Stayed for one night in Marmadukes and really enjoyed it. The hotel is in a leafy area about 15 minutes walk to the historic centre, or a £5 taxi ride. The rooms were homely with beautiful solid wood furniture and good quality linen. While the chandelier and roll top bath added a luxurious touch. I also found the staff to... More

Me and my husband stayed here as a treat, booked on secret escapes, we got a bargain. The room was lovely decorated, with antique individual furniture, no mass produced stuff!!!! Staff tho quite scarce were helpful. Breakfast was cooked as ordered which was lovely as it hadn't been sat there all morning. Only problem was I had to stand on... More

We stayed in room 516. A few points : Woken both mornings by staff, talking, swearing and smoking outside the window. Shower head fell off when we turned on the shower (very old bathroom). Keys didn't work for the 2 nights we stayed. Awful smell of drains.

What a wonderful stay we had at Marmadukes. The Loft suite is amazing with contemporary decor, a lovely large bathroom with roll top bath and very comfy bed. The staff were very friendly and couldn't do enough for us from making our reservation, dealing with my dairy intolerance with out hassle, recommending places to go in York, helping with our... More

Breakfast was a delight, lots of... More

We stayed one night at Marmadukes in York on a Secret Escape deal. The staff were all very helpful. There have been a few comments on Trip Advisor about the interior decorating/furniture. We thought it worked really well and added atmosphere to the hotel. The two lounges were very relaxing. The bathroom had a roll top bath which looked great... More

We had a pleasant stay and the hotel was close to the city centre, however we found that there was a funny smell, it was quite noisy in the evening and the shower wasn't great. We were also blocked in which was a bit of chew when trying to leave. Breakfast was great!

Our second stay here. Stayed for 3 nights with friends. The breakfast is excellent, everything fresh, well cooked, well presented and of high quality. Without exception the staff are friendly and helpful, especially all the breakfast staff. The hotel is let down by very worn furniture and fittings. That said the bed and bedding were comfortable and warm. So come... More

Loved the hotel! Beautiful reception rooms which we used after breakfast to relax and read the newspapers provided. Breakfast was really nice - excellent options to choose from - compliments to the chef and the staff that served us. The lady on reception who checked us in was extemely friendly - in fact we was talking to her about our... More
