Across recent reviews, St Marys Guest House is consistently praised for its warm, friendly staff, plentiful cooked-to-order breakfasts, and a quiet, walkable location near the river, York's sights, and the train station.
Rooms are generally clean and comfortable, though some are compact and a few note dated decor or dim lighting. Some note occasional train noise and sporadic hot water, water-pressure, or heating quirks, and upper floors are reached via narrow stairs with no lift. Parking is available outside for a fee, and dietary needs, including gluten-free, are accommodated. A friendly, good-value base for exploring York on foot.

Very nice people here! It is an old guesthouse so the fact I was on the 3rd was ok, the stairs were solid but narrow so if I had more luggage than a small backpack it would have been hard. No issues with the other floors though. So to restate floor 3, room 10 quaint room for person with very little luggage.

Steps away from the idyllic River Ouse, this quaint and quiet B&B will not disappoint. Cleanliness in both private and public areas is top notch. Staff work cheerfully under the friendly manager dubbed the Queen Bee. Breakfast includes the traditional Those who have trouble with stairs should book the ground floor, those who can manage stairs be prepared for the narrow staircases and light sensors. They only come on only when you’re directly in the range of detection.

Rooms were very clean and adequate. Rooms warm during a cold January stay. Cooked breakfast was great. Hostess Caroline was a delight. Flat 10 minute walk to city gate (see photo). So no need to park closer unless you have a walking disability. Very desirable location. The only thing that would have made it better was to let customers know in advance that parking is £12.50 @ night. No nearby free parking in sight. Don’t hesitate to stay here.

Friendly and helpful staff. We had a small problem with heat during the Oct 1st hearing cutover (off during the summer into fall temperatures). Good communication of the problem down to staff and resolution. Close to the river. Short walk to Minster and downtown. No elevator is you need one. Very enjoyable place. Nice breakfast.

Everything is brilliant about St. Mary's Guest House in York! Location is perfect - just 10 min stroll along the river front into the centre. Beds very comfy. Breakfast pentiful, cooked to order and delicious. Manager, Caroline, is wonderful. Parking inexpensive and easy. We would highly recommend this for a city break.

The Guesthouse is located in a quiet street which is just across the street from the railway line to Scarborough. There are only a couple of trains an hour, so you don't really notice them and they didn't disturb our sleep. Breakfast is excellent and the staff are friendly and helpful. The menu has a good range of food on it and the portions are generous. Security is also good as the guesthouse has electronic locks on both the outer and inner doors which are sprung. It is located 5-7 minutes walk from York railway station. directly across a foot/cycle bridge which can be accessed directly from the station car park. The downside is the room as the bathroom was small with a very cramped sitting position on the WC. I am 6ft, not overweight but had to sit sideways. there were plenty of draws to put clothes like T-shirts and underwear in but there was an open clothes hanger with shelves, rather than a decent wardrobe. These open shelves are rubbish as clothes, or other items can fall of them very easily. The bed was in the style of an old fashioned bedstead. which, although quaint and comfortable to sleep on, was a bit short for anyone who is 6ft or taller. The room was warm but the timer seemed strange. as it went off at the time you might want it on, i.e. when you came in from dinner. The Guesthouse is in a great location for all the city's attractions but heating and hot water availability may need looking at as we had a cold shower on our last night.

We only stayed for 2 days over the Bank Holiday but it was a perfect break away. The ladies who served breakfast,which was amazin, full English was the husbands choice and he is quite picky but loved it, I opted for yogurt and fruit and eggs with toast,all perfectly done. Rooms are very clean and comfortable and cleaned daily without asking and the staff are so welcoming and no issue is a bother for them.will definitely be returning and a very reasonable price for York on a Bank Holiday weekend. We were so pleased with our stay we gave the ladies chocolates as a thank you when we left 💕 xxx

Ideally situated close to the river which made for a very pleasant walk alongside the river into the City just 5 minutes away. Room was clean and tidy. A lovely 3 night stay. My only criticism is that the wi-fi was very hit and miss, frustratingly dropping out very often.

Nice, clean guest house, very close walk from the station. Enjoyed the breakfast, and the staff were welcoming. Only a couple of issues. First, the lighting is too gloomy. A few more lumens would have made the room appear brighter. Second, my room was at the front of the house, and I was awakened at 3am by noisy works going on at the railway opposite. To be fair, the weather was really warm and I had left the windows opened. When i shut them, the double glazing helped suppress the noise.

Everything is brilliant about St. Mary's Guest House in York! Location is perfect - just 10 min stroll along the river front into the centre. Beds very comfy. Breakfast pentiful, cooked to order and delicious. Manager, Caroline, is wonderful. Parking inexpensive and easy. We would highly recommend this for a city break.

Breakfast is widely praised for quality, cooked-to-order dishes, and generous portions, with good variety. Gluten-free options are available and generally well handled, though a rare guest found breakfast underwhelming.

A fabulous place to stay within walking distance of everywhere you would want to visit in York. A very comfy room and one of the best cooked breakfasts you’ll find anywhere. We’ll definitely stay again on our next visit.

The staff were very welcoming , the guest house was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast was very good with a gluten free option,including the sausages and the bread. We were able to leave our cases in reception after we checked out in the morning, until we wanted to travel in the afternoon. Would stay there again if we return to the area

Easy self-check in after hours. Friendly, helpful staff. Clean and inviting property with bright and spacious room. Excellent breakfast. Water pressure in shower was not great. Easy walking distance to train station and to town centre. Quiet location, even with rail tracks across the road.

St. Mary’s Guest House was everything we needed for our 5-night stay in York. My friend and I stayed in a twin room, which was clean and perfectly comfortable, albeit nothing fancy. Breakfast was great and the staff were just lovely. We enjoyed the short walk each morning and evening to and from the station or city centre.
