Jorvik House
Positives - Good location for York; great showers and comfortable bed. Negatives - only breakfast option is continental breakfast served in room, though room facilities to do this minimal. No communal space for a drink etc other than a small unwelcoming area between the front door and the reception ...

An excellent array of selections. Staff were very quick and efficient in clearing tables at busy times. This was our 5th visit to this hotel. We keep coming back. That's the best recommendation i can give.
