My friends and I all stayed at Ace for my stag do during March 2013. I have not stayed in hostels before so I have nothing to really compare it to but I wouldn't hesitate going back here. The location is perfect for a night in York as its situated in between the train station and the night life, both... More

Recently stayed here for a hen party in York. Great location and you get what you pay for. The room was fine, staff friendly although the bathroom smelt pretty terrible. It is a ten minute walk from the train station, near the centre and is pretty quiet in the evening. A lovely building inside with good wifi facilities.

I spent one night here and was satisfied with the Hostel. The building is iconic and has an elegant interior with staircases and large paintings on the walls. The rooms were clean and the restrooms small. We were unfortunate to have a smelly traveler in our room, besides the odor it was a great choice.

So far one of the best hostel I have stayed in. Very welcoming and friendly staff. The hostel is located 5minutes from the train station and 5 minutes from the city centre. My room was really nicely decorated and had a private bathroom/shower. The breakfast in the morning was really good as well with a lot of different things to... More

After staying in several hostels throughout the UK i can say that the Ace Hostel in York is the best ive stayed in. The hostel is located central to most of the attractions within York and is only a five minute walk into the center of York. I stayed in the hostel as part of a college trip to York... More

The Ace Hostel was used for a residential study visit for 39 travel and tourism students plus 3 members of staff; this was the third time that we have used the Ace. The hostel has many positive points when taking students away (ages 16-20). The courtyard area that is used for smoking means that you can keep tabs on students... More

As hostals go this is one of the better ones, clean, friendly. well decorated. small noise issue but take ear plugs, solves the problem. Loved the idea of sleeping in a old georgian house, location is excellant for all that York has to offer. not ideal if you want peace and quiet but cheap, cheerfull, fun.

This was probably the best hostel in England I have ever stayed in. It is located really close to the centre and it's a walking distance to all of the major landmarks and other hidden places. I loved its decor which only made the atmosphere even better. All the staff was really friendly and the breakfast was more than I... More

The building itself is nice, great common areas, perhaps the only problem would be the kitchen - is a bit small. However, the main problem we had was our room. There was an air extractor on the room, working continuously, day and night, and it made a lot of noise. After only 20 minutes in the room we were getting... More
