We stayed in the Peony Room, decorated after its namesake. We thoroughly enjoyed the attention to detail with the furnishings (ask Steve about his experiences at Auction to secure authentic period furniture, fascinating), delicious food, welcoming hosts and atmosphere. The Bloomsbury is close enough to York centre that we highly recommend you leave your car behind and walk into the... More

Steve and Trish are great hosts. They are very interesting people. If you are so inclined be sure to spend some time with them discussing anything of interest to you. It is part of the experience. The breakfasts are wonderful with a large menu of options and you leave full and energized. And may I suggest to visit the Minster... More

I chose the Bloomsbury based on the reviews I had read on TripAdvisor and they didn't disappoint. From the moment we walked in we felt at home. Steve greeted us and immediately put us at ease, enquiring had we been to York before, what were we planning to do and showing a genuine interest and all the time he was... More

We have stayed in some lovely hotels in cities around the country and abroad. We can honestly say that The Bloomsbury is up there with the best of them all. A mini Waldorf Astoria in York! Beautiful decor, lovely food, the kindest and most helpful owners and staff, free wifi, good parking, only a short stroll from the town centre,... More

Thanks Mel and Dawn for a lovely review. You've hopefully taken home some wonderful memories of The Bloomsbury, York and not forgetting Harvey who sends you both a lick! It's not far from Penrith to York so we hope to see you both again!! All the very best for your future happiness together as man and wife! Tricia and Steve... More

We stayed at The Bloomsbury purely on the reviews it has from TripAdvisor, and it really lived up to the high expectations set. We stayed as part of our anniversary weekend and I asked Steve if he could arrange some flowers and champagne for the room as a surprise for my girlfriend, he was quick to react by email and... More

Myself and friends have just got back from a lovely break in York. We stayed at the Bloomsbury and can highly recommend it. We had single rooms - all named after flowers. The b&b is recently renovated to a very high standard. The rooms were clean, beautiful and quiet. The proprietors were very friendly and everything was provided for us.... More

Thanks Sylvia, and it was a real pleasure having you all stay with us. We hope that you choose York again as the place to get back together. Next time you come Petunia ( pictured) will have been fully refurbished with a new ensuite, furnishings, etc. and it'll hopefully be even better! This work will be done by the end... More

Our stay at the Bloomsbury was wonderful. We stayed one night in York and wanted a B&B. The room was lovely, clean and plenty of room for 2. The English breakfast was great, and the owners were so helpful and kind. Also, free WiFi is available in the room, which is very helpful and convenient. I have already recommended this... More

When I first announced to my partner we were going to York for our 3 year anniversary we were not staying at The Bloomsbury. A last minute change of heart, looking at the reviews on this site, I decided to switch bookings and stay at The Bloomsbury. What a great decision. York itself is a fantastic place with brilliant museums... More

A fantastic place to stay for a break in York in a truly lovely area on the edge of the city. After deciding on the Guy Fawkes in York city centre I had a last minute change of heart after looking on Trip Advisor and seeing the many great reviews for The Bloomsbury. I'm sooooo glad I did check this... More
