Ascot House, highly recommended

Very pleased with our visit to Ascot House. The owner was very friendly and informative. The room was lovely,the bed and bedding excellent and the bathroom was superb. The breakfast each day was very tasty and the food cooked to order. The location was also excellent. Just over 10 minutes walk into York and a bus stop just down the road. Car park at Ascot House available but sometimes full. However parking allowed on side road so no problem.

Comfortable, clean and loaded with character.

We both fell in love with this beautiful Victorian house and its wonderful landlady. We were made very welcome and given a map of York together with an explanation about the Bars and Gates. Our room was imaculate and boasted a modern shower room, with plenty of towels. There was plenty to chose from for breakfast, but we both opted for the Full English (of course) locally sourced sausage and bacon. There is a car park, but i can't remember seeing a lift. We're already planning a return visit.

Very quiet and and clean. Typical English cottage taken from a history movie, with a homey feeling. Loved staying there. Walked to town easily when the weather was good, or took the buss (station very close). Would love to stay there again when visiting York.

Absolutley fabulous place! This is a gorgeous, family run hotel with a great room that included a four poster bed. It's in easy walk to York Minster. Nice and quiet, and has great breakfasts. Would absolutely stay here again and recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing, comfortable place to stay.

Absolutely spotlessly clean hotel, a little old fashioned in its decor but a gorgeous building with a beautiful staircase and stained glass window. The bedroom was modern and clean, the bathroom was clearly very new with a lovely shower, sadly no where to put my washbag near the sink in the bathroom and the bedroom was too dark to use the free standing mirror to put makeup on at the dressing table! (I was in room 23 up in the roof space so only had velux windows) Nice touch with tea and coffee had to pop over the road to the Co op for a bottle of water! The stairs up to the roof bedrooms is very very narrow with small treads so not easy getting up with a suitcase so beware if your mobility is slightly compromised. The breakfast was cooked to order, which was fantastic, with a great selection of cold meats, cereals, fruit juice etc etc, no reason to go hungry. June was lovely and gave me a very warm welcome. Would i stay again - absolutely though parking was difficult as the car park was almost full with one space spare but careless parking by the other residents meant i had to park on the road outside, which is fine if you are leaving before 9am which i was.

Great place to stay, very clean and service excellent, breakfast is very good, full English, individually cooked and coupled with fresh fruit, yoghurt and cereal, makes for a hearty start to the day. A steady stroll of about 15mins and you are in the centre of all the York attractions. Dog friendly. Would definitely recommend the Ascot for anyone wanting to visit York
