Tucked away inside the historic city walls, Middletons is a beautiful hotel in an historic building set within a pretty courtyard with its own gardens – a peaceful oasis while being minutes' away from Fairfax House and the Museum Gardens. We were offered a complimentary upgrade to the stylish Lady Anne room, featuring nice touches like a full-size bathtub and White Company toiletries. The breakfast was excellent, and we were spoiled for choice – trying different options on each morning of our three-day stay. Next time we're back in York, we'll be glad to stay at the Middleton's again.

Wonderful sized large room. Very comfortable large bed. Loved the solid wood wardrobes. The bathroom was large bath and shower. Hand cream and body wash device ne smell. The staff were so welcoming, helpful and extremely efficient. Breakfast was excellent quality and range of choices. Would definitely choose this hotel again. So handy to walk to the centre and the races. Car free for the weekend loved it.

The accommodation provided was significantly below the standard represented in the photographs displayed online and did not reflect the quality I reasonably expected based on the price I paid. The room and facilities differed materially from the images used to market the property, resulting in a disappointing and misleading experience.

The room was not the cleanest either with dust over the walls and lampshade.

The food at the bar was ok however I would not recommend to get the fish and chips as it was so salty that was not edible.

Following a discussion with the hotel manager, I was informed that this discrepancy arose because I made my reservation through a comparison website rather than booking directly with the hotel. I find this explanation unacceptable. Regardless of the booking channel used, the accommodation provided should correspond to the description and images presented at the time of booking. Customers should not receive an inferior room or experience simply because they booked through a third-party platform, particularly where this was neither disclosed nor made clear before payment.

The expectation created by the online listing formed an integral part of my decision to book and of the price I agreed to pay. Had I been aware that the room allocated would not match the advertised standard, I would have reconsidered my booking.

We had a very stressful check-in as the receptionist insisted I had made two separate bookings and that one of our rooms was only for one night, the other for two. I had my Expedia email for both rooms both for 2 nights.
We asked for quiet rooms so were given room next to the road, overlooking the carpark entrance and the bins!
My colleague was given a ground floor room with a window opening onto the street which made her feel uncomfortable. We went to discuss with reception and they insisted we were wrong and the room was not a street level. 3 times we had to repeat it and each time we were dismissed. On the 4th repeat the receptionist agreed and changed the room.
There is no lift and no offer of help with 3 flights of stairs. When I spoke to the duty manager about the lift he simply told me it says about the lack of lifts on the webpage.
I was in room 35. The room was a good size but the bathroom was small with no shelving for toiletries - I had to use the bedside table. The bathrobes were lovely.
Any complaints were met with highly defensive responses.
The breakfast team were lovely and very helpful. However the buffet selection was very un-inspiring though there was a good cooked breakfast menu.

Firstly what a prefect hotel for discovering York, only 5 minutes walk to town, the hotel is well maintained and the tapas menu and presentation is excellent, you would struggle to find standard higher to be honest! The breakfast is good and well presented, down point if picky, not consistent first day two rashers of bacon , second day one? Sausages didn’t seem over cooked,I should have said something, the room really nice and clean, was asked if I would like it refreshed while I was out,only find nothing had happened when I returned? Maybe they just forgot to tell housekeeping? Got to say as a seasoned traveller the hotel still out scores many at a similar price ..

Lovely hotel created from several historic buildings into a modern facility. Very pleasant reception and lounge area with bar. The rooms were clean and to a high standard, roomy and with a good shower room. There is a lot of interesting artwork throughout.
The staff were very welcoming and helpful.
We booked two rooms. Room servicing is only on request, we asked our rooms to be made up each day, sadly our friends room was not properly made up on arrival and servicing of the rooms was a bit hit and miss. We had asked for rooms in a quiet area and our request was honoured. Breakfast was excellent.
A minor gripe would be the number of emails received before the stay concerning pre-information on things like breakfast time and pre-booking in and pre-checkout.
The location is excellent for walking into central York and in a quiet area. Despite the minor issues with our rooms we would recommend the hotel as a good place to stay.

Great \"boutique\" hotel - and not super expensive - easy walk from the train station (and as an added bonus, close to the river and inside the city walls). Rooms were clean and very quiet. Had dinner and breakfast in the restaurant (and as a bit of an aficionado, perhaps the best fish and chips I have ever had). I had no idea York had so much to do - if you wanted to explore in depth, you could easily spend a week! Walking the walls alone, and taking it all in, could easily take a half day, and the Minster is worth at least a half day (and much longer if you want to soak it all in). Over 5+ rating for the hotel, the restaurant and the city itself, as well as the hotel's location. Will definitely stay here in future if the opportunity presents itself.

The staff were wonderful, after a dreadul experience with expedia for another booking that this getaway replaced, we talked of our experience and Phillipa kindly gave us a round of drinks on the house!

