of the station through the carpark I've the bridge and it just down the road 10 mins. The B & B itself was very nice. The only thing I didn't read correctly was the breakfast is pre ordered.The hot are sausage, bacon or both on a muffin or barm. The Minster walk is about 10 mins walk to the Minster itself. Very clean and the staff are very welcoming.There is a small pub next door, this does close at 8 on a Sunday

1st time staying at Minster Walk and it certainly will not be the last. Easy to get to. In a great location with a very short walk into the City centre. The room was was excellent with a great shower. The bed was so comfy and we struggled to get up the next morning. Great buffet breakfast delivered to room. Sherry and mince pies in room on arrival was a nice touch. The lounge was lovely and hot drinks, mulled wine, and mince pies were available 24/7. We will be back!

I love staying here. It’s unique and each room is different.Here there is history and atmosphere.Very comfortable and clean. Breakfast is served in a basket in your room, if you so wish.Very good so long as you don’t want a full English!The house is in a good position for a gentle walk into the city.This was another return visit and won’t be the last.
Reviewer: J| Mon 2nd Dec 2024 | 4 months ago
Super-stylish guest house on a quiet road very close to the Minster. We arrived on the first day of Advent to find mulled wine warming in the snug and a cloche of mince pies. Lots of other provisions available as a courtesy for guests, plus a downstairs guest fridge. Real open handed generosity at work here. We stayed in a top floor family room full of character and with beautiful views over the Minster - and again that sense that the Minster Walk Guest House had considered everything you might want and provided it in-room. The breakfast was served in a cute basket, a hot bacon/sausage roll/granola and yoghurt/pastries/fruit juice, all freshly made and delicious. I got a cancellation here -mostly it's fully booked a long way in advance. So just grab it while you can!

An excellent guest house!A most pleasant stay within a very traditional roomed building. The guest house has a very homely ambiance to it, everything was presented beautifully. Our room decor was also traditional with high beamed ceilings, a well set out room and bathroom covering all our needs! Very comfortable and quiet! 3-4 minute walk to the main area of the Minster and Shambles, including a freeparking spot for our stay which took a minute to walk to from tbd hotel door. A very pleasant breakfast was brought to our table which again did not disappoint. We would throughly recommend The Minster Guest and wouldn’t hesitate to stop there again.

The people who run it are great, very friendly staff, rooms are very clean and comfortable with lots of little extra touches. Breakfast is very tasty and plentiful with all fresh produce. I can't wait to go back. You are located very close to the minster and all the attractions York has to offer. And a large car park is located 2 minutes walk from the hotel.

I came for a few days to York with my Mum.From the booking we were very well taken care of - we were contacted beforehand to ensure we were ok to manage the flights of stairs to our room in the top floor.Arriving by train it was easy to walk to with the clear instructions provided by the guest house.The position of Minster Walk is excellent and we enjoyed walking through the museum gardens each morning on our way to explore the City.Each evening we walked out to find somewhere to eat from the many excellent restaurants close by.Minster Walk itself was a delightful place to stay.Our room was very spacious, comfortable and well furnished.The bathroom was bright and everything was sparklingly clean with lovely toiletries provided.The decor throughout was fun and quirky and the communal area was cosy and welcoming with lots of seating.Having access to hot drinks both downstairs and in our room was great.The breakfast hamper was a lovely idea - tasty food and just the right amount to set us up for the day, and great that we could choose to eat downstairs or in our room (we did both!).The staff we met were friendly, kind and helpful.All in all a wonderful stay and would definitely stay here again on a visit to York!

Welcoming guest house in the centre of York. Comfortable room, with nice toiletries. Breakfast was delivered to our room. We are both vegan and happy to be catered for. This was especially appreciated when we were left a vegan treat and oat milk sachets. I have stayed in different places as a vegan and this is the first time a place has been so thoughtful. So glad to be returning in the summer.

Found Minster Walk online and how glad we were too.Good communication from start to finish with easy directions to the b n b. (It's right next door to The Minster pub) Great position to the center of York either through the gardens if open, or on the road, either way it's about a 5 minute walk.Onto Minster Walk itself. From first entering it's captivating, with a warm atmosphere and welcome.There is tea, coffee and cake bars to help yourself to at anytime, along with games and books.The room was lovely. Had everything in it we needed and was incredibly clean. The bed was so comfy and the breakfast hamper lovely. We asked for our bacon well done and it was perfect for us.All the people who work there are very nice and them and the owner work hard and it shows.If you want somewhere that's well placed and great value with a comfy bed you can't go far wrong booking here. We liked it so much we have booked again.

Visited York with my 13 yo son over the half term holiday. The Minster Walk guest house was perfectly located, just out of the busier areas, opposite the museum gardens but a short walk to the Minster and the train station. The accommodation was very clean, comfortable and had much more character than any larger hotels I’ve stayed in. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly from the moment we booked to our checkout. My son was made up with having breakfast delivered to the room each day, something I’ve explained won’t be continuing at home. Thanks again and we’ll definitely return in the future.

It was extremely spacious and a big bathroom. There were plenty of outlets and even washcloths! The beds were amazingly comfortable and everything was so clean.Breakfast was great as well and we loved having it brought to our table in a little basket.

The Guest House is in a great location on a quiet street, yet close to all the attractions York has to offer. We received a friendly welcome on arrival, along with clear instructions on how to get to our reserved parking space & our options for breakfast.The Guest House has a cosy atmosphere, with complimentary bowls of sweets, tea, coffee & cakes. There is also a Tuck Shop selling chocolate, crisps and refreshments.We stayed in Room 8, which was decorated in a quirky mix of theatrical medieval furnishings. This is a small room, yet was perfectly adequate for our needs. There were some nice little touches which added to our experience. Lovely complementary toiletries, and a special flannel to take your makeup off! Along with tea & coffee making facilities, there were also sweets & cakes to enjoy.We opted to have thebreakfast in bed option which was yummy, hot bacon & sausage baps, granola & yoghurt with fruit compote and fresh orange juice.The only recommendation I would suggest is, it would be useful to have a shelf in the en-suite to put toiletries on and a rail/hook to hang the towels on.

Our room was the family room and we had plenty of space with the benefit of having separate sleeping areas but still being together. The bedroom & bathroom were bothspotless & beds very comfortable. Very good location from the station and into the main area. We had a wonderful stay.

We stayed for two nights at this lovely guesthouse. It’s perfectly located for walking into the centre and a 10 minute walk from the rail station. It’s cosy and the staff can’t do enough to make sure your stay is perfect, with sweets in the downstairs area and sweets in your room daily. The breakfast hamper is inspired which you can either take downstairs or have on your room. The yoghurt and granola is delicious and the ingredients for the bacon and sausage bap are beautiful. We stayed in room 8 3/4 on the second floor which is a Harry Potter themed and is a family room. Although it’s beautifully decorated it’s a bit difficult to dodge the beams and low window next to the bed, as our heads found out on several occasions! The bathroom is beautiful but again the bath isn’t for tall wizards and witches! There also isn’t any shelving in the bathroom to store toiletries on. If you’ve got a large case it’s worth talking to the owner about booking a room on the ground floor or first floor as dragging a large case up two flights of stairs will be a challenge! These are only small things though as the whole place is just fabulous and we would definitely stay again.

We keep coming back to Minster Walk, as it is so convenient to all local facilities. Train station, York minster, and shops. The accommodation is exactly what we want for our needs, it is unlike hotels which do not give you the high standards we expect. The staff are so good and look after you so well, keep doing what you obviously love.

We stayed at the minister walk B&B for the first time in September this year. Great location and lovely homely accommodation. Stayed in room 8 3/4, Harry Potter themed with excellent views of the minister with lovely roll top bath, also the bed was very comfortable. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay there again in the future .Kind regardsThanksClaire and Chris

We absolutely loved the size, quirky décor & cleanliness of the rooms and shared spaces. The narrow turning stairs are a killer however, particularly with heavy luggage. The proximity to the main York sights was superb.
Reviewer: Trish | Sun 8th Sep 2024 | 7 months ago
We stay here whenever we visit York. We love it. It's a perfect distance from the hustle and bustle of the city centre. It has a quirky interior which is just what I like. Lovely, friendly staff. Very accommodating. You can order breakfast in bed (or eat in the lounge), which is great when you're on your hols. No rushing around in the mornings. Each bedroom is decorated in its own unique way, and the beds are very comfy. On our last visit, we had a birthday and they left us a bottle of fizz which was very thoughtful. Thanks. As long as Minster Walk is here, we'll keep coming back.

Minster Walk Guesthouse was the perfect stay for a two night trip in York. Great communications with our hosts, easy check in and check out, lovely clean room, comfortable beds and charming decor. Location wise it was a 5 minute walk to York Minister and plenty of fantastic pubs and restaurants.Breakfast in bed was a great touch, our hosts couldn’t do enough for us. Thanks so much and can’t wait to visit again ❤️

Reviewer: Pauline W | Thu 5th Sep 2024 | 7 months ago
This is an amazing place -- really comfortable and supportive beds and pillows, an excellent breakfast (with tasty vegan sausage for those who don't eat meat), and a design that is whimsical without being kitschy. Also, you know a B&B is centrally located when it is literally behind the ruins of a 900-year old abbey. If you come visit York (and you should, the city feels both historic and workaday), you could do a lot worse than to stay here.
Reviewer: Aubrey | Wed 4th Sep 2024 | 7 months ago
Wow, what a gem this lovely B&B is! I stayed with my two friends in the family room, which was just perfect for us, as there were three beds in two adjoining rooms. Everything was spotlessly clean andthe beds and room were very comfortable. The fact that you can help yourself to tea/ coffee/ biscuits in the lounge at any time is a lovely touch - and that is in addition to a kettle and drinks in your room.The breakfast hampers are fantastic too - a great choice of food all freshly prepared and delivered in a cute hamper.The staff were all really friendly and helpful and the location is excellent - right in the centre but in a quiet street.Perfect all round and I'll be recommending this lovely place to all of my friends.
Reviewer: Marie W | Tue 3rd Sep 2024 | 7 months ago
The B&B is run by three lovely ladies with great attention to detail.The only criticism I have - and this is complaining at a high level - is that there is no storage space in the bathroom of our guest room. This could be different in the other available rooms.We could still work on that.Otherwise everything was perfect.

Friendly and approachable team who were really helpful when we encountered issues with the parking. Breakfast in bed was an added bonus and delicious! Room was immaculate and bed was super comfy. Great central location also meant we didn’t need to use the car all weekend. Would definitely recommend for a stay in York!

