Hotel Indigo York Review: October 2019
Located on one of the oldest streets in York, the Hotel Indigo York, in the Walmgate neighbourhood is a cosy, cute and quaint hub.
Décor takes inspiration from York’s historic rich chocolatey past and heritage. Leanne and the reception team warmly welcomed us and whisked us straight up to our room.
The most superior rooms are finished to a high specification with quality fixtures and fittings creating a lovely place to stay while you enjoy your York adventures.
Immediately to the right, a deep sunken standalone bath, situated in a clean and contemporary open plan living space with vanity area, complimentary toiletries and a wonderful walk in double person shower with side spray jets and rainfall showers.
Côte continental offerings included the fantastic French Toast with fruit salad and maple flavoured syrup along with the Fruit Salad and Pain Au Chocolat. All washed down with some fabulous Fresh Orange Juice and a marvellous Mimosa made with Blanc de Blancs brut with fresh orange juice.
Super starters included the Marinated olives, Bruschetta Caprese with smashed avocado, sun kissed tomato, torn mozzarella & basil with lashings of balsamic glaze and the fabulous Four cheese arancini goat’s with Red Leicester, mozzarella, cheddar served in fresh tomato sauce. All washed down with a Meantime Pale Ale and an awesome Virgin Mojito cocktail made with fresh mint, lime, sugar syrup and soda.
The four-star Inn, adjoining Bootham Bar at one of the four key Roman Gateways to York’s Walls is steeped in historic charm and character, ideal place to stay of you want to be in the heart of the historic action.
Warmly welcomed by chirpy and cheery Debbie, immediately we knew our stay would be fabulous.
Our rather regal and relaxed room elegantly presented in muted shades looked amazing and had a super cosy snug bed giving us a brilliant night’s sleep.
The Mount Royale Hotel & Spa is situated at the top of The Mount, hence the name. Founded by Richard and Christine Oxtoby in 1967, the hotel was formerly two private houses built during the reign of William IV (1830 – 1837).
The hotel has a country house feel, a home away from home vibe, which offers guests a relaxing place to kick back and chill. This is reflected also in the service, a friendly and professional approach all-round.
Check in process was warm, welcoming and super friendly. The lovely lady adopted a relaxed informal approach providing all the relevant information in a polite and professional manner.
The immaculate Executive rooms are the ideal space to unwind and relax. Ideal for couples, families or business trips away. Fluffy robes and slippers are all provided for you to use throughout your stay.
Warmly welcomed by manager Will and all of his team, who provided prompt professional and personalised service throughout. We relaxed and settled into our corner booth and admired the cosy, contemporary décor while encompassed York’s historic past with the amazing artwork adorning the walls.
Super starters included the brilliant Buffalo mozzarella Crispy artichokes, pear and truffle honey. Also, the lovely roasted scallops Grilled chorizo and ras el hanout roasted butternut squash.
Mouth-watering mains included the show stopping Grilled whole lobster Garlic and parsley butter with watercress and thick cut chips. Also, my fav dish was the vegan roasted butternut squash with grains Buckwheat, chickpeas, pumpkin seeds, sesame and pomegranate with crumbled bean curd, harissa sauce and coriander dressing with an extra added on side of thick cut chips.
