The outstanding location and the warmest of Yorkshire welcomes makes The Saxon House Hotel unique amongst the smaller hotels in York.

Friendly proprietor, Nick Read along with his well informed staff, offer a high standard of service, individual attention and a desire to please. Their considerable knowledge of York and the surrounding districts ensure that you only receive the best advice on where to go and what to see.

An elegant stone fronted Victorian residence, The Saxon House has retained many of its original features making each room individual and rich in character. All the hotel's 14 bedrooms include private en-suite facilities, colour television, hairdryers, hospitality trays and toilette accessories.

A full Yorkshire breakfast served in our bright and airy dining room is sure to set you up for the whole day. After a tiring day spent sightseeing or touring, the Saxon's cosy cocktail bar and restful lounge with their inviting atmosphere are the ideal place to relax and meet fellow guests. You have your own keys so you can come and go as you please. The room is yours for the duration of your stay and we hope you will make yourself comfortable and feel at home.

We are situated only a short riverside walk from all Tourist Attractions and Theatres. If you are travelling by car we have our own private car park and we are only a short taxi ride away from both train and coach station. We provide brochures and a map to help you get the best out of your visit to York.
