This is quite possibly one of of my favourite hotels we have stayed at in the uk, the staff are welcoming and friendly, the food exceptional and the room, which was one of the rooms in the annexe was spacious and really clean. Will definitely be making another trip here.

Reginald, 1-night trip

Location was perfect. Jorvik center, the dungeons, the shambles were all within 15 minute walking radius. Breakfast was a decent buffet. Good swimming pool and facilities.
Samuel, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We loved our 2 rooms here. Beds were super comfortable, amenities were fantastic, food was tasty, we liked the history and decor, & we had great rooms with garden views. It was also nice to say someplace right next to the train station (especially since we brought my senior parents) and have the option of leaving luggage and exploring the city before check in / not taking your luggage all over town. For those driving, the car park / parking lot seem to be large enough to accommodate many visitors.

VICKI, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Very good location right next door to the station. Communal rooms very pleasant and relaxing. Although we did have a standard room the bathroom was rather small considering the price charged.
Robert, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

This hotel has declined in quality recently particularly the breakfast service
Martin, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Very convenient for both town and station. Clean room, comfortable bed.
Katie, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Had a nice room but really really noisy. Also the chair in the room was really stained and dirt
martin, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Beautiful original Victorian hotel, bed rooms were well equipped, clean and modern facilities. My only criticism would be they were rather bland & a statement wallpaper as a feature wall or in the panelled areas would have lifted them to a different level!
Anne, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Fabulous building. Room was small but clean. No dresser for hair or make up but overall would recommend and stay again.
Kathryn, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Lovely hotel with friendly staff
Elise, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The property had an elegance about it that made it very charming. Everything has been kept up really well. The facilities in the room were excellent. The hotel is literally steps away from both the train and bus stations that made it ideal for our travel. The most outstanding thing about the Milner was its staff. They were extremely kind and helpful. They went out of their way to help us.
