Very much enjoyed our stay in the King’s Tower. Picture and descriptions are accurate. Nice welcome package. Within easy walking distance to attractions, restaurants and grocery stores. Several car parks nearby. Stays York staff was easy to communicate with and most helpful. Apartment is on 2nd floor and no lift, which could be a consideration if mobility challenged. Would stay again and definitely recommend.

Pleasantly surprised!
A really lovely apartment in a beautiful location. Well equipped with lovely finishes!
Had a small issue on check in but the service was excellent and rectified straight away.
My only observation would be that the sofa bed in the living room, I wouldn’t really class as a bed. It’s a futon and unfortunately very uncomfortable. Otherwise, an amazing stay!