The property is beautiful and in a prime location, but still serene enough to feel off the beaten track (but rodiculously close to a city wall).

We were in the smallest room on offer, but the beds was still very comfortable and the room has a really neatly designed vanity table, which will be a dream for any individuals looking to do make up and straighten hair (complete with straightening plate!)

The breakfasts are exquisite, you will be sad to book without! The dinners were equally well received, I had a mushroom tagliatelle that could have easily fed two, whilst my partner really enjoyed his propper, rustic chips on his fish and chips.

Would highly recommend if looking to stay in York!

We stopped in room 52 at night after walking along the walk way to the room nearly tripped a few times on the step to the front door even though it was a small step very hard to see at night.
Room was very clean.
The heating in the room was on all night, the room was too hot to sleep.
Bar & reception staff excellent .
We thought the breakfast was very poor, it was advertised as a buffet breakfast and was a fixed breakfast so not what we were expecting, they missed the toast & mushrooms off my breakfast.
Coffee was warm , milk was very cold making the coffee even colder.
Breakfast was all hot.
Location was brilliant just around corner from all attractions.
We would recommend people to stop but just not eat there very over priced food .
Parking is cheap in comparison.
Over all good just expensive for what we got.
You did ask for a review.

Staff left the latch on the front of one of the beds that holds the twin beds together and my friend hurt her foot on it quite hard as it was sticking out. I had to remove it so it didnt happen again. No sanitary bags provided, housekeeping came while we were still in and checked every room to see if people were still in there. We also ran out of toilet roll really fast and there was no plug for bathroom shaver/toothbrush. I expected a lot more for a hotel of this price

Nice mid range hotel, but bathroom in need of an upgrade. Also beware if you are put in rooms in the listed building section, then the floors are not level and this can be quite disorienting.

Better communication on checkin around requesting room to be cleaned, came back after a long day to no water, no milk and room not refreshed. No lift so had to climb two flights of stairs (elderly mum and i'm pregnant!) then checkout they didnt mention you needed to put code in to release barrier. Very frustrating. the room had really bad condensation which means a lot of mould developing in wondows which we're breathing in. not great.

Nothing to write home about

This three-day stay in York was the end if a 10-day road trip. We loved York, shame about the hotel. The location was great but that was about the best we could say. Firstly they charged us £12.50 per day for the privilege of parking our car on their premises. Money for old rope as they say. And it was an example of seeming to get the worst room in the hotel for booking through Hotels.com. The room was too warm but they never solved that problem. Despite having booked what we thought was a bigger room - with a double sofa bed - the room was pokey and the bathroom - a corner cutout of the room - was really small. No plan to swing a cat - it would never have survived. Don’t want to beat a dead horse but this hotel, meant to be historic and something special, was not much to write home about.

Lovely hotel

Had a great overnight stay. We stayed in room 2, which was a comfort room. Was was very nicely decorated and the bed very comfortable. There was fresh milk provided in the fridge, and usual tea, coffee making facilities. The only slight downside to this room was the bathroom, even though it was lovelly, the shower cubicle, was small, and the toilet was crammed into quite a small gap inbetween the wall and shower. The breakfast was of very good . We had a complimentry drink as we were there to celebrate my husbands birthday. It was a lovely touch. Very close to the town centre, the grounds were kept beautiful.

Parking is marketed as available rather than included . It’s not included and may not be available. You only discover this once booked. it’s first come basis and £12.50 a day extra. A queen/king bed is just two beds pushed together in the family room. The bathroom was tired looking and the hot water was at scolding level for both kids and adults. The eye masks were needed , as the room was on the road and the curtains didn’t close properly and bright lights outside on 24/7. The kids pack was a nice touch and the little vip gown to wear as were the fridge items. Staff were friendly and it’s a great location. Didn’t use the restaurant or bar facilities so can’t comment.

We were in an older part which was nice overall but in need of some TLC in others. Quite a lot of dust on dado rails. As an executive room it was large with both a stand alone shower & roll top bath, but probably not worth paying the extra given the need for TCL/cleanliness, We arrived back at gone 3pm on first day & room hadn't been serviced & wasn't subsequently as we wanted to relax in our room. On the second day we arrived back gone 2pm & room was only just being serviced. Whilst towels in bathroom were replaced, milk in fridge wasn't replenished (luckily we had just enough), neither were the biscuits or Yorkshire tea bags (we had to make do with decaf).
On Sat night we decided to eat in the lounge bar but there was a large party of males (assume a stag party) who were getting louder & using bad language. Whilst it didn't make for a relaxing meal but didn't overly bother us as we ate & left, we felt that someone from the hotel should've have asked them to quieten down, especially as we were aware that there were several solo female guests (some probably late 60/early 70).
