You're in just the right place to discover the luxury rooms at No. 1 York. We have a selection of room types to choose from - from snug and cosy to spacious and grand. Many come with leafy views, some with fireplaces, and the two Bootham Suites still echo their past lives as a drawing room and a library.
Every room is full of character, with locally sourced antiques, art and curios that tell York’s story in playful, charming ways. You'll also find our signature touches - a turntable for playing vinyls (with more to borrow downstairs), and a tea-and-coffee kit hidden inside a whimsical Doll’s House.
And of course, it wouldn't be a GuestHouse without a Pantry full of complimentary treats for the taking, whenever takes your fancy. Our pantry in York is centrally located on the first floor.
That no two bedrooms are the same is a fact we really like. But there are a few good things in common they all share.
Sealy mattress dressed in a savoy luxury hotel topper and 300-thread-count Egyptian cotton linen / The right to raid our Pantry packed full of treats / WiFi / Nespresso kit, kettle, tea & coffee / Wildsmith shampoo, conditioner & body wash / Hairdryer / Turntable (choose your records from the selection in the vinyl library) / Flat screen TV with freeview and chromecast.
Sleeps two | 13 sq m approx | King
These are our smallest rooms - cosy and charming. Each features a comfortable queen-size bed. These are not for you if you are more than two, as there isn’t space for cots or dogs.
Maximum occupancy is 2
Sleeps two | 17 sq m approx | Super King
A step up in size, these are our standard rooms. But each one is different in its design and view as they are found all around the hotel. So, there’s nothing standard about them.
Maximum occupancy is 2
Sleeps two | 20 sq m approx | Twin-Bed or Super King
These rooms are a little bigger than our guest rooms, with a little more space. They have a spot for the dog, too.
Maximum occupancy up to 2 adults | 1 infant
27 sq m approx | Super King | Family-Friendly
For those who like a roomier situation, these lovely rooms leave plenty of space for kids’ and dogs’ bedding after the super-king-size bed or two decent-sized single beds.
Maximum occupancy up to 2 adults | 1 child | 1 infant

@margoinmargate’s Summer Residency at No. 42 Margate by @guesthousehotels
Very excited to announce our partnership which brings 12 beautiful artworks by Margo to the hotel. You’ll find them from the ground floor leading all the way up to The Rooftop Bar
To celebrate, we’ve created a Kiss Me in Margate cocktail too. Sip a glass and enjoy 10% off all prints by Margo
And, if you see a piece you particularly like from the collection, turn left out of the hotel and you’ll find Margo’s gallery just a few doors down and can arrange bringing one home!
The Margate Coast is full of coastal culture. Here’s why we think it’s a pretty special place...

Meet @tessa__layzelle, the creative behind the hand-sewn tapestries in some of our newly refurbished Guest and Bigger Guest Rooms at No. 15 Bath.
Tessa is a designer/maker specialising in ‘practical paintings’ and her quilts sit in the crossover between artwork and homeware. For our in-room pieces, she nods to mysticism found throughout the city and the sense of the ethereal is further expressed through handmade celestial-themed bedside lampshades and delicate glass-domed pendants
Stay with us in Bath to see the beautiful pieces in person
