Firstly the car parking is of poor arrangements Secondly when you report the Electric shaving point in your bathroom is broken, the reception say it will get fixed, it does not.

I picked Hotel 53 for a two night stay based on previous reviews and value for money, and I wasn't disappointed. The hotel looks as it does in the pictures so contemporary decor and very clean. We stayed in a standard double which was plenty big enough for the two of us and had all the amenities needed for a... more

I ordered room service as I arrive quite late and... more

My husband and I stayed here for two nights in July and were really impressed. The hotel is is in an excellent location close to the centre of York and perfect for exploring the various attractions. It is clean, modern and pretty much exactly as it looks on the website. The rooms are very comfortable, the only slight downside being... more

My husband booked this hotel for our 1st wedding anniversary and on the booking he mentioned that we were celebrating it wasn't even acknowledged.