We loved our stay in Minster Walk and York. The Guest House is very central with a short walk into the city. Check in was straightforward and our room was clean and tidy with a comfy bed and delightful toiletries. There was plenty of choice of teas and coffee and sweet treats in the room as well as the guest lounge downstairs. The breakfast hamper in bed was an absolute pleasure. The breakfast bap was delicious. The staff we met were so helpful and caring. We would strongly recommend this guest house and hope that we can return as there is so much to see in York.

The customer service was nothing but amazing and the breakfast was delicious! Everything was how they said it would be and no qualms or disappointments with our stay. We can't wait to go again! The car park is no more than a few minutes walk so no worries for parking.There was a TV in the rooms, teas, coffees, hot chocolates and even sweets and chocolates. The children loved it as much as the adults. Highly recommend.

I love to stay in places that add to my experience of the place that I am visiting, and Minster Walk enhanced both my time and connection to York. The location of the guest house is perfect: convenient and quiet. The building is a lesson in history, while the rooms are offer every modern convenience, being inviting, beautiful, and comfortable. I also loved their breakfast hampers, which offered a relaxing and delicious way to start the day. My family and I explored the U.K. for three weeks, and Minster Walk was perhaps our favorite stay.
Reviewer: Becky J | Wed 7th Aug 2024 | 8 months ago
Staying in York for the weekend, we came across this guest house which looked great and it was! Really cute setting in the communal lounge and individual rooms, great breakfast options, easy check-in and a really short walk from the city centre. Located next to a really great pub which I'd also recommend and we had no issues with noise either.
Reviewer: Jack P | Tue 6th Aug 2024 | 8 months ago
Regularly visit York and it’s sometimes difficult to accommodate 3 people n a room but as a group of girls having a catch up weekend, we found Minster guesthouse. Access to the property was easy from the train station and located in a perfect spot to access all that York has to offer. The accommodation was quirky with lots of trinkets around. We loved the plentiful supply of sweets, the honesty shop for pop, crisps etc. There’s a fridge to pop your drinks in the main lounge and we dropped our cases in as it was only 11ish when we arrived. Room 7 is at the top of the stairs which was hot but there’s a large fan in the room and windows had been left open. Bedroom immaculate and again quite quirky with the tiger and zebra rugs 😁 breakfast can be ordered to the room which was even better. Would definitely return.

Really friendly B&B with well appointed clean room with en-suite facilities having separate WC & shower rooms.Room over looked the road but as it is a small quiet road next to the City walls there was no disturbing noise.Breakfasts are pre-ordered with good quality bacon/sausage sandwich, granola & pastries to chose from which can be delivered in a basket to your room or had downstairs in the lounge which also has a guest fridge & a honesty “tuck shop”.Nextdoor is the Minster Inn which is a friendly pub to relax in. Walk into the City via Bootham Bar Gate house is only 10 minutes either through the museum gardens or the road.10/minutes walk from the rail station. All in all an excellent stay in a B&B with character & easy responsive communication with the owners.

This text box could never be big enough to hold all the superlatives Minster Walk Guest House deserves. To say we found our stay faultless is no exaggeration.From the timely, friendly online communication to the helpful cheerful staff on site all contact was perfect. Then there is the guest house itself. Quirky, gorgeous, welcoming, warm and comfortable. It was a true home away from home. We did not want to leave; especially our wonderfully decorated room with its supreme bathroom and dream-inducing bed.Simply the best in every way!

Excellent, characterful B&B very close to the centre of York.Very unusual, a one-off and quirky but in a very good way!Access to York through St Mary's gardens made it very easy to gain access to the city centre and the river. Gain for trips out to North Yorkshire.Staff friendly and helpful and car parking laid on (and in York that is worth having!)Breakfasts served in a very different way (picnic hamper) made it fun and unique.Would highly recommend.
Reviewer: Jeremy D | Tue 9th Jul 2024 | 9 months ago
A very imaginitively presented and quirky place to stay with thoughtful touches such as the breakfast baskets - the hosts have obviously given everything a lot of consideration).However, the price was a bit too high for the size of the room and some of the level of amenities (there was only instant coffee and basic sliced bread), but it was Saturday night so would likely be better value another night

Car parking was all sorted and secure, also close by so easy to access. Gorgeous room with lovely decor, bathroom was great and shower was brilliant. One of our favorite features was the breakfast options, particularly the "breakfast in bed" option which made the stay extra special. We will definitely be going back soon!

I booked myself a solo trip away and for the price, was stunned at how lovely Minster Walk Guesthouse was. The owners (I think!) communicated really well prior to my stay, so there was no stress about entering/leaving the property. The downstairs area is so charming, cosy and full of character, I’ll definitely be coming back just to get to enjoy this some more! The room itself was gorgeous, with lovely views, a spotless bathroom and potentially the comfiest bed I’ve ever slept on!! Even the little touches such as the ridiculously wide selection of teas, coffees and hot chocolates in both the room and downstairs was super thoughtful and just went that extra mile. The breakfast options were amazing.Honestly, I could go on for ages but I’ll definitely be recommending this to friends and family:)

Instructions were sent to usvia email on how to find the property and access code as proprietors were not based at the site – reserved on street parking just down the road.Quite steep stairs to the bedrooms so if you aren’t too mobile you might want some help carrying your bags up the stairs.We stayed in room number 3. Lovely room and as previous guests have said, amazing comfy bed!Bathroom was adequate though very tight between the door and the shower wall so if you weren’t careful you would keep banging the wall when you went in the bathroom.Breakfast – unique idea, fill in your order forms before 7am in the morning and they willdeliver your ‘Breakfast Hamper’ to you either in the guest lounge or to your room if you have decided to have Breakfast in Bed.We opted to go down stairs and were welcomedand offered our breakfasts of bacon/sausage baps and pastries. There is even fresh yogurt with fruit and grains which was delicious. There are offerings of tea, coffee, cereal and toast if you wish to have that. All in all a lovely breakfast.There are also games and books in the guest lounge and complementary drinks and sweet treats.We would definitely recommend and stay again, position is great, only a few mins walk to York Minister. If you prefer a hotel with the proprietorson sitemaybe not a place for you but we will definitely be back as that was not a problem for us and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Stayed for two nights with a work colleague for a girly break. Minster House didn’t disappoint. Location is fabulous, a simple 5 minute trot (depending on how quick you trot it could be done in 2-3) to the Minster. The room was spotlessly clean (Room 7 on third floor was fantastic) and the breakfast hamper beautifully presented and tasted delicious. We had this delivered to the room which was a lovely touch. Everything about this place was gorgeous. Quirky, homely, interesting, comfortable, welcoming and the team were SUPER responsive when I contacted them. Nothing is too much trouble. I wouldn’t hesitate to return or recommend. Loved everything!!!! Thank you Minster Walk!!!
Reviewer: Julia D | Tue 19th Mar 2024 | 1 year ago
Great location for all amenities in York. Accommodation was clean, all staff extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast buns were very tasty, plus the options of cereals, toast, pastries and drinks. The road is perfectly quiet even with a pub next door ( who serve good beer and pizzas by the way!) A two minute walk through the minster gardens and you’re in the shopping area, five minutes from the famous Shambles and York Minster. My only niggle ( and it’s just my preference) was that the pillows were a bit hard, I do normally bring my own but we came by train. Talking of trains, the walk from the station was 5 minutes, this saved us a lot of money as York parking is expensive, if you can get aspace. Would definitely stay again and would recommend it. Prices compared to hotels were good especially if you book with them direct. Thank you.

From start to finish, this was a great experience. Booking was easy and email communication was very thorough. We knew exactly what to expect before arriving. Car parking was easy to add on and we had no problems parking. We had a very warm welcome and the lounge is lovely with some really nice and thoughtful touches. The room was a decent size, again with some very thoughtful touches. Room was very clean, with a hugecomfy bed. The breakfast baskets were lovely. Baps had plenty of sausage and bacon in them and we certainly didn't go hungry. Location is fabulous. Quick and easy to get to the centre, with a beautiful walk through some gardens. What a great couple of nights we had.

· Cosy and inviting . Lovely clean room and spacious bathroom. We loved the breakfast delivered to your room, great choices. Nice and straight forward check in and parking arranged before we came. Perfect location . It was my daughters birthday and even the special touch of a birthday banner was so kind. We really loved our stay in York and coming back to our accommodation at night was lovely , with a big comfortable bed. We would 100% stay again when we visit York .

Enjoyed a short break in York our first time spent at The Minster walk Guesthouse,and we were very happy with the friendly and accommodating staff who made us feel at home.Had a lovely room with a very comfy bed and plenty of tea and coffee in our room as well as in the lounge which felt like being in your own living room with games and books to entertain.Was impressed by the tasty breakfast which could be delivered to your room,which included delicious pastries,yougurts,and a chose of a sausage or bacon bap,you could have a big selection of cereals and toast in the lounge plenty of chose for all to enjoy 😀 .Our only negative was that there wasn't a larger space to hang clothes or towels maybe hooks on the bathroom door would help other than this we enjoyed our stay and would recommend to friends and family .

This was the first time we had stayed at Minster Walk Guest House and it was just perfect for what we wanted. The place is situated perfectly for discovering York. We parked our car in the local car park 3 minutes walk from the guest house and didn't use it again till we went home, everything is a short walk away from the Minster to the train Museum. Room was nice and clean, there`s a pub next door so not far to go for a drink. The staff at Minster Walk Guest House were fantastic and the breakfast was enough to fill anyone up for the day ahead. We will be going back defiantly.

There was mulled wine available with mince pies on arrival back from a busy cold day shopping. The breakfast hamper was delicious with warm baps and pastries along with juices. Toast & cereals also available. Lovely lace, we’ll be back. Thank you Lisa & team, merry Christmas 🎄 x

Stayed for one night whist in York for the Christmas market. Loved everything about this quirky,friendly little place which is just a short walk from the station and even closer to the Minster and town centre. Our cosy room was theatrically themed with a spacious bathroom. The festive drinks and mince pies in our room were a welcome surprise and the complimentary drinks and treats available all day in the lounge much appreciated. The breakfast hamper brought to our room had delicious bacon and sausage baps. Look forward to staying here again and have already recommended it to friends.
Reviewer: Marion O | Sat 10th Dec 2022 | 2 years ago
Booked a 3 night stay in early December in room 4 - minster view room. The room and bathroom were spotless with a glass of festive spirit and a mince pie awaiting us in the room.In the communal area downstairs there is a fridge for guests use and free mulled wine and cake. A lovely breakfast delivered to your room daily if you wish. Finally a quick mention about the king size bed - it was incredibly comfortable. All in all I would thoroughly recommend this guest house for a stay in York.

We've stayed in York many times, but Minster Walk has got to be the best by far! The themed rooms are amazing. We recently stayed in the theatre themed room. Every detail was perfect.

