I booked the hotel based purely on the reviews, and we weren't disappointed. Ascot House is a traditional hotel, based in a large, beautiful old house on the outskirts of York. The huge front doors, elegant wooden staircase and stained glass windows add to this place's charm, and the staff are welcoming and incredibly helpful. We stayed in a double room, and were treated to a four-poster bed which was very comfortable. The room was a good size, with lots of natural light, a modern en-suite shower room, wifi, TV and tea/coffee making facilities. Breakfast is served between 8-9:30am each day in a room at the back of the hotel and is a real treat. There's a great selection of fruits, yoghurts, cereals, pastries, ham, cheese and juices, then one of the finest cooked breakfasts we've had in a long time. And if you don't fancy a full English, you can pick and choose what you want (one morning, the Mrs just had scrambled eggs and mushrooms on toast). The hotel is conveniently located about 15 mins walk from the centre of York, and there's a small Coop opposite the hotel if you fancy picking up some snacks etc. This is lovely place to stay, with little personal touches everywhere that you simply don't get in modern hotels these days where you check in to a machine.
