No. 1 York by GuestHouse

No.1 York by GuestHouse is an upscale, 4-star boutique hotel located in York’s peaceful Clifton district, just a short walk from York Minster. Occupying a beautifully preserved Grade II listed Regency townhouse built in 1829, this charming property seamlessly blends historic British grandeur with quirky, contemporary design elements. Our hotel features 38 uniquely styled bedrooms, including expansive suites equipped with four-poster beds, locally sourced antiques, and record players. For relaxation, guests can descend into The Cellar Spa, situated in the building's historic, vaulted wartime air-raid shelter, which offers eco-friendly therapies and organic treatment rooms. Culinary experiences center around Pearly Cow, the hotel's signature restaurant specializing in premium fire-cooked steaks and fresh coastal seafood. Guests can also enjoy artisan coffees, classic cocktails, and afternoon tea in the cozy Rhubarb Bar—complete with a playful miniature steam train circling the bar tracks—or the sunlit Marmalade Lounge. With four versatile event spaces accommodating everything from business meetings to intimate weddings, the hotel serves as an elegant social hub. Complete with free Wi-Fi, an on-site private car park, and a welcoming dog-friendly policy, it delivers a deeply characterful and luxurious Yorkshire getaway.
