We spent the first two days of our 20 day trip to the UK and Ireland at Abbeyfields and this B&B was one of our favorites. It was byfar the best B&B breakfast of all the places we stayed. The full English breakfast was the least greasy and most delicious of all our english breakfasts.The smell of fresh baked bread... More

First what a great location. A charming tree lined road and a pleasant 5 minute stroll through Museum Park into the heart of the City. We travelled by car and the B&B has arrangements for free on street parking more or less opposite the front door. The owners Al and Les have made Abbeyfields a real gem of a place... More

I stayed for 5 nights in a single room back in May 2013. I cannot say enough - the hosts were exceptionally friendly and welcoming; they were there to greet me; the breakfasts were unbeatable; I had a single room on the 2nd floor and was helped with my heavy case; they left a very comprehensive binder listing restaurants, museums,...

This is a lovely little hotel a few minutes walk from York city centre and is very reasonably priced. Les and Al, the owners are friendly and recommended an excellent guided walk around York. My room was clean, comfortable and was very quiet. Another benefit to staying here is being woken by the smell of bread being baked in the... More

My husband and I just got back from traveling through the UK for 12 days. Abbeyfields was a FAVORITE and made our experience in York outstanding! The hospitality was out of this world and Al and Les were kind to suggest things to do in York. The breakfast was delicious, especially the homemade bread! They made us feel at home!

We loved staying here, Les and Al were just brilliant and helped us to maximise the short time we had - enjoyed all the 'places to eat' recommendations by our lovely hosts. Warning - singing and dancing occurs in the kitchen during breakfast preparation! Comfortable, clean, great attention to detail, nicely themed rooms based on places in York. York is... More

The weather was unseasonably cold but our stay at Abbeyfields helped a lot to warm things up. Mostly we talked to Les who was very friendly and helpful. Great breakfasts to start the day. We had the top room. Wouldn't hesitate to book again.

This was our second visit to Abbeyfields and it just gets better! Al and Les were once again the perfect hosts - nothing being too much trouble for them. Breakfasts are superb - more than enough to eat. Rooms are well-appointed and very pleasant. Nothing to complain about at all. We feel sure we will be visiting again.

Abbeyfields is probably the nicest B&B I have ever stayed in, and certainly the best value. Les and Al provided not only a delightful, clean and cosy room and a fantastic breakfast, but there were other nice touches like fresh flowers and the alluring smell of fresh bread baking every morning!
