The best thing about this apartment was the location, just 6 minutes walk from York centre and the secure underground parking.
We had issues with the apartment, cleanliness (shower dirty, bin full of rubbish from previous occupant) 2nd bedroom, (small wardrobe shelf and rail fell down); these issues were put right by the letting agent which was good hence the high customer service. The bedrooms and beds are small and we (4 people) found the beds (both rooms) uncomfortable. The sofa was also not comfortable. To sum up, the apartment is in my opinion not luxury, its tired and in need of some maintenance.



Great accommodation!

Had a wonderful stay at York's Boutique, the apartment was pristine, quite modern and comfortable. had all the necessary amenities, very close to the town centre, could walk anytime you want, have lots of shops but a bit secluded as well, excellent property, would very much recommend. parking was comfortable, a bit tight of you have 4x4, apart from that, had a great time, lovely stay in a lovely city.



Lovely apartment in a great location.

The booking process was simple, key pick up and access instructions were clear and concise. The apartment is very well appointed with everything you would expect for a pleasant stay. The apartment has 1 parking space only, Peel Street parking is close by and is very reasonably priced £13.25 a day. The location is fantastic with excellent restaurants, pubs, bars and the city centre very close also. I would highly recommend this location and apartment.



LOVELY STAY AGAIN

Our second stay . Lovely location , clean everything you need.
Our only problem was we were two couples so two sets of keys would have been very useful . Also we couldn’t get the wi-fi to work we did ring the number we were given but nobody called us back . As we were at York for the racing Wi-Fi would have been good .
Only little issues we will definitely book again . Thank you

Had another fantastic stay at this apartment, was surprised to see it has all been done up to a beautiful standard as it was just as beautiful before, excellent location just a few mins walk into the centre to some wonderful shops, bars etc, the accommodation has everything you need for a perfect stay, secure parking space, gated entrances & a great little balcony for your morning cuppa! I don't think I would stay anywhere else in future trips to York, the only suggestion I could make would be another fob for gate & main door as 1 between 4 of us meant if 1 person wants to head back the others would have to go back to get them in but its just a suggestion not a negative, overall it's been another perfect & comfortable stay here

Booked this apartment online via Boutique Lets. Firstly, the instructions for self checkin seemed a bit involved but I followed the instructions and photos and found the keys without problem. There is somewhere to leave the car by the gates until you have the keys. The apartment is just as it looks on the website. It's beautiful, spotlessly clean and comfortable. The location is fantastic, so close to the city centre. My only suggestion would be a second set of keys. We were two couples and because you can't access the entrance to the complex or apartment without the keys and blipper for the gates you have to make sure you arrive back together if you're out seperately. Small thing, but would be handy. I would highly recommend this accomodation and would go back there again.

A very clean, spacious, comfortable apartment with an excellent location 5 minutes from the town centre. It was located in a secure gated location with secure parking, which is an added bonus in the centre of York.

Very well equipped with everything you would need for a self catering holiday including a washing machine and dryer.

Only issues we had was no hot water on the morning of our last day and the water drains very slowly from the shower and sink in the en-suite bathroom.

Really enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to recommend as a lovely place to stay for a visit to York.

Would definitely book again in the future.

Dave

Arrived Sat for a quick weekend break. Ideal location and quick walk into main shopping area. Fab apartment, clean, well equipped kitchen (didn’t use half the facilities but could easily have spent a week there and cooked if need be). Great balcony area and large lounge.

Only slight negative was the bed/mattress in the main bedroom was quite hard and uncomfortable - needs a softer mattress but would definitely stay again as it was lovely.



Great stay for the races!

My son and his 2 mates stayed here for 2 nights as they had booked to go to the races. They said it was very clean & in a great location & only 20 minutes walk from the station. They didn't use the parking but I know how hard it is to find parking in the centre of York so that was an added bonus to the property.

Excellent apartment and location.
Only one small issue, 3 of us were staying in the apartment and only having one set of keys made it very difficult, especially on an evening!

Had a lovely 2 night stay here. First impressions of the building are really good, safe secure gated apartment block with a private car park etc. Once in the apartment it was immaculate throughout, there are 2 lovely bedrooms and 2 bathrooms which is great. Cosy sitting area and the sofa bed was surprisingly comfortable! Everything you could need to hand in the kitchen area. And a lovely little balcony to sit out on!!
Location was great too, you literally walk for w few minutes and your bang in the centre! Would recommend!

In need of somewhere to stay in York for five weeks, we were recommended to York Boutique Lets by a local estate agent. After viewing a selection of properties online, we decided on a two bedroom apartment in Dixon’s Yard, a small gated development in the centre of York. In terms of location, it was easy to get to and sits at the bottom of Fossgate, a short walk away from the city centre and all the sights of York.

The apartment was a great size for the two of us, and ideal for a group of four too. A comfortable living and dining area, a spacious and reasonably well equipped kitchen, excellent bathroom and en-suite shower (very powerful and plenty of hot water) and a wonderful balcony for the warm April days we had. The space for one car was fine for our Mini, perhaps tight for an SUV, but given two were parked in spaces opposite, maybe not.

Overall, a perfect location for a visit to York. We can certainly recommend the Brew York bar next door (no noise) and the coffee and cinnamon and raisin bagel at the Perky Peacock beneath Lendal Bridge. Thank you York Boutique Lets

We will definitely be returning here! The location is excellent and the customer service could not be better. I rang 2 or 3 times with different questions which were answered quickly and confidently. The apartment itself was absolutely lovely. It was huge! Thankyou!



unfortunately not luxury in our opinion

The apartment is in an excellent spot we have stayed in other flats within the same complex before, when we arrived unfortunately we had trouble collecting the keys and working out which key safe it was as there are quite a few in the same place and the picture they send you has a name dixons yard on it but that name is missing ,
Then when we got in the apartment there were no tea towels or hand towels or bath matts which wasn't helpful,
the fridge wasn't getting to temperature we had to throw away some milk and my wife's insulin wasn't cold which is really not good
the lights above both the mirrors in the both bathrooms were not working might not great while trying to shave there was also a fault with a spotlight above one of them, the ensuite shower was not super clean mostly scale build up I think some grout was falling off the front door lock needs a little oil,
watch out for the beds there wooden and larger than the mattresses so its very easy to catch your feet on them as there is not a lot of room round the beds. the whole place needs a little love and attention and redecorating
I may be being a little picky but its called a luxurious apartment and im afraid its just not in its current state
