10 Stonegate Court

If you want a great apartment while visiting York, this is the place. The location was perfect - right in the middle of city center - but it is so far off the street, it's very quiet and feels very secure. You'll hear a lot of church bells, but being one block from the Minster is well worth it. The Stays office is only a couple of blocks away, so it's easy to stop in to ask questions. The train station is an easy walk, too. We enjoyed visiting the shops, pubs, and restaurants all within a few blocks. Since we never drive in England (we'd be a hazard trying to drive on the other side of the road), we were on foot throughout our visit, and had no problem visiting the shambles, the minster, the walls.. the whole York experience. One of the best Airb&b's that I've ever rented.

I have previously lived in York and know that city well. So when I say this, I cannot be more clear. If you are visiting to experience York’s many attractions there is no better location. Immaculately clean, spacious and comfortable. This is easily my favorite property I have stayed in yet.

This was my first time in York, and I will be back - and I'll hopefully be staying here again!
The location could not be better... this is an expression people use, but it is literally true - THE LOCATION IS PERFECT.
Great facilities, 2 courtyard decks/patios (1 large with table for 4 people, 1 small w 2 person table.
Excellent, highly recommend.

The location of 10 Stonegate is what makes this property stand out. My husband and I stayed here once before in 2018. The property was in much better shape 5 years ago. Housekeeping has declined significantly since then. Windows needed cleaning. The front doormat was filthy and needed to be replaced. Carpets in both bedrooms stained, dirty, and in need of a deep clean. A significant amount of crumbs and tissues under the furniture cushions. (Stays York responded immediately and a team came and cleaned under the cushions). Kitchen cabinet exteriors were sticky. Large kitchen rubbish container lid and the inside had old food stains and debris. The water temperature in the shower was too hot and we were unable to turn it down so that shampooing was at a cooler temperature. Bedroom furnishings in need of updating. Large wardrobes in both bedrooms are outdated and take up much needed space. Suggest replacing with a smaller more modern unit. A makeup table and chair are needed in the main bedroom for the comfort and convenience of guests. A shelf would have been appreciated in the walk-in shower. A shelf over the sink for toiletries in the walk-in shower bathroom would have been handy. A secure lock box for key retrieval at the property would be a better option rather than having to make the trip to Stays York in High Petergate to pick up and return the key. If all these issues were addressed the property would be outstanding.

Very conveniently placed central location, walking distance from the station. A clean and comfortable flat.

Spacious, clean accommodation, well placed for the city centre. The beautiful view of the minster is a bonus!

We stayed at flat 10 Stonegate York for a short break with a couple of friends. The location was perfect, central yet quiet and everything was on our doorstep. Parking for one car was via a permit at a 6 -8 minute walk away. The Flat was very spacious and extremely clean. It was pretty well appointed too. The only 2 things I would note: a non- slip shower mat in the ensuite would have been useful and a table or dressing table in the main bedroom too. Otherwise the beds were extremely comfy, lovely sheets and very warm and cosy throughout. The other added benefits were the 2 outside spaces, a large patio and a small balcony. Didn't use them in December but would have been great in summer, especially with such a great view of the Minster. Would definitely book again.

We had a great stay at StoneGate. Myself and my partner too my in laws for a few nights stay, everything was right on our doorstep. Apartment had everything we needed. Would definitely book again.

This apartment is in a fantastic central location within the York city walls. The set up of the unit is great however the unit is in need of a good detail to keep it within the standard you would expect for the tariff paid. Stains on the carpet, scuffs on the bedroom walls and dirty door tracks with broken seals ( to outside courtyard) are needing attention. The beds and pillows although presenting well are not as comfortable as other places we have stayed. With these attended to we would happily return and it will continue to be a wonderful place to stay.

Amazing location in the centre of town, minister, dungeon, museum and other attraction in walking distance and surrounded by plenty of great restaurants! Clean and comfortable with all the necessary amenities. Parking space is included in stay but it is about a 10 min walk away from the apartment so keep this in mind. Would definitely book again!