I had read all the great reviews before booking and the guest house did not disappoint. Cosy welcome into the lounge where there are hot drinks to help yourself to as well as games and books. Our room was right at the top and was beautifully clean and airy. Beds were comfy, tv worked great, shower had lots of hot water with lovely toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap and hand and body cream) breakfast the next morning delivers to our room was really good quality. The sausage and bacon cob was so big we couldn’t manage the other bits we had ordered. All the staff we encountered were friendly and welcoming.We would definitely staff again.Only little thing was the towels, I like a nice big bath sheet and a could barely get the larger towel wrapped around, that’s and individual thing though so if you like a really big towel maybe bring one as I will do next time.

A lovely stay we had and will be back sometime.
Reviewer: Sue| Sat 19th Nov 2022 | 2 years ago
We had Room 8 3/4 at the top of the house (you need to be able manage some steep stairs) and it was wonderfully quirky and comfortable. This room has double and single beds and a bathroom with a lovely shower and large bath. Good toiletries and soft towels. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. Breakfast is of a good quality (but with limited choice) and can be taken in your room (not suitable for us as there was nowhere to eat) or downstairs in the open-plan lounge and 'dining' area. We appreciated the add-lib drinks downstairs and the little sweet rolls. We also loved the great range of books and games on offer.This guesthouse is ideally situated,facing the Yorkshire Museum park walls, 7-8 minutes walk from the station side entrance, within the same amount of walking time to the city centre and with a large car public park to the rear.There were a couple of down-sides for us - these should not be read as criticisms but matters of mainly personal preference. We would prefer a fuller breakfast menu, served downstairs with choices made at the table; we would have liked a more permanent staff presence and we think there should be a guest loo on the ground floor.That being said, we enjoyed our stay in this lovely old house.

We had such a fantastic relaxing stay, everything was just perfect. Lying in bed, which was one of the most comfortable we have ever slept in, listening to the bells from York Minster and eating a delicious breakfast in bed, in such a unique bedroom made this a very special stay. Vegan options were well catered for so thank you. We had a gorgeous bathroom which was immaculately clean, and the lovely toiletries are a nice touch. Easy walking distance from the City Centre. We will definitely be back.
Reviewer: Ann H | Mon 24th Oct 2022 | 2 years ago
Minster Walk Guest House has the perfect location for the centre of York. It is a very old building with lots of maintained period features. Because of this the rooms are small but that’s fine because we are only there to sleep.You have access to the lounge area on the ground floor at all times. We found it nice and quiet and the beds were really comfortable. I would stay again.
Reviewer: Sarah | Mon 24th Oct 2022 | 2 years ago
Can't compliment the Minister Walk Guest House highly enough. A quirky high standard accomodation within the heart of York - only minutes walk from most attractions. Room was exceptional, with view of the Minster. We chose the tasty Breakfast Bap and Extras to be delivered to our room. Our hosts wereattentive and gave us a warm Yorkshire welcome.
Reviewer: Keith B | Sat 22nd Oct 2022 | 2 years ago
We loved everything about this charming and quirky guest house. Check in was nice and early and so easy. Our room was spotlessly clean and we loved the retro "British Rail" decor - very clever! Breakfast is served in a wicker hamper to your door so you can choose to have breakfast in your room or in the dining area. We loved this idea! Toast, cereal etc available in the dining /lounge area too.Complimentary tea/coffee and cakes available throughout the day if you need them (great for bridging the mid afternoon munchies 😉) Our bed was super comfy and warm and the generous sized toiletries in the ensuite smelled amazing, with a choice to purchase on departure.Ideal location with most, if not all, attractions located within walking distance. The staff were very friendly and helpful and had time for a bit of a chat and we laughed every day with them. It is apparent that the owners have put a lot of love and thought into their guest house and we would not want it to change. Well done, guys! Oh, and yes, we will definitely be back.
Reviewer: Julie-Mae| Fri 21st Oct 2022 | 2 years ago
Great place to stay and really conveniently located for most central York attractions. Room 1 resembles an old railway station with a comfortable bed, large shower room/toilet and ample beverages for a brew.The pre-order breakfasts are great and can be taken in your room or in the guest lounge with additional toast, cereals and drinks available.If it was dog friendly it would attract more guests…..just a thought!

Ideal location for a short break, walking distance of Minster, city centre, river, station and railway museum. Room well equipped and comfortable with excellent recently refurbished large shower room plus view of the west front of the Minster. Good, tasty breakfast which we had in communal dining/lounge area set up and delivered by Emma who was friendly and helpful.Downside was the noise from the pub next door, load voices and some swearing into the late evening. Also some confusion over pre arranged parking permit as system had changed since our booking which had not been communicated to us, quickly and helpfully sorted by the owner Ruth over the phone but cause a stressful arrival.

Every person who runs a guesthouse should be made to stay here to see how it's done. A welcoming homely space with personal touches throughout, modern fittings intersperse beautifully with the historic building, with a view across to the minster from the rooms at the front. Very comfortable bed, and the optional breakfast in bed (at no extra charge!) HAS to be experienced. Book this place now.

We stayed for 3 nights and had an excellent stay. The rooms were very comfortable, laid out well with everything you needed. The owner and staff were very friendly and most helpful and really made our stay. It is situated in a very quite street but close to the sights and night time facilities. Will definitely return next year

Myself and a few lads visited York for a little trip away, and I happened to find Minster Walk Guest House on booking.com. The location was fantastic for a start, the check in & check out was smooth and the room itself was brilliant! The room provided character, it was spacious and also really clean. I would highly recommend visiting and I would defiantly book again!

We had a great stay at Minster Walk Guest House, which is really conveniently located a couple of minutes walk from York Minster, and the bars and restaurants surrounding.The room was a good size (though we spent no time in it!) and breakfast delivered to our door was delightful! Thanks for a great stay!

My friend and I were enormously impressed by this guesthouse. It was very clean and comfortable. Thought had clearly gone into the details which made us feel cared for and quite at home. There was a sense of generous hospitality in the provision of tea, coffee and cake. Thought had gone into making it feeling very linked to its location (e.g. locally made chocolate bars) and the breakfast hamper was not only delicious but a great solution to the challenges of covid. We were really sorry to only stay one night and are already talking about a longer return visit! Thank you to all who made our stay so super.
Reviewer: Rebecca F | Sun 14th Aug 2022 | 2 years ago
Gorgeous quirky little find in the heart of York. You'd be hard pressed to find something that offers the same level of comfort and which goes that little bit further to make the stay one that stands out above the rest, from the honesty bar,book loan and sweetie station it really did impress us. Room 6 for our family of 4 was absolutely perfect and totally gorgeous and more lovely than we expected on booking. We will hopefully be back one day. Thanks!

This place is a little gem, beautiful hotel, service excellent. Lots of little quirky items including reading and games corner, sweets, breakfast hampers (which were delicious) and a mix of old world decoration and new contemporary. The bar did an awesome expresso martini and although we didn’t eat the pizza menus looked awesome, I was actually gutted we had booked somewhere else as the menus had more vegan options than the place we had booked. Highly recommend this place for couples, friends and families.
Reviewer: Denise V | Mon 25th Jul 2022 | 2 years ago
Excellent location , near city centre,river walks. Large car park at the bottom of the road, pub next door. On arrival instructions with room key waiting for you, unfortunately sign for rooms very small, room rather small but good view of minster and bed comfortable. Room could get rather hot but fan provided to assist. Breakfast very good, delivered to your room. Wouldstay again.
Reviewer: John W | Sun 24th Jul 2022 | 2 years ago
Room we had (#7) was lovely and quite comfortable, with nice bathroom amenities. Breakfast was included with our stay, which was quite convenient for us. Staff are very friendly and price was very reasonable. Just be warned of these two things, in case it matters to you:1. No lift - too old to have one, and we were on the 2nd (top) floor, so had to lug our luggage up several flights2. No Air Conditioning - might be an issue on warm days; we visited during a heatwave in July, though they did give us a fan to compensate
Reviewer: Angelo C | Mon 18th Jul 2022 | 2 years ago
Very good guest house, really well equipped and well located. The decor was fab and all the lovely little touches like sweeties much appreciated. Breakfast in bed is an option, but there is a small breakfast room as well.

Stayed here with my boyfriend for one night tocelebrate my 25th birthday. Check-in was so easy,we got a text with the passcode to the front doorand just picked up our keys when we arrived. Westayed in room 4 which was a superior minster viewroom and it was gorgeous. Huge bed, lovelytoiletries and selection of teas, coffee & hotchocolates. And they left some sweets as a littletreat for my birthday!We parked at a friends house nearby so not sureon the parking but such an easy location to walkinto town (about 8 minutes through the museumgardens or along the river).Check-out is 10 which was slightly earlier than wewould have liked but it was made manageable bythe delicious breakfast hamper brought to ourbedroom.Would 100% recommend staying here for a specialoccasion!
Reviewer: Josie W | Sun 17th Jul 2022 | 2 years ago
Can’t really criticise anything with this holiday. Everything ready for us,very clean, location so close to town itself, which is so unspoilt and compact, you can walk pretty well everywhere. The idea of breakfast being brought to your room seemed odd, but in fact works very well, you don’t have to get up and dressed before you eat. Finally all the staff were cheerful and helpful, special mention of Lisa who was so good dealing with a particular situation that we had before coming. All in all, we can thoroughly recommend Minster View Guest house to everyone.

We had a beautiful experience. The guest house was close to a park, as well as the city center. It was an easy walk from the train station. When we arrived check-in was a breeze and the room we had was so beautiful. We had two connecting rooms and a beautiful bath tub that had a view of the cathedral. The room also had a fun Harry Potter theme, which we loved! It was very tasteful. In the mornings, you could request breakfast be delivered to your room and we had delicious sausage baps and juice delivered. It started our days on a great note. The only thing we wish we could change, would be we wished we had more time!! It was such a wonderful place to stay and we will be back!
Reviewer: Megan W | Wed 29th Jun 2022 | 2 years ago
Minster Walk Guest House is perfectly located in walking distance from the centre of York. The rooms are beautifully decorated and has everything you could ever need for an overnight stay.

I stayed with my husband and college aged kids, one who loves Harry Potter. We were able to secure the 8 3/4 and 8 rooms. Very compact and full of fun furniture! But if your looking for a room to stretch out in these are not the ones. The Inn Keepers were very kind and helpful with storing our bags before and after check out. Breakfast delivered to our door was nice-simple. The yogurt option was amazing! Location was perfect. So close to everything-especially the park.

