Our stay at the Barbican House could have not been better! Sabina got in touch with us before our arrival to ask about our estimated arrival time and whether we required parking. Durga kindly welcomed us on our arrival and he suggested various places and restaurants to go to. In addition, there were many other additional recommendations in the guest book we found at the room we stayed in. Fantastic communication all the time! The room was spotless, very comfortable, and had everything we needed. In addition, the hotel is within walking distance to all the places we had time to visit during our short stay. We would have loved to try their breakfast as all reviews were extremely positive about it! Unfortunately, we had a very early event to attend both days, and sadly we had to miss it. If we ever come back to York, our first place to check will for sure be the Barbican House. Thanks ever so much, Durga and Sabina, we really had a wonderful time! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa 20 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely place Barbican House is lovely. Very comfortable bed and room was decorated very nicely. Breakfast with tea was wonderful ( you need to order the night before and it is an extra charge). Durga is lovely and even ordered a taxi for me to get to the airport. ##### Lisa Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pam 6 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This was a very cute bed and breakfast and the host was beyond helpful. I really can't say enough good things about him! We unfortunately were not able to have breakfast as they don't start serving until 9 and we needed to be on our way for the day by 9 :) The room was clean, although the bathroom could have been cleaner. Speaking of the bathroom, the shower was tiny. The shower in a travel trailer is bigger. If you are a larger individual, or if ladies want to shave their legs, not a chance. It is like being in a sardine can. The other item to note is the location. It is very conveniently located for walking to downtown to see the attractions, however, it is on a very busy intersection which was very loud and had bright lights all night from traffic. ##### Pam Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gina 18 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A real Gem We booked the Barbican House as we had tickets to see Paul Weller at the Barbican. From the minute we arrived they were so helpful. The room itself was spotlessly clean with the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. We hadn't booked breakfast but decided to order as we arrived, the cost was £15 each per night, it was delicious with fresh fruit and cereal to start and then a full English with gorgeous bacon and sausages. Nothing was too much trouble for the host, he was so lovely. We had such a wonderful stay we didn't want to go home. Would definitely stay here again it's a gem of a place. Thank you again for your hospitality. ##### Gina Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### JAY 18 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The owner, Mr Durung is such a nice man, friendly, helpful and with an impeccable military background too. My room was very nice. Lovely furnishings, clean en suite bathroom with a nice shower plus multiple tea tray options and plenty of milk and sugar which is often kept to a minimum at other places. The bathroom toiletries (The White Company) are not cheap and they smell absolutely lovely. The B & B is well situated with the nicest smelling fauna on the exterior corner. Access to the city wall, the Shambles, Minster and all that York City centre has to offer is a convenient short walk away. The only downside for me was the noise of the traffic outside but that's a personal slant as it wouldn't be an issue for a heavier sleeper. All in all, I would throughly recommend Barbican House. The 'No vacancies' sign was displayed while I was there and I can totally understand why it's such a popular place to stay. ##### JAY Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nigel 11 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort we stayed at Barbican House as we were going to the Barbican theatre, 2 minutes walk away. The room was lovely, clean and comfortable with plenty of tea and coffee to choose from. Breakfast was good to. Parking was a bit tight but the owner parked the car for me and it fit in well. ##### Nigel Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### D 18 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Best hotel in York Brilliant host, comfortable room and excellent breakfast ##### D Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Grant 22 Sept 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities A beautiful property and terrific owners. ##### Grant Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hampton by Hilton York Piccadilly](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-York.h67320076.Hotel-Information) > > [Jorvik House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Jorvik-House.h2471799.Hotel-Information) > > [No.1 by GuestHouse, York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Grange-Hotel.h11750.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Styles York Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Ibis-York-Centre.h34311.Hotel-Information) > > [The Queens Hotel & Victoria Cloisters](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Queens-Hotel.h11021657.Hotel-Information) > > [The Crescent Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Crescent-Guest-House.h2244613.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-York-City-Center.h1005.Hotel-Information) > > [The Churchill Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Churchill-Hotel.h1779789.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn York City Centre by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-York-City-Centre.h786908.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-York.h430141.Hotel-Information) > > [Judges Court](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Judges-Court.h8842842.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-York.h5388905.Hotel-Information) > > [Roomzzz York City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Roomzzz-York-City.h40584198.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel du Vin & Bistro York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Hotel-Du-Vin-Bistro-York.h7730418.Hotel-Information) > > [Moxy York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Moxy-York.h36762017.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Indigo York by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Hotel-Indigo-York.h11077351.Hotel-Information) > > [York Pavilion Hotel, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-York-Pavilion-Hotel.h8922.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-York-Marriott-Hotel.h687255.Hotel-Information) > > [Malmaison York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Malmaison-York.h60606604.Hotel-Information) > > [Clementine's Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Clementines-Town-House-Hotel.h1501378.Hotel-Information) > > [The Milner York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Principal-York.h148.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Hilton-York.h520445.Hotel-Information) > > [Middletons Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Middletons-Hotel.h792058.Hotel-Information) > > [Elmbank York, Tapestry Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Elmbank-Hotel-Lodge.h564409.Hotel-Information) > > [The Grand, York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Grand.h3697588.Hotel-Information) > > [The Minster Hotel York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-The-Minster-Hotel-York.h1223344.Hotel-Information) > > [Wheatlands Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Wheatlands-Lodge-Hotel.h8183878.Hotel-Information) > > [Dean Court Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Dean-Court-Hotel.h7413.Hotel-Information) > > [Hocus Pocus Tiny Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Hocus-Pocus-Themed-Accommodation.h69403139.Hotel-Information)
