Novotel York Centre Hotel 4 stars

My stay at Novotel York was very nice, especially given all of the restrictions in place. The staff were all very helpful and nice to talk to, and room service was very quick. The location of the hotel was also really good for being able to go on walks around the city center at night even though my trip was for work.

Was Satisfactory. The twin beds were far too narrow and the toilet wasn't in the main bathroom ?

My stay was fine although slightly disappointing in that the menu for evening meals never offered anything particularly healthy. There were no vegetables available on the three occasions I asked for them instead of chips and no potatoes. I feel in this day and age with healthy eating a priority there should at least be this option on the menu. The staff were very friendly. The room could have done with a wee freshen up but in the whole was fine.

Every member of staff was very friendly & nothing was too much a bother. Whilst being C19 safe, all staff were sensitive in their approach in all interactions. Full marks for all staff at York Novotel Manager Pete, Portuguese waiter & other restaurant staff all great. Used their names, but I have forgotten now. Will be back.. on jolly.. not work. "och aye the noo" :) M.

Excellent attention to safety and comfort from all staff, an enjoyable stay in these uncertain times and restrictions.

First time stay at the York Novotel and first time travelling for over a year. The hotel was great. Check in was easy (well apart from the usual 'I can't hear what you are saying through the mask' issue, which we laughed about). I got an upgrade to a better room and my usual drinks voucher. The safety protocols in place were very clear and there was plenty of sanitisation points. The room itself was spotless. I had great nights sleep. I got my automated check out e-mail which was great as I had a very early start. All in all a very pleasant and safe experience. I can't wait for my next trip.

Very good experience, friendly and helpful staff

Very helpful staff, with great location near the historic city of York. Amazing view towards the lake and the terrace is breath taking.

The staff (reception, bar, all) were extremely accommodating and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Room was pleasant enough but air conditioning was noisy all night

Staff were great... the service was great...could have done with a much bigger room but it was all fine...been before many times and will come back again! Thank you!

Everything with the room and service was spot on, the only flaw as I would have is that we stayed in the junior suite which was a great room, however, there was no actual dressing table with a mirror in front of it, we had to use a bedside table with a mirror near it.the only other issue may it be a small one was as we was with children the tv did not even have cbeebies or a children’s based channel to watch on both the huge tv’s. otherwise all was well.

I stayed at Novotel York Centre for 3 nights immediately before the November lockdown. I couldn't have wished for a more pleasant stay. The hotel is conveniently located, being only a short drive into York from the surrounding road network (with its own open air and spacious car park) and a 10 minute walk from the old city centre. The staff were remarkably friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Particular mention should go to the young lady on check in and the young lady serving breakfasts. The room was extremely comfortable and the bathroom very well appointed. Both were faultlessly clean. Food was delicious and generous helpings too. It's quiet there at night, so you get a good night's sleep. Excellent wi-fi as well.

All we needed was a worry-free break, and that is exactly what we got. With a one year-old on our hands we have been looking for a night away for a while. The Novotel team made us feel welcome and safe during the whole stay! Easy direct booking, very welcome check-in, and at check-out you just need to leave the keys in a box. Must say that we actually enjoyed some of the new safety measures in place. We had the pool just for the three of us (I think only two rooms are allowed at the same time). Communication with reception or the restaurant is made through WhatsApp! I hope they keep this, it was so easy!!! Dinner in the restaurant was lovely. I would recommend the mushroom soup and the lovely desserts. We stayed in a Junior Suite. These rooms are both romantic and family friendly! Also, you have a TV on the bed side and another in the living room side :) Bathroom is huge, with both shower and bath, and lots of mirrors. Can’t wait to go back.

Lovely room size and decor but cheap quilt and shabby towels let it down shower is a good foot of the ground and was difficult to get out when wet pool a nice touch but needs a good clean , tide marks all around staff friendly and welcoming