Reviewer: Jemma H | Mon 13th Jun 2022 | 2 years ago
This hotel is bijou and very charming. The location is literally a stone's throw from key places to see in York. The room was characterful, well equipped and yet very modern with great bedding and classy toiletries. Lovely breakfast served in a hamper to your room. If you want something a little special and bespoke rather than a generic hotel room then this is for you. Our double room was a little snug in size but this took nothing away from the enjoyment. I would go back again.
Reviewer: Martina D | Sun 12th Jun 2022 | 2 years ago
Clean,comfortable rooms but with the added magic of wizards, spells and secret doors. A treat to be able to have breakfast brought to you in your room but we liked to come and sit in the cozy lounge area. We really appreciated the plentiful supply of games, perfect to unwind and sit together as a family after a day of exploring York. This stay was for a special birthday so the welcome set up in the room really was lovely. All the little touches too did not go unnoticed, from the excellent choices of teas, coffees and hot chocolate to the sweet treats. Thank you to the helpful and friendly staff team.
Reviewer: Jenny L | Sat 11th Jun 2022 | 2 years ago
A lovely bnb situated very close to the museum and York minster. Eclectic furnishings. Lovely spacious family room, bright and quiet. Granola, compote and yoghurt sufficient. Our only quibble was the stairs are narrow and steep so it was difficult to bring down a suitcase. Otherwise had a great stay. A very pleasant lady booked our taxi to the airport. Would definitely recommend.

Reviewer: IAN D | Sun 5th Jun 2022 | 2 years ago
We enjoyed a lovely stay here whilst visiting York for the Jubilee Bank Hol. It’s a quirky place - very much a one off - and would highly recommend it. The location is excellent, being roughly a 5/10 min walk from the river/York city. There’s a lovely pub just a few yards away (Minster Inn) and just so much to see and do. We did a river cruise which was lovely and highly recommend afternoon tea at Betty’s - this was a must and one of our main reasons for visiting York. Minster Walk was extremely comfortable with everything you could possibly need. Rooms were well equipped and the bed was so comfy. Breakfast is delivered to your room which we really liked. It made a nice change and we’d definitely book to stay here again. Couldn’t fault it.

Would certainly stay here again in the future.
Reviewer: Claire S | Wed 18th May 2022 | 2 years ago
We stayed here for 1 night on a Saturday as a nice night away for my husbands birthday. From start to finish the communication, check in and check out were fantastic. We arrived early and our Room was ready so we could check straight in which was excellent as it meant we could freshen up and head out to explore. We were in Room 3, which was compact, but the bed was huge and so comfortable, the room had everything you would need for a night away including a hairdryer, toiletries, plenty of tea, coffee, milk and chocolate biscuits and there was a bag of sweets left on the bed also. The staff kindly gave my husband some chocolate also for his birthday. The only negative of this room was the toilet is so close to the sink, I am not very tall but my husband did struggle a little with this and the electric shower isn't the most powerful. Breakfast the next morning in the hamper delivered to your door was such a treat and you get so much! I was delighted that they could cater for my dairy intolerance and the granola with the dairy free yoghurt was lovely, the location and the quality of what you get for your money is brilliant and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend or stay here again.
Reviewer: Emma G | Wed 18th May 2022 | 2 years ago
Nice quality accommodation within a stones throw of the city centre on a quiet back street.We had three nights in room four at this friendly B&B. Clean, comfortable and a view of the Minster.Bed was top quality and we had a good nights sleep.The breakfast basket we were not a fan of. Nothing wrong with it at all but I would have preferred more choice and a dining room. Overall good value and the pub next door was excellent.

A charming little piece of heaven. Quirky, quiet and comfortable. I slept like a log (and that just doesnt happen in hotels). Woke up to a proper cup of tea; a powerful shower and a delicious fresh bacon and sausage bun delivered to my door. I had a very challenging all day meeting ahead of me with 14 people and - honesty - i put the success of that meeting down to the fact that i’d slept so well and been so well cared for. I feel the owners of this place really care that their guests feel looked after. The toffee crisp on the tea mug? Love it. Love it.

We were lucky we had beautiful weather so sat having a cuppa with the little sash window was lovely.Breakfast is a help yourself affair which you can choose to eat downstairs or in your room. You place your order for other items (pastries, juices, yoghurt and breakfast baps) A picnic basket is prepared for you and brought to your door.We chose to eat cereal Downstairs then took our picnic hamper up to our room to eat the rest there by the window listening to the piece and quiet.Would not hesitate to return to this little haven.We loved every second of our stay here

What a fabulous Guest House Minster Walk is, great location, it was a little walk just outside of the city centre, long stay car park close by,it was perfect if you wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle and stay in a quieter area of the city, its located just off the museum gardens. Our breakfast arrived at our bedroom door, after pre ordering, in a lovely basket, freshly cooked baps, granola a must try, absolutely delicious! it was like having breakfast in bed each morning, or if you preferred there is a sitting area downstairs. It is such a welcoming place with books and games if the weathers not great, lots of useful city information, very well supplied tuck shop too! The rooms very stylish, loved the quirky decor!!! My only criticism is that we stayed in room 6 with my two children, it only had one tiny wardrobe in the smaller part or the room that houses 2 single beds, the other end is a lovely 4 poster king size bed but there was no where to hang your coats or any clothes, i.e. dresses,or a suitcase rest so we lived out of the suit case on the floor, but, apart from that tiny flaw it was perfect, spotlessly clean. Definitely stay there again!Thanks for having us Lisa.

What a lovely wee building! The bathroom was impeccable with a claw foot bathtub which had views looking out to the Minster, and all the toiletries were supplied from a UK based business. The attention to detail in the decor was second to none and you can always spot a new little nook or detail while in the hotel. It was wonderfully eclectic and traditional with exposed beams while also being open, airy, and bright.We got a delightful breakfast hamper that was delivered in the morning in a gorgeous wee wicker basket, with freshly cooked breakfast buns, yoghurt granola, juice in the loveliest little glass bottles, and freshly baked pastries. The breakfast options are wonderful and cater to vegan and gluten free diets. Could not recommend this place more - thank you for such a lovely stay!

What a fabulous place!We thoroughly enjoyed our night here and it certainly lives up to the wonderful reviews of previous guests.Thank you so much for organising the bottle of my husband’s favourite wine for my his birthday and the card and the posh chocolates from yourselves was a really special touch and much appreciated!Our room was lovely and the breakfast was great!Good location, warm welcome , relaxing atmosphere - what more could anyone ask for??Highly recommended!

Wonderful interesting decor and friendly staff. I stayed for a solo trip in the standard single room for 2 nights. I found the room very comfortable and had all the amenities should someone need them. I appreciated the attention to the fact that I am vegan, therefore soy milk and vegan snacks were provided in the room instead. Breakfast baskets were a delightful treat in the mornings.The seating area downstairs by reception looks a great place to play games and have a cuppa/drink in the eve - if you travelled with others. Nevertheless I found it great for a simple sit down between touring the city!Everything was clean and tidy. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

Very satisfied with Minster Walk Guest House. Cute little lobby / guest area downstairs. Our room was unexpectedly Harry Potter themed, which was quite fun. Breakfast could have used some eggs but the yogurt was delicious and the fresh cooked sausage and bacon baps were very tasty.

We stayed here for 3 nights and the guest house is great.Minster Walk is quirky and decorated with dark walls,exposed beams and brickwork which enhances its old features.The location is great, 5 minutes walk into York and is very quiet at night. There is also a great pub next door servingtasty pizza, with vegan options too.The room we stayed in (the family room) was very clean and large with a comfortable four poster bed and 2 single beds in a separate area.There is a large tv and there was plenty ofdrinks and snacks to choose from.The new bathroom was great, although no bath.The breakfast was good with toast and cereal being served downstairs and a hamper delivered to your room with a sausage bap,yoghurt, fruit compote and granola pot and fruit juice (vegan options if specify beforehand).The staff are friendly and helpful.We fully recommend and would stay here again.

Although we arrived after the staff had left the query re parking was immediately answered by phone and all instructions took us smoothly to our comfy room which had so many cute decorations- I looked longily at the leather cases under the table!It was so quiet overnight despite being in the heart of the city it was slightly eerie!Breakfast in the morning was cutely served in a basket, was tasty and served with a friendly face.Our stay was to visit Roots just down the road, but MW definitely increased our city visit.
Reviewer: Karen T | Sat 12th Mar 2022 | 3 years ago
Had a lovely overnight stay at Minister Walk Guest House.Bed was queen size, lovely and comfortable and bedding was divine.Room faced into street with a view of the Minster, but it wasn’t noisy. Slept with window open.Breakfast was quirky in that you got a hamper of breakfast food - lots of choice, and you could have this downstairs or in your bedroom.The chance to buy some snacks, or have a cake bar anytime during your stay is a nice idea when you are feeling a bit peckish.Would definitely stay here again.

We have just returned from 2 nights at Minster Walk and were very pleased that we chose to stay here. Booking was very straightforward and communication from the hotel was excellent, with all the information we needed to get there and what to expect when we arrived. There were small touches that made all the difference, the small lounge area is well equipped with free tea and coffee and cakes which you can access at any time. The room we had was on the top floor, and although not large, had everything to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable, and had a fine view of York Minster. I would definitely stay here again.

What a wonderful stay at Minster Walk guest house. A real gem. We were in room 7 right at the top. A lovely large, clean room with fabulous en-suite. The bed was so comfortable and the bedding/pillows superb. Breakfast was a real treat, delivered to your room, great choices. Sherry and mince pies in our room to greet us, thank you it was very welcomed on such a cold day. The whole place is fabulous, we wish we had booked for more than one night. The lounge area with mulled wine, tea, coffee, mince pies and little chocolate cakes was a lovely thought. Even the fresh milk choices had oat milk, our favourite. Thank you for a wonderful stay. The staff members were all really friendly and we will will definitely be back. Wishing you all a great Christmas and a bright and Happy New Year.

Loved our stay at Minster Walk a fab quirky B&B we stayed in the family room at the top. Everywhere was clean and tidy staff were very welcoming and couldn’t do enough for you breakfast came in a basket can be enjoyed in your room or could have it downstairs. It’s all the little extra touches that golong way and have been thought about eg unlimited tea , coffee etc in room or downstairs , mince pies and biscuits after a long day in your mulled wine which was set on a timer so always warm for you if you feel a bit hungry there was a tuck shop with water, cans,chocolate , crisps all you do is put £1 per item in the honesty box provided great idea . In the room we where welcomed with mince pie and glass of Sherry as well as unlimited tea,coffee etc biscuits left everyday . Lovely products in bathroom so you don’t need to take any shower,shampoo etc.Minster Walk have thought of everything to make your stay enjoyable will definitely be booking again and recommending to everyone 2 min walk into York but still in a quiet part off city.So glad we found this little gem
Reviewer: Kim B | Tue 30th Nov 2021 | 3 years ago
Lovely room with a view of the minster. Complimentary sweet mince pie and sherry was a nice touch. No fried breakfast on a morning but the sausage and bacon sandwich delivered to the room in a nice picnic basket was very nice. Nice comfortable cosy room. On the bad side Bathroom window needs a blind and one of the bedside lamps was coming apart also internet kept dropping out so tv kept freezing.I Think being a little cheeper would have been better.
Reviewer: John S | Mon 29th Nov 2021 | 3 years ago
Location was ideal for a shopping trip, and the Guest House was an absolute delight.The little touches matter here and there were plenty of them, little glass of sherry and mince pie to welcome us was just the start.Lovely room and a good breakfast was brought to us in a hamper, you could eat this downstairs and help yourself to cereal and toast but we had enough in our hamper.The staff without exception were helpful and friendly and added to our enjoyment of this short break in the lovely city of York.Thank you.

