The Galtres... A perfect place to stay in York. Location is great, central, surrounded by pubs, shops, bars, restaurant, a few steps from York Minster, couple of minutes walk to the Shambles, 13 minute walk from the train station.
Our room was spotless, checking in was easy, arrived 3 hours early, but room was ready so accessed that straight away. Little bit quirky, I guess no two rooms the same, old fireplace, massive mirrors and a Wimbledon wicker basket at decor.
Breakfast was amazing, gorgeous food, great selection and waiting staff always happy to help. Didn't eat there at other times, but the restaurant always looked busy inside and out.
Two minor faults, could have squoze a small dressing table/desk into the room, and be prepared for a small amount of noise in the morning with delivery vehicles around, not a big problem though.
I would definitely visit again, and recommend anyone visiting York to look at this place as somewhere really nice to stay.

Guest UserThe building features a very large parking lot, which is quite convenient. We reside on the first floor, making it easy to access our home. Although the building is a little old, it remains in decent condition and serves its purpose well. One of the highlights of our stay is the breakfast, which is surprisingly good by British standards.

We only used the accommodation for two nights without breakfast or any other meals. The room was very clean and had everything we needed. The staff were friendly and the coffee was great. The decor was really nice with a jazz feel. It was very quaint and vintage.
I would imagine a stay in the summer would be very nice as the courtyard was very pretty and peaceful.

It was a very good experience staying in the Vikings. I would definitely go stay again next time I visit to York. It took us 15 minutes walk to the city centre and there is also some cafe and shops nearby.

Guest UserThe location is excellent and the bed was comfortable. It was also very quiet at night so I had a good night’s sleep.
However, my check-in experience was disappointing. I arrived at around 5:30 pm and waited outside for more than 15 minutes. I rang the bell several times but no one answered. After I finally got inside, there was still no receptionist and I had to wait longer before I could check in.
The bathroom also needs more attention. After people showered, the floor was very wet and dirty and there was nothing available to clean or dry it.
Overall, the location and room were good, but the check-in process and bathroom cleanliness could definitely be improved.

Steven DowsonBeautiful old pub located on the main road into York from the south. Car parking at the rear. Takes about twenty minutes to walk to the Minster and the route takes you past Clifford's Tower & The Shambles. The room was very clean & tidy, decorated simply & tastefully. Shower was hot and efficient. We slept well although we prefer a firmer bed. The pub is on a main road but it was quiet during the night & we weren't disturbed by visitors to the bar (we stayed on a Thursday). Good beer, I had a pint of Wainwright's Gold. Staff were very friendly and helpful, we would definitely stay again, much better to support a local business like this than the big brands. My wife is Chinese and wanted a Chinese breakfast, we found a place called Noodle Lane about ten minutes walk from the hotel, it was expensive but authentic.

The staff in reception & at breakfast were efficient & friendly. Free WiFi was for 30 minutes within 24 hours.
Did not provide a toilet brush in the bathroom. When asked the reply was ring the reception & someone will pop in to clean the toilet!
I had a quiet room in the first floor with a view facing the river.
Surprised there was no chest of drawers or shelves to put my clothes. I had to leave it in my suitcase. It would be rather inconvenient for guests staying more than 2 nights.
The desk lamp didn’t work. Didn’t see any hair drier in the room.

DuckCat1207Positives: well priced, beautiful location, breakfast included.
Negatives: the older man on reception would not acknowledge me at check in, despite it being booked and paid for by myself (a female), he insisted on only discussing check in with my partner (male). Sexism is not what I was expecting at a country hotel.
Second issue was the floorboards were INCREDIBLY squeaky. I was woken at 5am by the room above me walking around and I’m aware when I walked around the floor in my room was just as squeaky. It was annoying and disruptive.
The hotel was pretty and well kept outside but it is not what is shown in the first image on Trip. Inside the room was a little dated and could’ve been cleaner.

ทางเข้าหาอยาก ไม่มีพนักงานตอนรับ และ ระหัสที่ส่งให้ ทางเมล์ ใช้ไม่ได้ ต้องโทรไป ขอ และถ้าคนต่างชาติไม่มีเบอร์ภายในประเทศ ค่าโทรแพงมาก และ พนักงาน สำเนียง ไม่ใช้ อังกฤษ หรืออเมริกัน ฟังยากมาก ตัวเลข ฟังไม่ออก จนมีเพื่อนบ้านมาช่วยฟัง โดยรวม ไม่ ok
The entrance is difficult to find, there is no receptionist, and the code sent via email does not work. You have to call to ask for it. If you are a foreigner and do not have a local number, the call fee is very expensive. The staff's accent is not British or American, which is very difficult to understand. I could not understand the numbers until a neighbor came to help me listen. Overall, it is not okay.
