Grays Court is a beautiful and truly unique place to stay in York. The staff were warm and friendly, the accommodations were full of historic character, and the gorgeous garden made the property feel especially peaceful.

The complimentary breakfast was delicious and incredibly generous. I enjoyed toast, tea, orange juice, and a full British breakfast.

The location is perfect for exploring historic York on foot. It is just steps from York Minster and within easy walking distance of the city’s old streets, shops, and attractions. I would happily stay here again!

The breakfast was excellent. Every single staff member we interacted with was lovely - friendly, helpful and quietly efficient. The grounds were stunning. We’d chosen one of the smaller bedrooms, but it didn’t matter as there were ample quiet and comfortable spots in the public areas. Gray’s Court is a wonderful haven right in the middle of York. A perfect location to see the city and actually very easy to get to as it is so near the city walls. Would recommend and hope to return

Tranquil convenient city centre location, just inside city walls. A comfortable and beautiful listed heritage building with emclosed relaxing gardens to view or explore. Attentive staff providing friendly and excellent service throughout with unexpected personal touches. Well-stocked bar and delicious freshly prepared foods, served in the impressive long gallery or dining room, both with great views. Clean, warm and very comfortable rooms with opening sash windows, period furnishings and decor, also well-serviced and with good facilities. Quiet at night despite being only moments away from York Minster, shops and restaurants. Pre-bookable on-site parking (at extra charge) a great option. Would not hesitate to recommend or return.

Everything about this property is perfect. Grays Court is the most wonderful hotel we have ever experienced. Nestled behind York Minster, this historic property has all the charm of York, with a staff that is by far the most welcoming and friendly. The rooms are updated while still maintaining that historical feel. We were lucky enough to be able to book “The Mortimer” room, and it was exceptional. It offered some great views of the minster, and was spacious and very charming. The breakfast was very well done, and had a great variety to choose from.

Taking a walk around the gardens is a must. They are so beautiful, and well maintained, and are enclosed by the property and the historic York City Walls.

Also, this hotel manages to attract lovely, friendly guest, some of which we had the pleasure of conversing with in the beautiful bar area/galley. We also got to know the owner and their family, as well as the staff, and they are the most charming people.

The hotel is within the perfect distance to the shambles, and York Minster. Please make this a stay of your if you plan to come to York. It will give you an experience you won’t forget. We will be returning to this property for years to come.

Gray’s Court is absolutely exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcomed, warm, attentive, and incredibly hospitable. You can tell they love what they do, and it shows in every detail.

The atmosphere is something special, elegant without being stuffy, and steeped in history while still feeling comfortable and inviting. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to linger just a little longer.

Location-wise, it’s perfect. Tucked right next to York Minster, you’re within walking distance of everything. Whether it’s a stroll along the city walls, a bite at a local pub, or exploring the Shambles, it’s all just steps away.

Highly recommend Gray’s Court, it’s the kind of stay that makes a trip memorable.

This hotel had so much charm, with its unique and quaint rooms. The outdoor garden is absolutely beautiful and you can even get up onto the old wall from the back of the property. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. It was a little stuffy in our room when we got there, but that was nothing an open window and fan couldn't fix. I would 100% stay here if I were ever to visit York again.

Wonderful location nestled next to the Minster and with its own access to the city wall. A small intimate hotel with excellent staff. Fabulous couple of days.

Wonderful location, gorgeous garden, super friendly staff, good breakfast, large bathroom with tub, 2 sinks, good shower, slippers, bathrobes, and good amenities. Room was on the smaller side but the two lounge chairs were comfortable and positioned well. Main criticism was having to haul our suitcases up multiple flights of stairs.

This is a wonderful gem of a hotel. Easily the best I have ever stayed in. The staff are exceptional, the rooms and garden just gorgeous. Will certainly be coming back and intend to try the evening meal next time. Much recommended!

Exquisite in every way. Staff were so friendly and accommodating- exactly what you are looking for in a boutique hotel. The decor was brilliant and the garden ambiance was amazing! Rooms were hot but comfortable in every other way.

Stayed here for a weekend in June 2024. We didnt realise at first how close in proximity it was to all the major tourist areas we wanted to explore - so this hotel is a must book if you want to do things like explore York Minister, see the art gallery, or even just wander along the Shambles.

The staff are extremely welcoming and friendly - being a boutique hotel they offer the sort of greeting that many chain hotels dont - its next level customer service with a hint of posh.

I was however, a bit concerned by their room facilities. The bed area in our room seemed a bit squashed together - two twin beds with other bits and pieces of furniture that had water bottles on one and a coffee machine crammed onto the other. While these are nice touches I just felt maybe something else could have been done.
The wardrobe at the end of the hall with robes/slippers and ironing board/iron was nice and tucked away - obviously had to be done because theres no other space for a wardrobe.
The bathroom was nicely decorated and lovely to see posh toiletries - unfortunately this was let down by the shower which pumped out hot water to such a degree I felt I might leave with third degree burns even after much faffing with the dial.

Garden area really peaceful and lovely, nice place to escape with a drink (if you dont mind a fair few steps to get to it). However you wont be able to enjoy any rum here as the inhouse bar doesnt stock it!
