Location is perfect. We have stayed here twice before and had a river view room, which was lovely. The breakfast is superb and there is plenty of choice to cater for everyone. We didn't have a river view this time, which we would have liked, but the extra per night for one of those was a bit steep. There are a lot of older guests, which suits us. No large single sex groups are allowed.
On the banks of the River Foss, Novotel York Center is located near the historical city walls and a short river stroll to the center.

Although abounding in reminders of the past, York is very much a city for the here and now, with excellent shops, bars and restaurants, many along the River Ouse. Surrounding it are the medieval city walls – the longest and best preserved in England – and many of the gates that once gave access to the city.
Walk the walls for wonderful views of the city and towering York Minster. Standing proud on a hill, this cavernous church is the seat of the Archbishop of York, the 2nd highest position in the Church of England.
A little south is The Shambles, a narrow street with medieval buildings that now house quaint shops. Going further back in time is the Jorvik Centre, a fascinating museum showcasing the city’s Viking remains. You can even try out archaeology for yourself at the DIG excavation pits, with replica finds from York’s Roman, Viking, medieval and Victorian eras.
Other York attractions include the National Railway Museum, home to the Flying Scotsman and Mallard trains. Around a 30-minute drive away, Castle Howard is a stately home on an over 1,000-acre estate.
Leeds-Bradford Airport is the nearest airport, and there's a great range of hotels, B&Bs and guesthouses in York and on the outskirts available on Booking.com.
York is bursting with fascinating places. There’s ancient architecture and historical interest around every corner and the main places to see are all to be found within a fairly compact, pedestrian friendly centre. A huge range of food and drink is on offer and the locals seem (justifiably) proud of their beautiful city and its rich history.

I would say to make sure you wear comfortable shoes because there are cobbled streets. It is quite crowded mid morning on so I would suggest walking around early if you want to get a good look. The shops will be open later...

Bit of both worlds - of course there is the modern with the usual shops but there is another side too.
The Shambles is like stepping back into Harry Potter and the ramparts which can be walked around are just fantastic. Then there is the Minster but do walk there if possible as parking pretty horrendous as you might expect.
Museums and galleries to explore and if your better half doesn't go for all the history stuff then leave them in the coffee houses and vast array of shops and meet back up later.
Easy to get around if you don't mind walking a bit and often uphill ( well slight inclines anyway). The bridges are lovely too and make easy muster points.
Have a drive around the surrounding countryside too - Beverley and Pocklington and Stamford Bridge - all easy driving and well worth that day out.
Just lovely.

York is an absolute must.
York is an absolute must. Out of 9 cities in the UK over 2.5 weeks, it is in our top 2-3. It is full of history, character, and uniqueness you will not find anywhere else. The Minster was our favorite (even over Westminster). We loved walking the cobble streets, the Shambles, shopping, pubs, restaurants, the Wall, learning of the significant pivotal history York was. We will be back!

A walk around the walls. The railway museum was brilliant.
A walk around the walls. The railway museum was brilliant. The Treasurer's House (NT) was very interesting with a lovely cafe and garden. Both cafe and garden can be visited without paying the entrance fee. Evensong at the Minster was lovely and the interior as beautiful as the outside. York is a great place to amble around, nice shops, lots of good places to eat and drink. Second visit to Little Italy and the food was delicious. Interesting architecture.
We came for a 2 night stay. We were very kindly upgraded when we arrived, which was so lovely. The hotel was clean and nicely decorated. The bed and bedding were fabulous like sleeping on a cloud.room facilities were great, tea and coffee station, huge t.v, beautiful veiw from the room.The leisure facilities were excellent, very clean and were open till late so we got to use them after a day and night of walking all of York.Bus stop just outside, to take you into the train station or york city centre.We would definitely stay again.
All of the staff were extremely polite, friendly, helpful and efficient. Improvements in the reception and lounge areas from our previous stay in this hotel were very good. The food at dinner was excellent and breakfast had a wide choice of items and again was a great start to the day. The room was spacious with a very comfortable bed. The room was also very clean on arrival. The hotel is in a great location near to a park and ride which takes you into York city centre.
A nice, unassuming guest house with simple accommodations. The rooms are small but use the space well. The bathroom is tiny but again, this is a guest house and not a four-star hotel. The owner is very friendly and helpful, and for five pounds prepares a wonderful breakfast of a ham sandwich and coffee. The ham (bacon) is fresh from a local butcher. Located 10 minutes by foot from the Minster and central York.
Location was really great, very central and near to the main sights of York City centre. Breakfast was good. Liked the variety and option for a hot breakfast too. I would have preferred it starting slightly earlier but I appreciate most don't get up early at the weekend. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating so that is a real plus. Makes a massive difference to your perception of a short hotel stay.
I booked my room after checking out of an awful hotel. It was affordable, the staff were great and helpful, the room was clean and everything was working. The shower is a decent size and the bed was very comfy. It's only 8 mins from York city centre so the location is also great. It was my first time staying at a Radisson and am happy to say I'll do so several times more because you get what you expect.
Room: Received an upgrade! Comfortable, clean and not noisy,
Location: Beside the Clifford Tower. Easy walking distance to most of the York attractions.
Breakfast: Full selection available including, full English, cold meats and cheese, scones, muffins etc.
Parking: Valet parking is available on site. There is also a Pay and Display public site opposite the hotel.
Lovely hotel room, great value and owners provided great customer service. Could park directly outside hotel and they provided a parking notice so didn't have to pay anything. Room was very clean, gas central heating is very warm and also has a fan in case it gets too hot. Within walking distance into York Town Centre. Will definitely stay here again when I'm in York.
Great hotel, the staff where really friendly. We chose this one because breakfast was included and the rooms where a good size. Breakfast was good. Our room also had a jacuzzi bath and a four poster bed. There was also parking round the back. It was about a 40minute walk into the centre of York and there was a nice pub down the road. We would stay here again.
This was our second stay at this hotel.
The location is ideal as it's easy to find and only a 10 minute flat walk in to the city centre. Secure parking on site is a huge bonus as parking in the city is expensive.
Good size rooms. Excellent little bar and the staff are super friendly.
Will definitely book again when staying in York.
We loved this place. Gorgeous hotel with amazing staff! Loved the decor & the restaurant was fabulous. Great value for money it felt like a 5 star treatment the whole time we were there. Location is walking distance to the centre of York. We also had treatments in the spa which I highly recommend.
The room was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was excellent-better than some I've had in more expensive hotels. The location was brilliant for the York Barbican and also close to the park & ride bus service into the city centre.
Great location, secure parking a major plus.
normally stay in a hotel when visiting York. but decided to try an apartment. was not disappointed and the extra room was excellent and more relaxing. would highly recommend this property.
Very close to Center of York AND WITH PARKING !! We booked through Booking.com as slightly cheaper but car parking £7 per night . We were informed parking would have been free if booked with Hotel directly..
Centrally located in York city centre. Not far from the train station. The hotel had ample parking also if you need it. The hotel room was large, well laid out and comfortable. Great breakfast also.
all the staff were very friendly.
The room was very clean and a comfortable bed.
Breakfast and other meals were freshly cooked.
