Can't beat the location which was excellent. Room was comfortable, but was downstairs, so felt a bit like a basement room. But overall a good price for a great location.

Very comfortable and great location
Perfect location in the heart of York. Need to have your eyes peeled to find it down the passageway off the main road. Room, large, quiet and comfortable. Staff all lovely. Only negative was very small bathroom, smallest in the hotel apparently so not ideal for someone over 6 foot.

Keep away from room 1
Enjoyed York , disappointed in our room which was in the basement cellar (memories of Liverpool cavern club). No views at all had to have the lights on all the time we were there .. the staff were really nice and friendly.

Service was incredibly friendly and warm. A lovely welcome to York! The room was in the basement so pretty dark. And while the facilities and cleanliness were good, it all looked fairly shabby.

OK but needs a bit of TLC
Friendly welcome. Room on 2nd floor up narrow windy stairs. OK for us but there’s no lift. Room clean but small and basic with damp on outside facing wall. Woodwork paint peeling. Bathroom modern, clean, well stocked. Great central location

Beautiful hotel. Comfortable with great service in a perfect location. The only inconvenience was the lack of hot water. The shower was barely warm which made our stay difficult

Judges court hotel
Stayed in judges court hotel for 2 days , we was in room 6 with the roll top bath , room was lovely could not fault and the reception staff were welcoming . Had everything we needed also close by to the shops . Me and my partner were doing our paranormal investigations in our room and safe to say quite a few spirits came through especially the little boy named William who sits on the chair in the reception 👻. Haven’t been to York since I was a child and now returning 22 years later it’s fun knowing the history of York and it’s very interesting. We would highly recommend this hotel it’s was a great experience.