Amazing view of York Minster! Great location, the longest we had to walk anywhere was 15 min to get to the Railway Museum. Everything was so close. Very clean. We had a train issue so got to York a little later than planned. Stays York was great. Their office was closed when we arrived so they arranged for someone to meet them us. Really appreciated the great customer service. Did I mention the amazing view of York Minster! I would totally stay here again.

Great accommodation. Right in the heart of everything - easy walk everywhere. Stays made everything run smoothly for us

Stayed here for 2 nights, 4 people, great location, lovely rooms and very clean. And a very responsive host team. We will be back!

Lovely apartment in a superb location. Very clean and well equipped, Just could do with a mirror by plug socket for drying hair.

Apartment is perfect, so relaxing, the roof terrace is a sun trap, had a fab afternoon up there with my sisters, food, wine and the bells chiming in all there glory on the hour from the Minster, it was perfect!! So comfortable to return to after a day exploring York! Loved every minute!

Loved this place. Comfortable, clean, spacious. The wee terrace out the back was an extra plus, the sun hit it around midday, it was lovely to sit out and have a late breakfast or afternoon tea. Despite being so central, it was very quiet. Would definitely go back again.

Lovely flat in a prime central location, yet situated on an internal courtyard so it’s very quiet. Clean and modern, with plenty of living space and a view of the Minster. Well suited for our family of 3.

We had a wonderful 3 night stay in this very clean, comfortable and spacious apartment. The views were great and the balconies in the Summer would be such a bonus. The central location, easy access and key collection made for perfection. We will return.

Brilliant apartment right in the heart of the walled city that has restaurants and shops on the doorstep yet is surprisingly calm and quiet considering its central location. Unlike some previous reviews we heard very little bell ringing from the minster. The apartment felt spacious, airy, and was well-equipped. And the espresso coffee maker with complimentary coffee pods was very welcome in the mornings! The management company for the apartment were extremely helpful and accommodated requests for my visually impaired travelling companion which made our stay much more enjoyable. There was even a welcome box with coffee and chocolate. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone considering a visit to York.

Excellent. A lovely apartment in an ideal location. Clean, well equipped, comfortable, and very central, yet tucked away so that it was quiet and relaxing. I particularly enjoyed the view of York Minster. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Had a great stay here.

We had a fantastic stay at this property. Apart from being a very comfortable place to stay for a few days the location was what really made this stay so perfect. To be able to step out of the door and be right in the centre of York, right by the Minster, was incredible and we couldn't get over the view from the terrace - absolutely spectacular! The flat itself is very comfortable for a few nights, with plenty of kitchen equipment if you want to cook in, a dishwasher and a washing machine (very useful) and two well-appointed bathrooms. Highly recommend and we'd love to stay again.

Lovely apartment right in a perfect location for shopping, dining and sightseeing but also tucked away from the hustle and bustle. The apartment had everything we needed to enjoy our stay and the Stays staff were very friendly when we collected and dropped back the keys. I would certainly stay here again.

Lovely apartment overlooking York minster . Very modern and contemporary with all mod cons. When we arrived we had a lovely little hamper from stays of York . This contained a few essentials and some local luxury items . Very nice indeed. There were four of us so ideal with double room each . Few issues were the first room had no mirror . So difficult with makeup etc . There was one in bathroom but this steamed up after use . The en-suite room had a mirror but this was not near a plug so difficult to see when drying hair . There is no parking but the stays York lady advised us of times and places to unload etc . Very central and it was lovely to just come downstairs and out into the busy street . Plenty of cafes, bars shops on your doorstep. We wanted to stay longer !!

