Great option for a budget stay in York

Lovely, well-appointed hostel just a 20 min walk from York city centre along the river. Room was clean, quiet and comfortable and the hostel has great facilities. Located right next to a beautiful park. Great value for money, would return.

Amazing experience!

I came with my friends to York for the for the first time, and the stay here made the overall experience wonderful. Everything was perfect, and in the morning we had a nice breakfast. I would stay here again on my next trip to York :))

Adey, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The staff was lovely and the accommodations were very clean and tidy. It was a very easy walk into the city center and we are glad we have the experience. The set up for the shower and toilet was tight, but it made sense if one is traveling with others who are not their family.
Maureen, 2-night trip

Fabulous stay.

Really good location for our stay in York as part of our cycling weekend. Handy to have the bike to get from YHA into York as otherwise would have been a 30 minute walk. Secure bike space. Helpful staff and good decor. Very clean dorm room.

Really uncomfortable bed...back is hurting ..pillows not comfortable....dirty toilets n showers really not very nice at all..window left open in bathroom bees buzzing in bathroom had to use other toilet ...internet not working....disappointed overall ...staff were pleasant
Firmeda, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great Location in York.

This is a well provisioned youth hostel with attentive staff.The location in York is excellent - it is a 20 minute walk alongside the river to the city centre. You can leave your car in the YHA car park. Noise from the heating system / extractor fans was an issue - it wasn't the quietest place. Also not cheap! Budget hotels can be cheaper than YHAs these days, but YHAs have kitchens and social spaces that make the difference.
