About

Situated along the River Ouse, The Queens Hotel offers a well‑connected base for exploring York’s historic centre. Just a short walk from the main hotel, their Victoria Cloisters Apartments provide independent self-catering accommodation. These spacious apartments allow the freedom of self-catering with your own fully equipped kitchens, comfortable lounge areas, and well-appointed bedrooms designed to ensure a restful night’s sleep. At both properties guests are steps away from the city’s shops, restaurants and cultural attractions, with York Train Station, York Minster and the National Railway Museum all within easy walking distance. Accessible rooms in the Hotel are available on request to support diverse traveller needs. Please note there are no lifts at Victoria Cloisters.

The Hotel provides spacious, comfortable accommodation featuring classic décor, free Wi‑Fi, ensuite bathrooms with amenities, in‑room refreshment trays and TVs. On‑site parking chargeable is available with advance booking at both properties.

Guests staying at The Queens can enjoy a seamless dining experience at The Royal Brasserie, serving breakfast and dinner with a mix of modern and traditional dishes. Table booking for both breakfast and dinner are essential. The bar is open daily until midnight, offering added convenience for relaxation and socializing.
