Being the birthplace of Joseph Rowntree the building is adorned with old photographs and artefacts that give you a real sense of the history of the building. Superbly positioned just opposite ‘The Shambles', you really couldn't be closer to all that the city has to offer. That being said the apartment has a great balance of being a quiet retreat away from any street noise. Upon entering the hallway leads through to the kitchen/lounge and dining area. The kitchen is equipped with all the amenities you'd expect to find, such as a dishwasher, fridge freezer, Nespresso machine and washer/dryer. There is also a dining table to seat up to 4 for dinner. The lounge is equipped with a sofa that can be converted to a bed to accommodate the occasional extra person. The master bedroom is stylishly presented and features a king size bed and wardrobe alongside bedside tables. The bathroom of the property is very spacious and contains a freestanding, walk in shower and separate bath. Although there is no parking with the apartment, paid for parking is available just a couple of minutes walk away at the Q Park where you can park for a full 24 hours for £19. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Internet access ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Microwave, oven, stovetop, dishwasher](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113610000/113606700/113606699/9d07aefd.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The Shambles - William Morris - Sleeps 4 Guests City Centre - Kitchen - Dryer - Microwave 10 Exceptional 4 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-04&endDate=2025-12-05&selected=113606699&PinnedHotelID=113606699&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96380000/96376200/96376115/40535f60.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### A family retreat that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms City Centre - Kitchen - Dryer - Microwave - Living/dining area 9.6 Exceptional 4 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-04&endDate=2025-12-05&selected=96376115&PinnedHotelID=96376115&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/96000000/95060000/95057300/95057261/14a3576a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Brand new and super stylish 1 bedroom apartment City Centre 10 Exceptional 3 reviews £165 includes taxes & fees 10 Dec - 11 Dec [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-10&endDate=2025-12-11&selected=95057261&PinnedHotelID=95057261&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Private kitchen](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100740000/100738100/100738096/ced6f6b1.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 14th Century Flat, York City Centre.

Also close to several food shops. Well equipped kitchen area and comfortable seating. The downside is that the bedroom is quite small and with little space to unpack; and the flat is up two flights of stairs.
