Judges Court

The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming.

Money has been spent in the areas that matter most. The bed and linen were very good, the bathroom was excellent with good water pressure, rain shower, and Molton Brown toiletries, therefore making our visit comfortable. Plenty of electrical sockets, clothing storage, and extra pillows. The building is presented very well and is charming in its character.

Incredible how quiet it was for being on one of the busiest streets in central oldtown York. The fact that the windows could be open all night and not hear a peep! Felt immense privacy too, as our windows faced a brick wall.. so sure, no "view", but, it made for privacy and quiet and you can see great things everywhere else in the city. The room was also very, very clean and the staff were SO nice. The room was beautifully designed - simple, clean, and modern feeling even though you are in a gorgeous old building. If you want to be in the center of everything, but still come home at night to peace and quiet, I highly recommend!

Loved the location. I liked the fact it’s hidden. So quiet yet in the centre of town. The staff were lovely. The decor whilst sparse is quirky which as an artist I also loved. There was coffee and tea etc with a biscuit available in the rooms. The hotel has no restaurant or bar but I like that it doesn’t because you’re not assailed with food smells and noise at all hours. Step outside the hotel and within a few steps all sorts of cuisines and drinks are available. The bed was exceptionally comfortable as were the pillows. There are lights on all night outside from surrounding buildings as one would expect in a city but the blackout curtains made it a non issue.

The building was atmospheric and was directly in the centre, and a couple of minutes walk from the shambles and about a 10 minute walk from York minster. You felt secure as the hotel is back from the main street down an alleyway, which has a key coded gate.
