The Watergate Inn Review

Situated 650 metres from York Beach, the 3-star Watergate Inn York offers 15 guest rooms. Located in a short walking distance to York Minster as well as York's Chocolate Story, the inn includes cycling and fishing.

    Value for money

The location of the hotel is perfect, right in the heart of the action. It is very close to the centre of this city, making it easy to walk everywhere and find everything close by. Additionally, the hotel offers good security and parking facilities, which made our stay even more convenient.

For us, it was ideal.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The cleanliness was spot on, and the hotel facilities were great. The secure car park was a huge advantage, especially in this city where it can be hard to find parking. The location next to the river foss was beautiful and provided a peaceful atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive, making our stay even more enjoyable.

Nothing, everything was good.

The hotel's excellent location in the central area of this city made it very convenient for exploring the Xmas Market and the city centre. We were only a five-minute walk away from all the attractions. The staff was very friendly and helpful, creating a great atmosphere throughout our stay. The room was clean and comfortable, and we appreciated the tea and coffee facilities.

Nothing bad to say. The hotel provided all the necessary amenities, and we had a pleasant and enjoyable stay.

I was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the hotel, with spotless rooms and complimentary toiletries. The comfortable bed made for a good night's sleep. Additionally, the location was ideal, just a short two-minute walk to the city center, where I found a variety of fabulous bars, restaurants, and historical sites. The secure parking provided was a real bonus.

Nothing to mention.
