The hype
Travelers universally praise the spotless rooms and unbeatable location, but often grumble about the chaotic breakfast rush.
Hampton By Hilton York Piccadilly
$100-200 / noć
Rezervirajte ovaj smeštaj ako You want a spotless, no-nonsense basecamp directly across from York's coolest street food container park.
Zašto Ljudima Sviđa
- Incredible location: 5-minute walk to the Shambles and Jorvik Viking Centre
- Free hot breakfast with a DIY waffle station that actually works
- Modern, reliable HVAC (a rarity in historic UK hotels)
Brzi pregled: It’s a cookie-cutter corporate hotel dropped into a medieval city, but it works because it’s clean, consistent, and cheaper than the boutique spots nearby.
Pregledano od @lilibethnewham: I checked into the Hampton in York and was honestly shocked by how modern it is inside. The twin room setup was perfect for my trip, and I loved the little touches like the retro fridge. It’s super quiet too since it faces the courtyard. Solid choice.

Reality check
Internal noise is the real enemy here—thin walls mean you might hear your neighbor's TV or hallway conversations more than the street traffic.
- You prioritize a modern, predictable shower over 'historic charm' (read: drafty windows)
- You're visiting for the Christmas Markets and want to be able to drop off shopping bags easily
- You travel with kids who need a reliable buffet breakfast to start the day
Čistoća i održavanje
9
- Housekeeping: Consistent and thorough. Rooms are sealed with a 'CleanStay' sticker after cleaning.
- Bathroom hygiene: Sparkling. Grout is white, glass is streak-free. One isolated report of a smell, but generally hospital-grade clean.
- Maintenance: Excellent. The hotel is relatively new (opened ~2021), so fixtures are modern and paint is fresh.
- Linens & towels: Crisp white linens, standard Hilton quality. Towels are plentiful but not luxury plush.
- Odors & scents: Neutral to fresh. Corridors smell clean, no lingering smoke or mustiness.

No, this property is not pet-friendly. Service animals only.
Is there a fridge in the room?
Yes, most rooms have a small SMEG mini-fridge, but it's usually empty (no minibar stock).

No pool, but there is a decent 24-hour fitness center with cardio machines and free weights.
Insajderski saveti
- ✨
Don't eat dinner at the hotel. Walk 50 steps across the street to 'Spark:York' for incredible shipping-container street food.
- ✨
The 'Queen Room with Sofa Bed' is great for families, but the sofa bed eats up most of the floor space when unfolded.
- ✨
If the main breakfast area is full, check if the overflow seating in the bar area is open—it's usually quieter.
5 stvari koje trebate znati prije nego što krenete
💡The 'bench seating' in some rooms is style over substance—hard and uncomfortable for lounging.
💡The bathroom sliding barn doors don't lock and have a gap—hope you're comfortable with your roommate.
💡You can cast your own streaming services to the 55-inch TV, which is a nice modern touch.
💡The walk from the car park feels much longer than 5 minutes when it's raining sideways.
💡Housekeeping is opt-in for shorter stays; you might need to request daily service if you want it.
