Top Foss Islands Hotel Reviews

DoubleTree by Hilton York

8/10 Good

"Parking not enough spaces at hotel charges were too expensive £25 per day stayed Friday 18:00 until 09:00 Sunday charged £50 not happy"

Hampton by Hilton York

10/10 Excellent

"Modern clean property in the heart of York. Rooms and bathrooms immaculate. Extensive breakfast options. Parking was a bit of a challenge made worse by roadworks and blocked off streets (not something the hotel acould do anything about) however overall a great place to stay, would book there again"

Roomzzz York City

10/10 Excellent

"Great location with beautiful views! We loved the coffee machine and croissants in the morning. Our bed was comfortable and the bathroom was a great size. The whole room was large actually! The washer and dryer availability was SO helpful too. We were so glad to have air con (& lifts) as well. Having to use your key card for the lift was kind of annoying, but we got used to it. Overall excellent stay!"

Hampton by Hilton York Piccadilly

8/10 Good

"The room was well furnished although storage space was a bit limited. There was no glass in the bathroom. The staff were helpful and friendly. They answered my questions cheerfully and patiently. The breakfast was okay. There was a good range of choice but the hot food varied in quality and temperature. The hotel is well positioned. There is good access to the city centre and the area is well served by public transport."
