A large Victorian town house just a short walk from York city centre. Great for family holidays & sightseeing trips to beautiful York.

This house is in a fantastic location. When you step out the door, the Minster's towers are right before you. It is a fine house and served us well.
The photographs in the website are cleverly taken and the sitting room is better in them - brighter, larger and more magnificent - than the real thing. The real thing is perfectly ok,.
The company chooses not to offer the opportunity to recycle. This is frustrating.
The attic room is good fun. Our teenage children enjoyed staying up there.
The kitchen is full of useful things.
The conservatory is a nice place to sit, though some of the furniture is a wee bit broken.
We liked it.

A great period house in a quiet street. York centre is a 5 min walk away so this is a great base to explore the city.

The house was warm welcoming with a lovely kitchen.

The only issues we had were that the stairs are remarkably steep, which seems to be a bit of an English thing. And we discovered one of the curtains in the lounge room was falling off its rail, which I would imagine they would have fixed by now, as I did let them know. The house is beautiful, and truly within walking distance from the centre of York for sightseeing purposes. Having a bathroom on the second and third floor’s was very handy although for my elderly mother to have to get up to the first floor, every time she needed the toilet was a bit of a pain.

Great location a few minutes walk from the city centre. Managed to get to grips with the Esse by reading & following instructions carefully. Could be tricky if you can't bend. It was lovely to have table & chairs outside for breakfast & dinner when weather allowed. May have been useful if leaves had been brushed up before our arrival as they blew into the house and stuck to our shoes. A small coffee table or tables in the lounge would be useful. Having parking space was a huge bonus.

We couldn't have asked for more. The property is perfectly situated just outside the city walls within a few minutes walk of all of York's main attractions. The parking permit was a huge bonus. Everything one could possibly want was available in the property: clean, attractively decorated, well maintained and with a charming courtyard garden. Perfect.

Lovely house a short walk from York Minster but on a quiet residential street with no through traffic. Weather was a bit cold when we were there but all of the house was lovely and warm. Plenty of hot water as well. We didn’t cook so never used the aga but there was lots of kitchen equipment if we had wanted to. The coffee machine is a Nespresso. The small conservatory was our favourite place to sit - comfortable and bright. Stays York were efficient and pleasant and called the day before our arrival to see if we needed anything. Would stay again at St John’s Crescent and would book with Stays York in the future.

The house is well located for a city break, 5mins zigzagging through some back lanes and you’re within the inner city walls via monk gate. Procedures are swift and self explanatory. The property itself has seen many generations of guests which is mainly felt in the bed and reception rooms. Kitchen and bath are best for cleanliness. The cleaners know their job. There is a black throw on the double bed that might need to be exchanged or properly cleaned as it does not smell good anymore. Upon arrival the house was cold which was not very welcoming, it needed a whole evening to get warmer and being a frosty night the atmosphere didn’t feel nice. Maybe someone should check on day of arrival if the default 10C the heating is set on are enough.

Thanks for the review and great to hear you enjoyed your time in York. Sorry to hear you found the property a little chilly on arrival. We do set the heating to a comfortable temperature before guests arrive so not sure what's happened there. We'll certainly have all the settings double checked
