We stayed one night in early Feb., and hope to return again when the weather is a little nicer. The hotel had a great view of the river and bridge. We had a room right over the reception area, with it's own balcony. Yorktown was very quiet when we were there, but sightseeing on foot was enjoyable even in the... More

This is a quick trip from RIC. Duke of York has a great view of the York River, is a minute's walk to Yorktown Pub, plenty of places to walk to with a view of the river. Maybe not somewhere to go for more than a few days, but relaxing. The Duke of York rooms are BIG. Not modern, but... More

We stayed here the weekend of Oct. 21-23. We got married in Yorktown, at the Watermans Museum on that Saturday. The months preceding the big day, I worked closely with the manager, Ruth. She and I spoke frequently to make sure all of the guests were getting appropriate rooms ect. Upon arrival, she greeted us with a very warm welcome!... More

When I called for my reservation I was reserving a room for a wedding I would be attending. The women I spoke with on the phone was not very friendly and seemed very un-accomodating. However once I arrived at the duke of york the young man at the lobby desk was very helpful and friendly. The rooms are outdated and... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Duke of York while visiting our son at the US Coast Guard Training Center. We do alot of traveling along the east coast of the US and the atmosphere at The Duke of York was in keeping with an appreciation of the spirit of America, a welcomed change from the sterile chain hotels....

The rooms were very clean. A little "dated" but otherwise nice. The private balcony made for a nice extra touch. Had it not been pouring rain it would have been perfect for coffee in the morning. The beach, the dock, shops and pub just a few steps away make for a perfect weekend getaway. More

This is our 4th year staying at The Duke of York. Everyone is friendly and helpful. The Manager is a lovely woman who makes sure everyone feels welcomed. The view of the beach, river and bridge are simply beautiful. Great place to relax. More

I stay here because of the location to the Yorktown Pub. I have stage here on and off for twenty some odd years and the place never changes. You have a great view of the river and the rooms are really reasonable. If you are looking for luxury this is not the place, but if you need a clean room... More

read other reviews but needed to find out for my self with out going through the stay i will say that the rooms are in need of major repair and i mean major toilets leaking ect. The mgr is very rude. It is not worth the 125.00 per night that we paid. I have had nicer rooms at comfort inns.... More

I am sorry this guest felt this way , however, I feel this review was written in retaliation for not receiving a free night stay. There was a slight problem with the toilet which was fixed in the matter of seconds. Also, as far as the motel being run down, we have family reunions that have been staying with us... More

The room reminded me of a 1970's BOQ room. The carpet was stained. I had to repair the toilet twice. The sink drained slowly. The old TV picture tube was about to fail. HOWEVER, the location and the easy access to the Yorktown battlefield and the Coast Guard station nulified some of the inconvenience . The view of the York... More
