York is one of our favourite northern getaways. And our home in this noble city is just a 10-minute walk from York Minster (the most uttered word on sight of which is ‘wow’).
No. 1 York by GuestHouse is a Grade II Listed Regency townhouse of stately proportions and head-turningly good looks. It has huge, dreamy sash windows, higher-than-high ceilings, a sweeping central staircase, and ivy around the door. Its grand-but-friendly face is full of charm, and inside you’ll find pantries stocked full of treats for the taking, great restaurant food throughout the day, delicious drinks from the bar, a spa centred on bespoke therapies, and a straight-from-the-heart welcome.
It's highest rated York hotel according to Condé Nast Traveller and we're 'No. 1' on TripAdvisor too!
Our 38 lovable bedrooms, including three standout suites, are dotted around the building’s three floors. Each one has its quirks courtesy of the building’s heritage detailing and our interior designer’s wonder-inspiring style.
Explore our neighbour Pearly Cow and try the best produce from land and sea cooked over fire or served over ice. Enjoy our decadent take on the English institution that is the afternoon tea. And don't forget to head to The Bar at No.1 to find the most drinkable deliciousness served all day to regulars and guests.
Our spa sits down in the arches of our cellar in our York hotel. It’s a cocooning world of bespoke wellbeing experiences. There are five treatment rooms, including a room for two. And a seriously soothing space for post-treatment relaxation.

York’s abundance of incredible parks makes it a perfect dog-holiday destination. And if you’d like a luxurious lie-in when your loyal pal needs a stroll, we have trusted local walkers on hand.
There's a Crosley Record player in every one of our rooms along with a selection of records too, so you can listen to your favourite tunes whilst relaxing in the bath or getting ready for a night on the town. You'll also have access to a larger selection of records to browse during your stay in our vinyl library situated in the lobby.
Let us meet you from your train and whisk your bags back to the hotel, in our cargo bike, so you can explore the beauty of York unhindered from the off. We’ll swap your luggage for a map of the city and an umbrella (if it’s one of those days). Get in touch to request your luggage pick up.