Situated close to the city centre, guest house lovely and homely and rooms very clean and love the nice touch with the sherry and mince pies. rooms warm and beds to die for, thoroughly enjoyed. Only one comment is when advertising rooms please stipulate which level they are on, we were in a beautiful room 7 up two flights of stairs, and for two disabled people with luggage that was a chore, we had to plan our evening so we didn't do the stairs much
Reviewer: Jayne C | Thu 25th Nov 2021 | 3 years ago

Reviewer: Lisette B | Mon 22nd Nov 2021 | 3 years ago
We really enjoyed our 3-nights stay at the Minster Walk Guest House; especially waking up to a view of the majestic Minster and our pre-ordered breakfast basket being delivered personally to our room each morning. Very friendly welcome from our lovely hosts and we felt at home from the start. Our superior room was homely, comfortable and spotless with a super king size bed and a table and chairs by the window where we could enjoy our breakfast. The shower room was very new and modern, but with the bright ceiling lighting at night we felt that a suitable blind or curtain of some sort on the lower part of the window at least would have afforded us more privacy from the road below.There was a generous supply of tea, coffee, hot chocolate, milk and cakes/biscuits in our room, these being topped up regularly. It would be nice if the bedside lamps in our room were a tad brighter as the (un-dimmable) ceiling lights were a bit too bright, and the bedside lamps a bit too dim to find a happy medium - just minor things as we do love the place and will be back again as soon as we can - unless you, dear reader, beat us to it after reading this review!

Not a full English cooked breakfast but a very enjoyable well packed breakfast bun or continental etc. If your looking for a really great location with lovely room and bath etc look no further than Minsters walk very pleased with our choice. Parking was also great as Minster has some spots just around the corner for £10 per day we never used the car once parked up so felt this was a very handy option and well worth the extra. You can pull up outside both to unload and again to load up. 👌👏😊

Last minute decision to visit York didn't give us as much time as we usually take to research and plan a trip but our instant decision on Minister Walk Guest House was a blessing! Perfect location - we saw the whole city and didn't need car for two days! Parking at public car park 3 minute walk away (We didn't pre book Guest House on road parking permit £10 a day.)Delightfully appointed railway themed room was perfect. Would consider booking privately next time(to be able to choose another themed room). Well thought out, mingle free breakfast options are delicious! Christmas market is being set up at present and looks wonderful! York is a beautiful city - highly recommend Minister Walk Guest House for this city break!

We arrived at the guesthouse just after lunch just to drop off bags and park but out room was already ready for check in …. Greeted by Lisa who was ever so helpful we was shown to our room ( room 2 ) on the ground floor. It was a cute theatre teamed room with old fold down theatre seats, a huge comfy bed , hanging space for clothes and lovely tea & coffee making facilities. Lovely selection of tea inc fruit green roibush and earl grey - coffee - decaf & hot chocolate with chocolate bars !!Lovely welcome pack with pre order forms for the breakfast hamper that will be delivered to your room or you can have it in the lounge area of the guesthouse with more toast and cereal option. The breakfast baps are either sausage or bacon or both and are delicious 🤤!!! Very tasty sausage and you can have pastries, granola yoghurt and juices !!!! All included in the price .The bathroom of the room is something else …. Huge with walk in shower and roll top bath and free complementary shampoo and shower gel …. Even body lotion .The bed was amazing and so was the stay !!! Will definitely book again as it’s the ideal location to walk into the town centre…. Great little find with a great teamThank you 😊

Our first time here and we loved it. It’s very quirky and different with bags of personality. Even more so at the moment with all the hallowe’en decorations. We had room 5 which is great as it has a separate toilet room to shower room which meant no steamed up mirrors when applying make up. The bed was really comfy too. The breakfast delivered in a basket was such a nice way to tackle distancing issues. Lovely people who gave us a warm welcome and departure. Highly recommended.

With a car park literally down the road.Breakfast was yummy and served to our room!All in all, me and my family had a great time at the Minster Walk, we would definitely return and recommend to family and friends!Nicola xx

Location, location location - BRILLIANT! HUGE BED! (Rm 4). Great shower, ample wardrobe space and drawers. Lounge and guest space was just great.Breakfast was lovely and so nice to have it delivered to your door, no rush to get dressed. We enjoyed our granola, yoghurt and bacon bap in our room (small table x 2 chairs). There is nothing not to recommend about the Minster Walk. But we think the bathroom window could do with a blind? couldn't help think our outline could be seen from the street? A big thank you to Lisa, Emma and Ruth. Sorry about the key lol lol lol. T xxxx

We stayed here for 3 nights from 27/09/21.Before booking i contacted the Guesthouse. directly as I had specific requirements. Everyone i dealt with were extremely helpful and accomodating. Thecommunication was spot on. We arrived after the staff had finished for the day, but they left a lovely welcome letter so we knew exactly what to do.The lounge was cosy and quirky and the ground floor bedroom was lovely. The bathroom with the roll too bath was fantastic. And I don't think I've ever slept in a comfier bed. So much so that we are considering buying a similar mattress !!! The breakfast delivery to our room was great, and meant we could take our time getting ready to go out exploring. The sausages come highly recommended. The whole place was very clean and the tea/coffee/cake area was a nice touch.We thoroughly enjoyed our first visit to Minster Walk Guesthouse, and whenever we visit York again, we absolutely will book here.
Reviewer: Joanne B | Sun 3rd Oct 2021 | 3 years ago
We stayed for one night mid week.It’s a small guesthouse and very clean and tidy.Lot of extra special touches ie games, books etc in the reception area and a nice seating area to relax before you go back to your room.Breakfast was ordered the night before and hand delivered to your room in the morning in a lovelyHamper.Parking is just down the next street and just £10 so we’ll worth it.There is a main car park adjacent and that cost is £4.80 for a couple of hours after we had checked out.Close to everything really.We often go to York and will definitely book here again.

We stayed in a Superior double room, which was lovely if a bit small. It had a lovely, big, comfortable bed with lovely comfortable bedding. The bathroom was small but with a large walk in shower and was very clean and modern. Staff were very helpful and friendly. There’s a communal fridge in the reception area for guests which was very useful for our overnight stay. We also loved the fact that we could order a breakfast to be delivered to our door in a picnic basket so you don’t have to get dressed and go downstairs to eat! We would definitely stay here again. The only thing that let our visit down was the building work in progress at the back of the guest house which meant it was noisy from 7.30am.

Room was decorated in a railway theme and was lovely and clean, bed was verycomfortable and bathroom modern. Only negative thing we found was that some blinds would of been nice to add to some privacy as on the ground floor, but not a big issue. Would highly recommend this hotel.
Reviewer: Lynsey S | Fri 17th Sep 2021 | 3 years ago
Our stay at this guesthouse was everything we expected and more. From the moment we crossed the threshold until we collected our belongings the next afternoon, we felt welcomed, relaxed and well looked after. Our room was 8 3/4 with a lovely view of the Minster. It was clean, cosy and beautifully presented in a quirky, original style. The bath was luxurious and even though we only stayed one night, my daughter and I made sure to have two very bubbly baths during our stay! The beds were incredibly comfortable and we slept soundly. The real star of the show was the breakfast, which was served to our door in a wicker basket- delicious continental style breakfast with the option of brioche bun sausage or bacon rolls. The warm, fresh pastries were a delight. High quality orange juice was a real bonus.Perfectly situated for the York Minster, the York Art Gallery and the city centre, we found the guesthouse to be convenient and easy to locate. We were visiting York in order to see the city and the university for my daughter, and neither disappointed. The hospitality and welcome at this guesthouse truly made us feel secure and safe in a city that was foreign to us southerners! If my daughter chooses to go to York uni next year, my family will definitely endeavour to stay here again!
Reviewer: Sarah-Anne S | Fri 17th Sep 2021 | 3 years ago
We stayed for our 40th Wedding anniversary and know York well.It was like visiting a wonderfully friendly family home, that just happens to have more bedrooms than most! The downstairs sitting room is so warm and welcoming at any time of day, with leather sofas and shelves full of games. The curios decorating every corner (almost) collected by Ruth are amazing!We stayed in room 4 (super king-sized bed) which had a view of a good part of the minster from our room and the sun shone in on to the small breakfast table situated in the window. Tea and coffee supplies were always kept topped up. The bed and pillows were obviously very high quality (expensive), being soooooo comfortable! We slept very well. A cooked Breakfast and danish pastries was served in a picknick basket left outside the room or you could take it downstairs and make your own toast and also enjoy the cerials. I could go on (and on) but you really do need to go and find out for yourself how great Minster Walk is. Oh I nearly forgot (how could I)?! The staff are wonderful - very knowledgeable about the area and so friendly and helpful - they are a credit to the Guest House! We will certainly stay again!!!
Reviewer: Tim S | Thu 16th Sep 2021 | 3 years ago
We stayed at Minster walk for the evening.We were really happy with the check in process as we were able to arrive whenever we wanted. A courtesy call was made to us to let us know they were on hand if we needed anything during our stay.I was initially a tad apprehensive about breakfast as it was a hamper delivered to the room however it was absolutely perfect and we would opt for this again if we could.The room was spacious and clean with all the amenities you'd need for an overnight stay.The staff were friendly and helpful and we would 100% recommend it as a lovely place to stay.

