B+B York surprisingly enough is a Bed & Breakfast in York City Centre. There were a couple of reasons that B+B York stood out to me. The B&B has 26 rooms, so a lovely size for a place to stay in York. But the main reason I picked this accommodation over others was that this York B&B included parking (FREE parking!)

My Experience at B+B York
Check-in at B+B York
Check-in time from 14.00 | Check-out time 11.00
I had phoned up the day before to ask what time I could leave my car since I wanted to make the most of my weekend in York. The lovely lady on the phone was very helpful, she said I could leave my car any time from 11.00 in the B&B car park but to pop in for a car permit when I arrive.
I arrived about 12 noon, popped in the pick up my car permit and had a warm welcome from the lady on reception. She offered me useful tips for things to do and also gave me a map of York.
After my day exploring York I checked in to my B&B about 17.00. I was given a mini-tour of the facilities, including the breakfast room and bar area before being shown personally to my room.

My room at B+B York
Checking into my room I was impressed by the simple but modern style of the room, matching cushions and curtains tie the room together. There are personalised B+B York sweets on the pillows too, along with a handy information pack with places to visit in York and top things to do 🙂

There’s an en-suite bathroom, with a large shower. There’s also a note to remind guests staying more than one night to re-use their towels where possible.
Breakfast at B+B York
Breakfast at B+B York was a buffet style, which you could help yourself to, different juices, danishes, yoghurts plus mini jam, Nutella and honeypots. They also have a coffee machine which you can help yourself to drinks, not just during breakfast but throughout your stay.
You then have the option to select a cooked breakfast from the menu, I picked the ‘Big Breakfast’, which you can see from the photo below. Maybe a few too many beans for me but the most important thing is a runny poached egg, which it was!
Other cooked breakfast options included eggs Benedict and a 3-egg omelette.
If you have an early start then B+B York offers an option for hot breakfast sandwiches to go! There’s a card in your room so simply fill it in and hand it in at the reception. You can have bacon, egg and or sausage on brown or white bread!
At the hot drinks station, there are takeaway cups so you can have a tea or coffee to go too!
B+B York Overall Thoughts
During my time in York, staying at the Bed and Breakfast – B+B York, I had a comfy and relaxing night’s sleep. The bed and pillows were good quality and the walls were soundproof, I didn’t hear anyone else in neighbouring rooms or banging doors. I began to wonder if anyone else had checked in but at breakfast, there were lots of other guests so the B&B seemed full!

Would I stay at B+B York again?
Yes, I would be happy to stay at B+B York again. Both the room, B&B facilities, breakfast and location were perfect for a weekend in York.
The facilities at the Bed and Breakfast were handy if you wanted to relax in a social area, with the cosy bar area. The coffee machine was available to help yourself to drinks. After a cold night on the Ghost Walk, it was great to come back and have a hot chocolate from the machine to take to my room.
The staff were all very welcoming and friendly, which is lovely to experience as a solo traveller.
I’d be happy to recommend this B&B to anyone visiting York.
