This is an old hotel centrally located but within walking distance of the ballpark. I had informed the front desk that I planned on arriving late. After a very long drive, I arrived at the Yorktowne to find the front desk empty. I waited, called out and looked around and finally a woman sauntered in from outside. She was supposed... More

This is a very good well kept old style hotel located centrally in York PA. They have two very good restaurants on property. The rooms are spacious and clean. They could use a refrigerator. The staff was friendly and helpful. They have a small gym on property which is perfect for a short visit in York.

Stayed at the Yorktowne for a family wedding and am so glad we did. Our king size whirlpool room was clean and a pleasure to stay in. My husband is still raving about the bed. The ceremony and reception were held there; it was elegant, tasteful, and beautiful. The historic charm of the hotel perfectly matched the theme of the... More

I recently booked this hotel for two nights.I booked this through Priceline and was shocked it was in a four star catagory. It's located in historic york so the outside matches but the inside has not been updated. My children said it reminded them of the Tower of Terror. If you enjoy historical old fashioned places then this place is... More

We were seated about 1:30 pm.(the hours for the brunch were til 3 pm) We had anticipated having our expectation exceeded with exceptional food and service. However, the general consensus after our visit was... More

We chose the hotel because it offered an alternative to the chain hotels that ring the city. It turned out to be a very happy choice; quiet, clean, friendly. The restaurant is superb. Time has caught up with downtown York, but this hotel promises better days ahead.

I stayed at the Yorktowne Hotel last week while on business. It was nice and had some charm that you do not get in a chain hotel. If you are looking for an "experience" then I would pick this hotel. They still have the original mail shoots, your room key is an actual key, and they have a list in... More

Yikes! Stay at your own risk at this hotel. My husband made the reservation for a two-night stay because we were in town for the Eastern Region Volleyball Tournament. Upon arrival, when we checked in, the lady at the check-in counter gave us a "smoking" room because our request was for two double beds. I thought smoking in public places... More

Dear DC World Travelers We apologize for the problems you experienced at our hotel. Now under new ownership, we are in the process of eliminating the remaining Smoking Rooms and will become a smoke free hotel. I'm sorry that we did not offer the non-smoking room with one queen (king) bed to you immediately. My thought is that because you... More

I stayed one night at this hotel. Charm just exudes the moment you walk in. Parking is convenient with an on-site valet parking garage for $8 per night. I did not have a previous reservation, but just walked up to the desk. The person behind the counter (Sharon) was exceptionally friendly and found me a roomat a nice price. The... More

Just stayed in this hotel this week. This was the strangest experience I have ever had at a hotel. The stuffed goat in the box with no explanation located in the lobby. The room had torn curtains, dirty floor, out dated tv with fuzzy picture, etc....The entire hotel was very musky smelling. The valet was creepy at night not knowing... More
