If you are after quality accommodation in York, look no further than Alexander House. The attention to detail, the cleanliness, the breakfast and most of all the welcome we received were all second to none. (Even getting stuck in snow on the way with an unfortunate delay of a couple of hours couldn't have put a dent in the entire experience). All 3 of us were smitten and look forward to returning again the next time we wish to visit York for longer. Thank you to David and Gillian for being exceptional hosts and making everything so perfect for us - certainly the best B&B accommodation I have ever booked. (I almost don't want to write the review for fear of not getting in the next time we'd like to visit!). A gem of a B&B, well located and highly recommended!

We have returned after a long weekend spent at The Alexander House B & B. We received a wonderful welcome on our arrival. Our room on the first floor at the rear of the property had recently been refurbished to a very high standard. Cleanliness was second to none. The breakfasts were excellent - high quality produce. For those who do not wish to walk in, there is a convenient bus stop with a half-hourly bus service into the city centre Mon to Sat & 2 hourly on Sundays, The rear carpark can be negotiated easily for those with a small car & with care if you have a larger model! We have no hesitation in recommending Alexander House to anyone - we will certainly be staying here on future return visits to York

10 min walk to the centre (20 if you go by the river - lovely walk, thoroughly recommended), great hosts, attention to every detail, super comfortable beds, tasty breakfast (yup - the fruit salad does deserve a special mention). One of the best B&B we've stayed in - book early to avoid disappointment!

My husband & I stayed at Alexander House for two nights in November 2011. David & Gillian were very good hosts. The room we stayed in having been recently refurbished, was very comfortable, bright & also very clean. The breakfast was excellent, a wide choice & as much as you liked. The kettle was always on & the tea was nice & strong. Often B & B's do not use decent tea but Alexander House uses Yorkshire tea, a good brew.

I would & have recoomended this B & B to a friend.
