Second time staying in Tower House. Lovely spacious room (French Rococos) individually styled. Tony & Diana are subtle hosts only being seen at breakfast but always about if you do need anything. Breakfast is fresh and cooked to perfection. Well located with a short walk in to the city of York. Parking available at front of house but tight. Highly recommended

Fabulous! Tony & Diana - who run the property - were delightful and incredibly helpful. Rooms are beautifully decorated and, for once, are the same size in real life as they are in the publicity photos! Very handy location: our car remained in the parking area right in front of the hotel for the duration of our stay and we walked into town every day. Breakfast is included. There is a great choice and it is all cooked to perfection. Would recommend without the slightest hesitation.

Fabulous hosts Tony and Diana made us feel very welcome. Loved Room 2, Samurai chosen for the sunken bath and furnishings. Appreciated the little touches like fresh milk and a small bar of Kit kat with 2 soft drinks complementary in the mini fridge. Everything was spotless and we also enjoyed our breakfasts. Would happily stay there again.

Short mid-week stay to take in the city of York and surrounding areas. The guest house was immaculate and the room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The guest house was well positioned within one mile walking distance into the city centre. There are a variety of breakfasts on offer, but the full English breakfast was superb. Ordering of breakfasts and mealtimes, temperature control of room and other facilities were all available through the Tower Guest House app.

I had a small accident and broke my foot, the hosts were so helpful and really went out of their way. Everything I needed was there and it was easily accessible to the city center. I cant wait to return. Top boutique hotel I've ever stayed at. I can't say enough wonderful things about this place. I'm so glad I booked here!

I booked the stay as part of a surprise for my husband's birthday, and he was very impressed and absolutely raved about it. He could not fault a single thing about our stay. Starting with the location, it was not far to walk to York centre (around 20 minutes or so). We stayed in the Samurai suite. The theming of the room was fantastic, right down to the sunken bath. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and it was evident that the owners had not scrimped on quality of the furnishings or bedding. We had a very warm welcome from our hosts, and were greeted each morning at breakfast equally warmly and by name. The selection at breakfast was fantastic, even down to the homemade granola which was so tasty, I bought a bag to bring home with me. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his cooked breakfast which could be personalised when ordering the night before and ready for a time of our choosing. The whole stay was faultless from start to finish.

I booked the stay as part of a surprise for my husband's birthday, and he was very impressed and absolutely raved about it. He could not fault a single thing about our stay. Starting with the location, it was not far to walk to York centre (around 20 minutes or so). We stayed in the Samurai suite. The theming of the room was fantastic, right down to the sunken bath. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and it was evident that the owners had not scrimped on quality of the furnishings or bedding. We had a very warm welcome from our hosts, and were greeted each morning at breakfast equally warmly and by name. The selection at breakfast was fantastic, even down to the homemade granola which was so tasty, I bought a bag to bring home with me. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his cooked breakfast which could be personalised when ordering the night before and ready for a time of our choosing. The whole stay was faultless from start to finish.

The owners were so kind and welcoming! Breakfast is delicious and the Christmas decorations were beautiful. Easy to walk into downtown and anything we wanted to do.

Short mid-week stay to take in the city of York and surrounding areas. The guest house was immaculate and the room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The guest house was well positioned within one mile walking distance into the city centre. There are a variety of breakfasts on offer, but the full English breakfast was superb. Ordering of breakfasts and mealtimes, temperature control of room and other facilities were all available through the Tower Guest House app.

Great 2 night stay, slight issue with Expedia which Tony sorted out for us swiftly, great service and a fantastic room, luxurious pillows and bedding/mattress so slept so well and didn’t hear any outside noise. The room has loads of technology if you want to use it. The aircon was a great extra and was lovely and quiet.The breakfast was really good, loads of choice and quality food. I recommend this to anyone staying in York. Having stayed in hundreds of hotels and B&Bs through my work I can honestly say this is one of the Best ! A real credit to the owners. Thank you Martyn and Fina :)

We had a lovely stay in the Tower Guest House. The room was very clean and well appointed. Our hosts, Diana and Tony, were very gracious and helpful with sharing dining options and sights to see. It was also very convenient to order our breakfast using their app and the food came out hot and delicious. I very highly recommend staying at the Tower Guest House. We plan to return on our next holiday to York.

The location is really good. Its just a short walk into york. Free parking was a bonus. The room itself was nice but the pictures advertised on Expedia were definitely a false representation of the actual room. I chose the room as it stated it had a four poster bed and a bath with jets. Image my disappointment when i walked in and found a normal bed and a walk in shower with no bath in sight. I spoke with the owner who seemed unaware the rooms details had not been updated. He offered me a full refund so i could look for alternative accommodation (on a bank Holiday weekend) or a slight discount. Obviously after travelling i wasn't about to start looking for accommodation when i had already spent quite a bit of time selecting what i felt was the perfect place. Everyone was very nice but i paid a lot of money for something i didn't actually get. Also it states the rooms have soundproofing. This is most definitely not the case. The walls are thin and you can hear everything that is going on outside your room. Overall it is a nice place just a very expensive and disappointing experience

We arrived around 11:00 am, even though it was too early for check in. The owner allowed us to go ahead and park (for free) and he took our luggage up. We made the walk to town in 10 minutes. When we returned that evening, our luggage was in our room and the snacks and wine we brought were in the fridge. The room was lovely and comfortable. The bathroom was extremely clean. Plenty of towels, pillows and blankets. Noise from the street was minimal. We will definitely stay again!!