Visited last minute over bank holiday as our honeymoon has yet again been cancelled.Arrived at the guest house around 11am, was greeted by staff whom gave us a parking permit and told us where to park. Was told our room would be available much earlier than thought so after parking our car we took advantage of the free refreshments in the lounge before heading out into York for the day.On return our bags had been put in our room.Room was absolutely immaculate, comfy bed & everything you would need. We stayed in the Harry Potter themed room which my hubby absolutely loved.Very quiet during the night / morning. Breakfast brought to our room in a hamper. Again everything you could ask for including a hot sandwich, fresh pastries, juice, fresh milk etc. They had thought of everything.Would highly recommendas the location into town for shopping & a meal etc is fantastic. Will definitely be staying again but will bring our daughter next time who would love it all the same ??????Thank you so much again for making our mini moon a lovely experience

We only stayed one night. I wish it could have been longer.We arrived early and was met by Dean such a friendly guy. We left our luggage with Dean and when we got back our toom was ready and luggage in our room.The rooms are all themed differently. Ours reminded me of an old train carriage. It was so warm and comfortable.You are welcomed to help yourself to tea, coffee and cakes in the lounge 24hrs and a choice of breakfast delivered to your door or eat in the lounge.Luxurious toiletries - hand wash, body lotion, bodywash and shampoo are in the room along with hairdryer and there is an iron on the second floor. Tea/coffee making facilities along with kit kats, toffee Crisps instead of usual packed biscuits in the rooms if you don't want yo drink in the lounge area. This hotel is so quirky we loved it.Its the little extras that make it.You can prebook permit parking but if missed out there is a car park at the bottom of the street.We stayed in room one at the back on the ground floor, no view if the minster but that didn't bother us and it was so quiet. Can't wait to come back and try one of the other rooms.

Reviewer: Nicola M | Fri 27th Aug 2021 | 3 years ago
We very much enjoyed our stay at the guesthouse. We stayed for two nights in room 8 which had a medieval/Harry Potter kind of vibe. The room is up two flights of stairs (although not that many steps) and was of a good size. The paintwork in the room however was a little bit tatty as when we arrived we found a giant scrape along the wall where someone had obviously moved the bed or a suitcase or something but that’s easily rectified.Breakfast was ordered each day and bought to the room between 8-8:30am and was lovely. There was complementary tea/coffee and a few biscuits in the guest lounge and a tuck shop with an honesty box with chocolate, cans of drink etc for £1.The only downside was that the guesthouse isn’t manned in the evenings/serve food/have a bar, meaning that there wasn’t a huge amount of atmosphere and we ended up sitting in the guest lounge playing board games on our own most nights once we got back in from our days & meals out.Overall a very lovely stay and would recommend!

We’ve stayed at a lot of different lovely hotels in York but this is a new favourite. The facilities are excellent, including a well-stocked honesty tuck shop and vintage china with tea and coffee supplies in the traditional downstairs area. The hands off approach is what we enjoyed best, everything we needed and access when we wanted it. We had a high quality breakfast delivered to the door in a whicker basket each morning and enjoyed it at the window table overlooking the Minster and city walls. We saw staff in the mornings who were friendly and helpful. Little touches like umbrellas to borrow and a collection of books and games in the communal area make this a unique and delightful place to stay. We’ve already booked to stay again.

We enjoyed our stay at Minster Walk Guest House very much. The interesting decor and personal touches made it a memorable stay. Our room was characterful with a luxurious bathroom including roll top bath and large walk in shower.We loved getting our breakfast brought to the door in a wicker basket. Perfect quiet position for meeting friends in York and having a wander.

OMG this guest house is fabulous.From making sure we got the last parking permit (by ringing us in advance to ask us if we wanted) to the superb basket delivered to your room for breakfast to the actual building itself and the location, this place is brilliant.Definitely would stay here again if coming to York.

We have recently returned home from our fantastic stay in beautiful York.Our base couldn’t have been better.From the moment we arrived we felt at home.Parking was easy and just around the corner with our own parking permit that Ruth gave us on arrival.Our room was ready and was just lovely. Beautifully decorated and extremely clean.We stayed with our 18 year old daughter and our 16 year old son and they loved it, especially the breakfast!Lots of Tea, Coffee and Hot chocolate in the rooms, a fridge in reception and a small tuck shop there too!In the bathroom ( which was super clean) there were large bottles of shower gel and conditioner and shampoo and body lotions, there was a selection of them downstairs If you wanted to take any back home with you which is fantastic.Only a short walk of 10 minutes into the mains streets of this glorious city of York, we loved it and will be staying at this guest house nearer Christmas to sample the Christmas markets.We highly recommend this place to stay.

The Minster Walk Guest House is a lovely, quirky place to stay - full of character and perfectly situated to explore the city. Although small, our room was clean and cosy, and the Covid-safe breakfast was great.

A lovely little guest house only a 10 minute stroll along the riverbank into York centre, full of character and spotlessly clean! My husband and I stayed for one night to celebrate our wedding anniversary and really did feel that we had stayed somewhere special.The room was beautifully decorated, the bed was huge and very comfy and the en suite was perfect! We had a view of the Minster from our window which was lovely. A lovely touch was the fresh breakfast which arrived at our door in a basket. Parking just down the road is a bonus also.I would definitely recommend this as a place to stay if you are looking for somewhere special and close to the centre of York!
Reviewer: Jo T | Fri 30th Jul 2021 | 3 years ago
Can honestly say one of the nicest guest houses we have stayed in from the staff to location and cleanliness. The breakfast was also a lovely touch being brought to the room in a beautiful hamper. The location is perfect also. Can’t wait to stay again. Stacey Bartholomew
Reviewer: Stacey H | Fri 30th Jul 2021 | 3 years ago
Great location 10min Riverside walk to lendal Bridge or 5min to minster. Quaint small guesthouse busy narrow road outside main door. However not a major inconvenience. Our room was adequate large comfortable bed and all amenities though a little tight for room. Lovely view of the minster. Very nice breakfast served hamper style in room. Clean and comfortable with attentive cheery staff. Enjoyable 3 night stay at a decent price.
Reviewer: Kenneth B | Thu 29th Jul 2021 | 3 years ago
We stayed for one night in room 5 - a Minster view room. The room was smaller than I was expecting but had everything we needed for a one night stay. The toilet and shower room looked brand new which was nice. We were celebrating a birthday during our stay and we were kindly left a birthday card and box of chocolates as a surprise gift. If I had any issue with our stay it would be about the time allocation for breakfast - between 8-8.30am. This is quite early if you have had a late night out! We would have much preferred a 9-9.30am option instead. Overall though, a lovely stay in a great location for exploring York.
Reviewer: Gayle W | Tue 27th Jul 2021 | 3 years ago
The welcome you receive is warm and personal, the room was beautiful, four poster beds galore.Excellent shower room with great water pressure all presented stylishly and with those little touches (Minister Books) which make it so much more special.The breakfast basket was lovely with a nice choice, so nice not to get dressed to go to breakfast!The possibility to leave luggage was really appreciated as was the lounge area which was a great place to get together.10 minutes walk from the train station and less than five minutes from the city walls, I'd call this the ideal location.We will definitely be back - thank you for a lovely stay.
Reviewer: Kate S | Tue 27th Jul 2021 | 3 years ago
We received a phone call while travelling to say reception was closing but all our instructions and information were waiting for us, as-well as a selection of cakes and tea/coffee to help our selves. Situated perfectly next to the museum gardens and easy parking! This little gem of a guesthouse was gorgeous, from the entrance, the guest communal areas to the rooms and breakfast! Lovely big comfortable bed in a delightful decorated room! Little touches of biscuits and full big bottles of shampoo, shower gel. We ordered breakfast the night before, and it was delivered to our room. Very good choice of items, sausage baguette, yogurt granola, Danish pastries, tea, coffee and orange juice. Presented perfectly in a wicker picnic basket. Key code for entrance door to come and go as you please. Easy check out! We’ve stayed in York countless times and I can honestly say that if they’re not fully booked we’d stay here all over again! Thank you ????

We will definitely stay here again and I would highly recommend.

A very pleasant stay! B&B very well located just 5 minutes walk from the Minster, room clean and bed comfortable, breakfast served in-room and delicious, staff very welcoming and receptive (kindly changing the duvet after first night too warm), and sitting area downstairs with games a nice little bonus. Only possible downside was that the room was quite small, but that's probably inevitable given the location. Many thanks!

We arrived on Monday for a 2 night stay. 2 adults and 3 teenagers. We had the beautiful suite at the top of the guest house - room 8 & 8 3/4.The rooms are beautiful, the whole guest house is stunning and you are looked after very well. This business is run with a very personal touch which you will feel from the moment you book, you arrive until you leave.The breakfast hamper delivered to your room was perfect. The sausage baguette was delicious, as was the mini pastries!We will 100% be back! 5-10 minute, easy walk from the train station. 2 minute walk and you are within the city walls and the heart of all activity.Thank you for a wonderful visit and hopefully it won’t be too long before we can visit again ??

This was our first time staying at the Minster Walk Guesthouse but I’m sure it won’t be our last. We couldn’t really fault anything about our stay. We were in Room 1 which was quirky and decorated well.There was no noise from other guests. The bed was huge and really comfy. There was a fan available in the room which was a huge bonus as it was a really humid evening. Plenty of options for hot drinks in the room as well as hot drinks and cakes being available in the snug area. Breakfast was delicious too! It’s perfect if your travelling by train is it is only a 10 min walk from the station and there is a car nearby if arriving by car!

My friend and I have just had a three night stay at Minster Walk guest house.The walk up two flights of twisting stairs was worth the effort. We had a huge family room,with a large ensuite shower. The toiletries provided were of a high quality.The breakfast was brought to our room in a basket each day. The menu was limited but everything we had was delicious. Im sure when the restrictions lift there will be more choice.The staff were very helpful and we were pleasantly suprised to have our room serviced whilst we were there.We will certainly stay again, it's in the most convenient position for the railway station the centre of York etc.all within walking distance.We have been meeting in York for many years and this is certainly one of the best.

All the staff were so friendly and welcoming. The room was very clean , great bed and lovely en suite.

Fantastic guest house. Worth every penny! This is our second stay and it never fails. Great location, extremely clean and stylish decor. Beautiful rooms and very comfy beds. The lounge area is great for relaxing and full of books, games, refreshments. We had a great view of the minster from our room and it’s lovely to hear the bells in the morning. Breakfast never fails and this time we had it delivered to our room to adhere to COVID restrictions and this was a great little treat, breakfast in bed. Lisa was extremely welcoming and friendly too. Can’t wait to come back again.

We spent four nights at the Minster Walk guest house. We were made to feel very welcome. Our room (room 7) was on the top floor with views across the rooftops of York. The room and the large bed were very comfortable. Due to Covid 19 restrictions breakfast was delivered each morning to our room and was very good. We will definitely go back here when next in York.
Reviewer: Pauline W | Sun 13th Jun 2021 | 3 years ago
I booked a spontaneous night at Minster Walk for May half term with my daughter as she was desperate to stay in a hotel for the first time, and it turned out to be the perfect choice. It was my first time travelling alone with her and we were so pleased we chose Minster Walk.It was really central (within 10 minutes walk of everything we wanted to see and do) had everything we needed and the room was immaculate, cosy and full of character.We loved receiving our (delicious and vegan-friendly) breakfast in a basket. When I ordered the breakfast, the lady checking us in noticed I'd asked for the vegan option and offered to put some little pots of soya milk in our room for hot drinks, which has never happened to me in a hotel before - an unexpected and thoughtful touch! In the evening, we had a pizza in the pub next door which was so handy.Other highlights included the comfy bed, fan and gorgeous, cruelty-free and vegan toiletries!A lovely stay at a beautiful guest house I'd highly recommend.

