Radisson Hotel York

Radisson Hotel York

8/10 Good
"The hotel is close to the railway station, the room was comfortable and we had a lovely buffet breakfast. We have stayed here many times before and would recommend it. The only disappointment we had on this visit was the amount of service charge applied to our bill when we had a meal and drink in the bar. I had to place the order at the bar and carry my drinks back to our table, which was not a problem, but then I had paid service charge, which technically was just for the waiter to carry out our meals from the kitchen. Isn’t this part of their job? I don’t understand why a service charge is added to your bill, especially without asking the guest first."
