Heworth Inn and Rooms

Greeted by a lovely bar staff member, who served us straight away and took our food order. When our food came out it was steaming hot and it had great presentation. Will definitely be visiting again. I would recommend to all of you to come down and grab some nibbles of the menu.

Stayed for 4 nights. At £80 per night, we weren’t expecting the height of luxury. We were out and about all day and merely wanted a good nights sleep and somewhere to get ready. We got neither. The good stuff: the bed was comfy. The room was a decent size. Plenty of storage. Good location - just a 15 minute stroll into the centre - with a free car park. The not so good stuff: they didn’t have any record of our booking on arrival so we had a tense wait (after travelling 4+ hours) to see whether we could have a room. The barman offered a drink whilst we waited for him to hear back from the landlady. It might have been a nice touch if that had been ‘on the house’ been as we were hanging around for nearly an hour. It wasn’t. Room was finally sorted and we had something booked in York at 4 so we quickly dumped the bags and left. Was told there was no wifi because “it wasn’t working”. No major issue Got back late. Room was boiling hot. Heating on full pelt and no way of turning it down. Had to open all the windows which meant it was quite noisy (main road). The bathroom door kept blowing open and was very squeaky. Not the best night’s sleep. Next morning we realised there were no towels (or milk). Went to try and find someone but the place is deserted until the pub opens. Rang a mobile number from the booking. They did apologise and said it would be sorted. Shortly after, a knock at the door and towels thrust at me (obviously been woken up 😫). Having looked more closely, there’s 1 bath towel and a hand towel (2 of us in the room) . Both threadbare and a bit smelly. Tried to find someone again but no luck. Made do. Shower was rubbish. Not much more than a drizzle which seemed to be either freezing or boiling. After another lovely day in York we tried once again to get towels and milk but with zero luck. By day 3 we had finally got towels but still no milk and toilet roll is pretty much run out at this point. Finally went to leave and had been pretty much blocked in on the car park. Again, no one around to try and get it moved so spent 15 minutes slowly inching the car out. York is amazing. We had a fab few days and will definitely return. But with little sleep and a real lack of the absolute basics, it won’t be to this place…

What a joke of a pub. New Year's Eve and early doors they run out of ice, gin, vodka, two draft beers and left with flat Coors. Add to this serving what they do have left in ridiculous glasses (spirit in a coke glass) because none of the bar staff can be bothered collecting the empties from tables full of empty glasses! No wonder they only had The Gillygate for a short period of time before having to move on. Obviously haven't learnt from their mistakes! Avoid!

We went for the weekend and had a lovely time. The owners were so helpful and lovely. The rooms were clean and what you’d expect for an inn and had tea and coffee, toiletries and towels. Would definitely go back after such a great experience with the owners - a huge thank you to them for all the tips (and the free shot each!).

Visited The Heworth Inn on Saturday. Have recently moved to the area and it was recommended by friends. Very friendly hosts and a good a**osphere. A DJ was playing cool music when we arrived and there was a tribute to Shane Macgowan at the end of his set which made our night. We had a really fun time and are looking forward to coming back soon.

Me and my partner checked in and after the long day we've had the dj downstairs was the way to brighten up the mood. Reasonably priced drinks and friendly and playfull staff which absolutely made our night. The room was clean and although the TV didnt work very well why should we let that ruin our experience? In fact, it made us spend more time with each other and value our own company more. 10/10 venue, definitely will be booking in again next time were in York!

Food was spot on , service was fast and polite and the staff are friendly the beds are very comfy and the environment was comfortable and I enjoy bringing my dog in every now and then but I also like the bands that play on weekends

So disappointed in my recent stay luckily only for one night!! Anna has a terrible attitude the room was not fit for purpose the shower un useable TV hopeless the milk was off…. Curtains paper thin the bar and restaurant is so dark the music in the bar was way too loud! Certainly not home cooked food…

Originally a very attractive late 19th century family house, with many interesting original features. The bars were refurbished a few years ago with decent carpets and seating. Unfortunately the bar walls are covered with TV screens in every available space. We called in the late afternoon. There were more TV screens than customers, and in addition to the distraction of the TVs, conversation was impeded by heavy punk rock being played rather too loudly. How difficult is it to just have a TV in one area ? Not a place for a relaxing drink.
