The bed is wonderfully comfortable, the breakfast is of quality ingredients and wonderfully cooked. The place is spotless, not far from town and the owners so helpful. Need I say more? more

We stayed in Holmwood House in November 2008. We had the room with a four poster bed, which the housekeeper said was their best room. I asked them to change the bedding because it was creased and very worn. (The housekeeper did leave us a bottle of wine to make us feel better, which was very nice of her.)The windows... more

Having travelled across the Penines to get there on a cold miserable day we arrived to a lovely warm welcome. The room was lovely, clean and warm and the lights were on. It was quite late on the Friday and the receptionist recommeded a lovely retaurant and organised us a taxi. The breakfast in the morning was one of the... more

This hotel is nothing other than a B&B. They describe it as home from home, but I certainly didn't feel at home. The room was way overpriced at £185.00 for 2 nights for 2 of us. The room can only be described as twee, the towels had seen better days. The breakfast was very nice and served by very nice... more

We stayed for four nights and had the attic room, which has brilliant veiws over the city centre. The room was nice and spacious, with a very good sized en-suite bathroom. The hotel is just 10 minutes walk to the city wall, and has a good sized car park for those that need it. Breakfast had a good selection so... more

We found the Holmwood warm and comfortable, the breakfasts delicious, the staff friendly and the whole establishment clean. As owners of a 4* B&B ourselves we know what we're talking about. Claims of a 10-minute walk to centre of York are a bit optimistic unless you're a sprinter, but it's still pretty convenient. Only complaint is that rooms to the... more

Great B&B

Booked last minute for some Christmas shopping and as York was quite busy didn't expect to get such a good deal. Stayed on a midweek 3 nights for the price of 2 basis. Didn't check the reviews before I went and feel this would have put me off if I had. We had a good experience here.The hotel is only... more

I have booked many a stay via an establishment's website. I typically check reviews, but I don't always pay attention to them. This is one instance in which I wished I had. I booked Holmwood house based on the content of their website and the attributions of quality recognition that it represented. The reality was, in my opinion, something less.... more

Having considered the high tariff of £90 B&B would reflect the quality, I arrived late afternoon to be advised through the intercom system "I'm setting up for breakfast - you'll have to wait in the guest lounge". Eventually a tense-looking lady went through check-in process, no eye contact, no smile - I assumed that breakfast set up hadn't gone too... more

August and room freezing with no heating, lights that don't work, shower awful and television with no remote control. Carpets in the loo. Really old fashioned. Staff good but not for us. Stayed for 4 nights. York is fantastic with really good restaurants but there are better places to stay more