Wow, where do you start to describe something so amazing?The owners and employees are all so friendly and lovely,the position of the guest house is perfect being right next to the Museum Gardens and only a couple of minutes walk to the river and probably 5-10 mins from York Minster.The rooms are really beautifully decorated with super comfy beds and nice in room facilities. Our roomhad a lovely outlook over the old roman wall with the towers of York Minster rising in the distance behind it.Attention to detail can be found everywhere and there are some lovely quirky decor touches all around which just work so well.Lovely communal / meeting area downstairs and currently (due to Covid i think) breakfast delivered to your room in a lovely wicker basket.Would give this Guest House a six star rating if we could.Definitely recommended.

We stayed at the Minster Walk for 2 nights as part of our wedding anniversary celebrations. Everything was superb, from our room being available ahead of time, to the room service breakfasts in a wicker basket, to looking after our bags on the last day whilst we wandered around the city before our train home. Nothing was too much trouble. The room was comfortable and quiet, and having our own front door key gave us freedom to come and go as we want. The hosts were fully covid compliant, making us feel reassured. All in all, a great stay and we won't hesitate to book here again when we come back.
Reviewer: Victoria N | Tue 8th Jun 2021 | 3 years ago
If you're looking for somewhere central to stay in York this is the place. We usually opt for hotels over guest houses but this is something special, friendly staff, lovely rooms, good breakfast.

Reviewer: Katie M | Mon 7th Jun 2021 | 3 years ago
We both had a fantastic stay at Minster Walk. The staff were helpful and friendly. The building was clean and very well presented. Our room was nicely decorated (complete with quirky touches such as the Harry Potter themed cupboard), compact and had everything we needed in it. There was a quality, clean kettle with good range of tea, coffee and hot chocolate. Breakfast was a hamper delivered to the room at 8am, containing a breakfast pre-ordered the day before. We both had the sausage sandwich with sauces, warm pastries and fruit juice. The ingredients were local, very fresh and very tasty. We would certainly return: thank you to the staff and owners.

We loved every minute of our stay at the Guest House. The room was immaculate and beautifully designed, equipped with all of the perfect amenities and a comfortable bed. The additional touches of a birthday card and chocolate truffles was a really thoughtful sentiment. One suggestion that could be considered would be to allow guests to choose a breakfast time on the menu handout. But overall this place is hard to fault! We will definitely be recommending our family and friends consider booking when visiting York.

From the booking to the checking out I really can't fault my experience with the property and the team.I had Room No 8 on the top floor and it was very nicely decorated, very clean and was idea for me as a single occupant. Windows that opened to allow fresh air in. looking over the tops of the surrounding buildings. Room was warm enough with the heating off for me but it was nice to be in control of the heating if i had wanted to have it on or increase the temp. couldn't fault the cleanliness of the whole place from what i saw. Bed was really comfortable with good pillows. good quality toiletries that i actually purchased some to come home. Breakfast delivered to your room was great means a very relaxed start to my day . I know this isn't for everyone but you can take it down to the dinning room think delivery is just while we have covid they can confirm. maybe limited selection for some whole like a full cooked breakfast but you know that when booking, it was great for me . Complete the form with what your after and then its delivered.Location is also great. easy walk from the station with bags. easy walk into the the York Minster and to be inside the walls of York. couple of nice bars a couple of mins away.Sainsberys round the corner if you want items for your room.They do have an honesty box for snacks and cans of juice in the main reception area along with the cakes and tea making facility (also available in your room). I really can't fault the team that look after you but also leave you to enjoy your stay.Even a lovely call to tell me i had left something in my room which they really didn't need to do and we sorted out a pick up of the item which is just a little example of the detail that you get with a smaller independent property. I will definitely be staying again next time i'm in York. Thank you.

We really enjoyed our stay at Minster Walk Guesthouse. We enjoyed the breakfast basket and the position was perfect. We stayed in 2 rooms, the first being almost double the price of the second. This did baffle us somewhat as the second room was more spacious with a better bathroom. We didn’t feel the glimpse of the Minster justified the price hike.

A five minute walk into the old town of York, with you own car park. Having spent the day shopping we chilled in our wonderfully charming, comfortable and quiet room, before heading back into town for diner. There was port and mulled wine waiting on our return (seasonal I suppose). The next morning our breakfast hamper was brought to the door with what we ordered, including GF option. Minster Walk will be our first of call when visiting York again.

We were visiting York as a trip away for my birthday. This was the first time we’ve stayed in a guesthouse and I have to say it was brilliant. Staff were friendly, access was easy, the lounge area was quiet and comfortable and we had a lovely evening playing scrabble. The room itself was perfect, had everything we needed and the bed was possibly the comfiest I’ve ever slept in. The position of the guesthouse in the city is ideal, and we will definitely be back.

The hotel was in a fabulous location , the city walls were across the toad and from our window we could see York Minster!We were met by Ruth who explained about the parking ( which was round the corner) before showing us to our room Ruth showed us where we could help ourselves to biscuits and cakes and extrateas and coffees if we needed them! We stayed in room 4 , a very nice room at the front of the hotel .The bathroom was lovely with high quality toiletries that we could use , and also purchase if we wanted to!The breakfast hamper the next day delivered to our room was a very nice touch with pre-ordered Yorkshire sausage baguettes , orange juice , tea coffee and milk, also included very nice crockery!Hotel was fab and we would stay there again

Small, which we like, very clean and very relaxed. Everything you need for a short stay.

There is plenty to look at when you walk into The Minster Walk .Very quirky.Our room was 4 ,very clean very welcoming. The bathroom was newly decorated, Fantastic shower, Ruth could not apologise enough for only providing a continental breakfast due to Covid. It was adequate. It was my Wife 65th birthday, Ruth put a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge for us. A lovely touch. Ruth is the sort of person that will go the extra mile for her guests. Will def, stop again

We had a lovely stay at Minster Walk, they'd just re-opened following lockdown and had everything in hand. Our room had been recently refurbished and the bathroom in particular was impressive. We also enjoyed the cosy lounge area with tasty cake and a good selection of breakfast items. We would recommend Minster Walk to anyone visiting York for a few days.

Myself,sister and friend have stayed at Minsterwalk for several years. We always enjoy our stay but found this year the personal touch was lacking. We all also thought the dining/seating area this year a bit mixed up.We only saw one person both mornings at breakfast time.Both members of staff were helpful but it was a bit impersonal.However will be booking for next year.The room(No 4) was comfortable and clean,but could we suggest drinks and food if left as compliments could be covered up.

Booked a night away for my parents who were visiting from New Zealand and my partner and I couldn’t have booked a better place. The rooms were so clean, cozy and warm and we were a 2 min walk from the centre of York! The only side was being woken up before 7am with kegs being delivered to the pub next door.Would definitely stay again!
Reviewer: Taryne C | Thu 26th Dec 2019 | 5 years ago
Travelling with a teenage is tough - you don't want to have to book two rooms, but the extra bed in most hotel rooms is awful. Minster Walk provided a perfect situation: a small apartment with real beds in each room. The location was ideal and everything was as promised.

Having stayed at the Minster Walk Guest House before, we knew that we would enjoy our stay. Plenty of hot mulled wine was available in the lounge & a welcome drink & minced pie awaited us in our room. A lovely view of a frosty York Minster & the park opposite the road could be seen from our room.We would definitely recommend staying here.
Reviewer: Rob T | Mon 16th Dec 2019 | 5 years ago
The hotel was immaculately clean. There was mulled wine in the lobby on arrival, mince pies and sherry in the room. You just don’t get these lovely personal touches is big chain hotels. The bed was really comfortable. The room was on the small side but perfectly adequate for a short stay and we had the added bonus of a view of the Minster. We would definitely stay here again. We thought when booking this that the parking would be covered for our entire stay but when you check out at 10am you then have to move your car to the pay and display car park which cost an extra £12 but this is not the hotels fault as they need the spaces for arriving guests, just something we hadn’t considered. Location was perfect, just a 10 minute walk in to the centre. Thank you for a lovely stay.

I stayed in Room 5 with my mum and daughter during our visit to the Christmas markets for my mum’s 70th birthday. Even before arrival I emailed and spoke to Ruth on the phone and she was very friendly and helpful. The location just a short walk from the Minster, the Petergate and beautiful gardens was perfect. The room was beautiful with very comfortable beds and a stunning newly decorated bathroom. In the lounge downstairs there was mulled wine and delicious Christmas Cake that you just helped yourself too. The room had a tray full of teas, coffees and hot chocolates but on top of that as part of our deal we got mince pies, Sherry and a bottle of Prosecco. We felt very spoiled and pampered! There were lovely toiletries in the bathroom to use and the shower was great. We put our breakfast order forms in the box in the lounge the night before and it was exactly what we asked for including my request for a non-runny poached egg. The lady serving breakfast also took our payment when we checked out and she was lovely and chatty and very helpful. The parking space for only £5 was perfect in such a busy city too. All 3 of us loved our stay and will definitely be back with the rest of the family!
Reviewer: Julie W | Mon 9th Dec 2019 | 5 years ago
Absolute gem of a place, From walking in to the cosy lounge and being met with a warm welcome to the WOW factor of our room you would find it difficult to find a 5 star hotel that was better than this and only a stones throw from the centre. Extra touches like the mince pies and glass of sherry in the room, high quality toiletries in the bathroom and the most comfortable bed with Egyptian cotton sheets I have ever slept in helped make it a perfect stay...Thank You so much, we will return
Reviewer: Kim, P | Mon 9th Dec 2019 | 5 years ago
We arrived at Minster with a lovely friendly welcome from Ruth who explained all about our room, breakfast and facilities.On arrival to our room we were greeted with clean surroundings,mince pies, sherry/port and a complimentary bottle of bubbles.Breakfast was ordered and was excellent also offering cereal and juices.Our trip to york was definitely made easier staying close to town and in a warm a friendly environment (especially when we saw the taxi queues on sat night).Would definitely recommend and we hope to return when it is warmer to enjoy boat and bus rides.Thank you yo ruth and her team.

Reviewer: Colin B | Sat 7th Dec 2019 | 5 years ago

Charming B&B which has a lovely homely feel. The room we had was lovely and cosy and decorated with real attention to detail,more importantly, the bed was huge and very comfortable. Conveniently situated only a short stroll from town and lots of bars & restaurants close by. The whole place has a very welcoming feel with extras I wouldn't expect, such as tea/coffee and cake in the lounge for you to help yourself to. Permit parking available within a few minutes walk. Breakfast is freshly cooked to order, and the usual cereals, juices, breads etc included. All in all I would describe it as 'a little gem'and would definitely recommend. We only stayed for one night, but I would loved to have stayed longer and will most definitely stay there again if I return to York.

