The bed was way too small and the place need updating it's too dated

The staff was really helpful and the breakfast was superb.

They didn't tell us at check in that you should book the fat abbot for evening meal, it gets booked up so make sure you book a table!

The place is very beautiful and so reasonable priced. The spa facilities are great and we're not busy at all when we were there. There is a bus to York right outside so no need to drive and park. We loved our stay

On arrival to the Parsonage we were welcomed by very friendly staff. Lovely rooms and facilities with easy access to York.

There could have been a bit more choice at breakfast eg different breads, also some muesli or granola.

Comfortable room, friendly staff, great spa facilities - enjoyed the pool, sauna, steam rooms and aromatherapy room.

There was a lot of black mould on the windows in the room and the bathroom window was quite rotten. The pillows were really hard.

Breakfast was great with a wide range of choices. Room was warm with everything we needed.

No access to the leisure facilities from inside the hotel (have to walk outdoors to get there), plus there’s steps to get up to the pool itself which I didn’t feel safe doing in bare feet. The building is very old (and I get that) but the windows on our room, particularly the bathroom) were absolutely rotten which is such a shame. Should have a king size bed in this star of hotel not a standard double.

Easy access to York by bus from right outside the hotel. Sauna & steam rooms were good.

The drink prices in The Fat Abbot are on the high side.

Breakfast was good, staff were friendly. The spa area is excellent. Our meal in The Fat Abbot was good. The bedroom was clean and comfortable and pretty quiet.

Lovely hotel, your stay includes the use of the spa. We stayed in the Coach house, which was comfortable and clean. However, for us, the bed was far too hard, but that aside, we were pleased with the room with free parking just outside the Coach House. As a bonus, there is a wonderful friendly pub, "The Fat Abbot" on site, great atmosphere, and excellent meals. Overall, I would definitely recommend this hotel, especially for travel to the centre of York as the local buses pick up/drop off every 25 minutes outside the hotel, which is fantastic.

Very dated public areas, key cards only worked occasionally, and the wifi was horrible

Good spa facilities and cosy little bar

We couldn’t get into the fat Abbott for food as was fully booked with a large party so we had to drive elsewhere to eat, just a shame

Had to make 3 phone calls to get the heating turned on in our room- it was cold after our treatment, it had been turned off whilst we were at the spa. Then it had been turned off again when we returned from our evening meal. Each time we were told it was on a timer centrally - we had no way of turning it on and had to wait.

The rooms were lovely Fabulous treatment at the spa Food was excellent Great location Very helpful male receptionist who helped us get Netflix working!

The first bedroom we were sent to had a 3/4 bed. Far too small for us. When we asked we were given a better room. Don't go for room 6! It was also expensive for a hotel which feels to need some refurbishment. It was £200 for one nights b and b.

The breakfast was amazing. Really good products. Fresh fruit salad. Fresh croissants etc.

Bathroom was tired. Shower leaked but if everything was refurbished it would be more expensive so it did represent value for money

Helpful friendly staff. Good value for money.
