Lovely stay right in the centre of beautiful York.
Staff were extremely helpful, especially the receptionist and the young man(supervisor)in the dining room at breakfast, exceptional. Please let the staff know how good the all are. Hot cooked breakfast, plenty choice of cereals, fruit juice, tea/coffee, toast etc.
Downside were the outside rooms, we were in 75, right at the back of the car park, facing the empty beer kegs, felt it was shoved out of the way, considering this was almost £500 for 3 nights, not up to Hilton standards, didn’t know until we got there we would not be staying in the main building. bath was extremely curved and hard to stand in for a shower - we felt it could be quite dangerous to get in and out of. Also pink mould at the bottom of the shower screen doors, needs cleaned thoroughly. First night toilet roll holder fell off the wall, tiny screw missing to keep it on, toilet roll cheap and nasty. Other issue we had, first night it was freezing in there, had to ask for heater as the heater in room didn’t work. Secondly, black mould right around the front door area, looked liked water had got in at some point and not been sealed around and cleaned. Rest of the room was spotless. This is surely basic maintenance and a job for a handyman. Not up to the same standards as 2 other Double Tree by Hilton. Needs better maintenance.