I rarely write reviews, but feel absolutely compelled to on this occasion in the hope that others can be rewarded with this gem.We had a short one night break in York, away from the kids (yay!) and in this short time the team at Minster Walk have ensured that this is our new home from home for any visits to York.I won't list the things done to make me write this review, as they will seem largely incidental, but instead focus on the way they were done.Everything from our welcome to our leaving, including being able to store luggage both before check in, and after check out, was done with such a lovely feel it really did feel like we were highly valued.There was such a feeling of warmth and welcome, and it came across constantly.The location is great, it was super quiet and the bed was SO comfortable.Honestly would struggle to recommend it higher.
Reviewer: Jamie A | Mon 14th Oct 2019 | 5 years ago
We stayed here for only one night but wish it was for more. The welcome at the point of arrival was fabulous. Friendly staff and super clean place. The room we were allocated was bright and immaculate with lots of lovely toiletries and plenty of tea and coffee and biscuits. The beds were so comfortable we didn’t want to get up in the morning. In fact the sheets were so soft that we asked where they got them from so we might order some for ourselves onceback home . I might have to save up a bit as they are very pricey and it shows in the quality. They even have tea and coffee downstairs in the reception/ sitting area with cake each day for you to help yourself too. Breakfast was awesome. Excellent sausages,none of the cheep stuff here. We will definitely be back again and recommend to all our friends.

We stayed for my other half's birthday, and the guest house was lovely, Ruth was very helpful with sorting out parking and the room was beautiful.My only issue was that we had no towels at all, which was a shame as everything else was great.

We stayed one night. Unfortunately for us we were late checking in and had to leave early. We had a lovely room, immaculately clean, massive comfortable bed, tastefully decorated. Check in was really easy and free parking. We will definitely come back but next time will have more time to enjoy our surroundings. Highly recommend.

Clean, modern bathrooms, with quaint small period rooms. Definitely not a hotel, but a lovely guesthouse experience. Great pub next door and 5 mins from York station. For someone who travels as much as I do it's a welcome respite from a standard business hotel.

Great location within easy reach of the Citys best sights. Lovely comfortable room and the combination of DIY and cooked breakfast worked well. Friendly, helpful staff. Our only niggle was the steep, tight stairs which are not particularly disability friendly or for someone with less than optimum mobility. Nice wee pub next door was a bonus .
Reviewer: Kevin K | Mon 19th Aug 2019 | 5 years ago
Refurbishment was ongoing but did not spoil our stay.The breakfast on both days was first class and the only complaint we have is that there was no wardrobe or clothes hanging facility in room 5.See you next year.

Reviewer: Peter C | Fri 2nd Aug 2019 | 5 years ago
The guest house was perfect for a gift for my in-laws (both in their 70s). It is ideally located within walking distance of the Minster and other attractions. They had a lovely time and said the bed was extremely comfortable. The guest house was very clean and welcoming and they commented on how quiet the room was considering it's proximity to the centre. In my brief visit I was impressed and am most probably going to book for myself. I have already recommended it to friends and other family members!

Reviewer: Lyall H | Sat 20th Jul 2019 | 5 years ago
The guest house couldn't be in a better location for someone arriving and departing by train.It's so close to everything I wanted to walk to.Everyone one was very kind and informative, and handled my dietary restrictions and early departure with ease and efficiency.I liked my room very much, but visitors to older buildings always need to keep in mind that stairs and street noise are factor in their visit.
Reviewer: Catherine F | Sat 6th Jul 2019 | 5 years ago
We loved our stay at the Guest House. Our room (Room 1) was lovely, very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The superking bed was just amazing.We arrived by train and it took only 10 minutes to walk to the Guest House, which is centrally located and only 5 minutes to York Minster and the city center.In the morning, we had a cooked breakfast, which was beautifully cooked. The lady that served us was lovely and friendly and nothing was too much trouble.Thank you again, we will be back!

We will hopefully be back to visit again very soon.

Amazing stay at this quirky little guesthouse! Location is ideal for everything close to the York Minster and the centre for bars and restaurants. Parking is available close by or free with the permit from the guesthouse (must park in specific location or you will get a ticket)The guesthouse had just reopened but it was quirky, clean and welcoming! We had room 6 on the top floor which was spacious and clean, very warm so there was a fan in the room! Breakfast was brilliant and a wide selection! Overall amazing stay!
Reviewer: Lauren H | Sun 2nd Jun 2019 | 5 years ago
We stayed at Minster walk guest house on a Friday night. We arrived early and where given a car pass so we could enjoy exploring without paying to park. The little snug was our favourite part of the guest house it was full of character and the lemon drizzle was lovely. We stayed in room 2 it was nice and clean with all the facilities needed. Breakfast was really nice as well couldn't fault anything. Would definitely stay again.

A lovely, quirky little space in a quiet street near the Minster. Comfortable bed, beautiful room, nice tea and shampoo, good wifi etc. Would definitely stay here again. I think it is about to close for refurbishment - hope it doesn't change too much. I didn't try breakfast but there are so many nice cafes around.
Reviewer: Anna K | Mon 22nd Apr 2019 | 5 years ago
We booked the guest house for the Easter weekend and with only 10 days to go didn't expect to find anywhere like this. Perfectly cosy for a romantic break, excellent price, great breakfast, but the location is the best part. Looks out on to the city walls and less than 5 minute walk to the Minster.Perfect weekend.
Reviewer: Daniel F | Sun 21st Apr 2019 | 5 years ago

Location is as close to centre as you could wish.We were met with a smile and shown to our room which was perfect for our short stay. A lovely and appreciated touch was the tea/coffee and cake in the snug after a day feet, just like being back in the alps for afternoon tea after skiing.The parking was a bonus as was the breakfast (free if booked via Minster Walk website) we will be back next time in York.

Reviewer: Helen T | Mon 1st Apr 2019 | 6 years ago
We Stayed for two nights in this lovely establishment and we will certainly stay here again.The room was very pleasant, clean and bright. The bed was HUGE and one of the best I have slept in while in hotels or guest houses.The large tv was a surprise as was the choice of drinks available in the room, more than your usual 4 teabags and 4 coffee sachets and the free parking was appreciatedTracey the chef was lovely, very friendly and cooks a mean breakfast using top quality produce, no cheap sausage or water filled bacon here.The addition of a comfortable snug room offering free tea, coffee and home made cake was a lovely added bonus and It’s only a short 5 minute walk from the city centre with all its shops restaurants and barsThe only bad thing, Windows could do with a blackout blind as the sun shining early morning meant I was awake at 5:30am because the curtains let the light inThe proprietors of this guest house seem to care about their guests comfort and have gone the extra mile to ensure it

This was my first time visiting York and i cannot wait to plan my next visit already. Our host Ruth was fantastic; welcoming, knowledgeable, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. She gave us a tour of the beautiful guest house and then directed us to our room which was immaculate and full of additional items which made our stay even more special.One we had settled in, she showed us a map and highlighted great places to eat/drink and visit and told us about all the best places to visit in York. Breakfast the next morning was delicious and it was obvious that the produce was locally sourced as it was totally delicious! I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again - top place, top location and top host!! Thanks :) xx

We really enjoyed our stay at Minster Walk. It was a last minute booking for us and we were very pleased to find such a charming place. It has an excellent location and is convenient for exploring the city on foot fortified by a well cooked breakfast. The staff go out of their way to be friendly and helpful and supply a personal touch missing from the corporate hotels. The provision of cake and coffee is welcome. The room at the "top of the shop" was comfortable and well appointed.( I would advise some hooks on the back of the bathroom door though and a bedside lamp would be good)I look forward to another stay in the future.

The current owners have had the place for about a year and have put a lot of effort making Minster Wallk a beautifully appointed Guest House with a boutique feel.I had to visit York at short notice and booked direct, having read a few reviews of this and a few other nearby hotels.I got a personal email reply from Ruth, one of the owners, with all the information I could need - the personal touch was done well throughout.This was part of a friendly feel, which can only really be achieved in a small establishment.Lovely room and lovely breakfast - latter free to direct bookers.I would definitely visit again.

No complaints at all from this first stay at Minster Walk. Very well organised place. Room was spotless and the interior design was modern, but in keeping with the style of the property. Owners, Rob and Lisa, were extremely friendly and helpful. Due to working overseas, I have travelled extensively across the Middle East and SE Asia. I’ve stayed in some nice places over the years but it’s not often that you stay in a place that has got everything right. Rob and Lisa seem to have done that.I complaints from me at all. I will visit again.

Another welcoming and very comfortable stay for the second year in a row, my sister and I always visit York together for a pre-Christmas treat and last minute shopping, last year being the first that we decided to stay overnight and discovered Minster walk. Beautiful clean and comfortable rooms with a very welcome coffee and cake lounge, a lovely surprise to find sherry and mince pies in our room. great location close to the abbey gardens and York minster, waking up to the sound of the abbey bells and a delicious breakfast ! Will most definitely be booking for 2019 !

We are a middle/late aged couple with a daughter aged 20. Wanting to be centrally located but still quiet, we booked the family room 6 for one night wanting to take in the sights and do some Christmas Shopping. This place fitted the bill,its very clean, comfortable and with friendly staff. The beds were comfortable and spotless. The extras inclusive of a welcome drink of sherry and mince pie left in the room added a little extra plus help yourself to cake and a drink downstairs. The pre ordered breakfast was good but as a personal choice we would have liked some fruit and natural yoghurt as well. However, there were tubs of fruited yoghurt. The entrance door was by a secure keypad but the number was not put on our welcome letter so we got locked out and had to ring to get the keypad number. Perhaps this could be included in future within their welcome letter pro forma template? Overall an extremely impressive thumbs up and recommendation to all.

I was looking for a little last minute getaway in York, when I stumbled across this guest house online. The pictures caught my eye so I had a browse and I was very impressed. Every review is a positive and I can see why.The accommodation is beautiful and definitely what we both needed, i love how the rooms have been designed especially the downstairs one. It’s full of tea, coffee, water and homemade cakes for you to indulge in. It’s so peaceful and relaxing, the perfect break from everyday life. The breakfast was delicious and we had a good natter with the lady who is the chef. We stayed in a double room on this occasion and it was perfect, we are hoping to return again in the next 3 weeks, but this time will be requesting to try out the other king size rooms as we’ve heard these are beautiful too. Highly recommend, you’ll have a great stay here. Can’t wait to visit again.Michael & Ashley