This accommodation is a modern flat in a residential complex; be aware of it but don’t let it put you off. It should be mentioned that it’s not in Stonegate, rather that’s the name of the complex and you enter it from Blake St - after the initial surprise, again don’t let that put you off. It’s city centre with all the pro’s and cons that brings, but it’s ideal for ignoring the car for the entire time you’re there and walking the walls, eating in the restaurants and drinking in the pubs! The flat was spotlessly clean and well equipped for our 4 day stay; it has a secure entry to the flats and a lift should it be required, and the views of the Minster from the small front balcony were a beautiful backdrop to breakfast and lunch. Yes the space below is - actually what is it?! - overgrown with vegetation, but it’s so overgrown it just looks like a wild garden and certainly wasn't off putting. Accept that it’s a modern city centre flat and I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. Lastly, a word for Stays York - they helped us out in a difficult situation and tweaked the dates of our stay - many thanks for your flexibility!

This property is excellently placed in the busy centre of the city. Fabulous apartment and well worth going back to.

Apartment was in a excellent location and was spacious , clean and had everything you need , we stayed for 7 days and could not fault it , would definetly recommend it

This apartment was fabulous. Great views of York Minster and very close to the centre. Was very spacious and well equipped and very safe. There is a lift to the first floor. We had a small balcony overlooking York Minster and another larger one off the main bedroom. Would definitely use again. We parked in Marygate car park, it’s about a 10minute walk.

Amazing place. Clean with all the amenities you could need. Surprising when you get through the first doors as it’s a bit of a walk and a bit of a secret little community. Really quiet considering where it is. Highly recommend it and the service was excellent even out of hours.

The apartment is in a great location and is very well appointed. Overall we were very happy with it however there were a few issues. 1. The drains need flushing out properly. The shower tray in the en suite overflowed when used. The shower over the bath in the main bathroom also filled up and did not drain properly. The en suite issue was partially fixed during our stay but got worse again by the end of the week. 2. Overall cleanliness was very good but the patio areas need sorting. The small balcony area was filthy and the larger terrace area was in danger of becoming overun with weeds. 3. Be prepared for noise. It is centrally located and we heard raucous shouting and screaming most nights until the early hours. Presumably all the awful stag and hen parties that would normally plague Eastern European cities have had to adapt to Covid and are staying home to ruin our cities instead. 4. Be prepared for noise from the flat above. Obviously hard flooring as we could hear them clattering about half the night as though they were in our bedroom. 5. Beware parking. One of our party used the parking permit given by York Stays to park in local car park. When they came to leave they were told the permit was for residents only and shouldn't be used by tourists and short stay guests. They had to pay to get out the car park. 6. Key collection and drop off is a faff. 7. The main entrance is an attraction for local down and outs to congregate to drink, smoke and sleep over night.

Spacious apartment in a great location. Lovely patio area which gets the sun late afternoon into the evening (in July). Observations - would have liked more drawers in the main bedroom, especially as we were there for 9 nights. I reported that 1 bedside light and the handheld shower head in the main bedroom/en suite didn’t work. Hopefully they’ve been sorted. Great to be in the centre of the city but be aware the church bells start ringing at 8am. The view of the Minster from the small balcony is lovely, only spoiled by the overgrown courtyard below. Overall we had a very enjoyable stay.

Amazing! Everything you could need. The location is perfect. 30 second walk to Betty's Tea Rooms, 1 minute walk to the Minster and 5 minute walk to the Shambles.
I have stayed in a few airbnb apartments and can honestly say this was the best ever and I will definitely go back to stay there when I return.
Everything you need is provided for including dishwasher tablets, laundry tablets and even washing up liquid!
Views from the balcony are amazing!

Top marks for location. The property looks exactly as it is presented in the photos. It’s surprisingly quiet given that the entrance is on a busy street. What I hadn’t realised was how much of a faff it would be to check in and check out. To check in, you need to go to the Stays York office, pick up the key and parking permit for the car. However there is nowhere to park, so I left my husband on a double yellow line to race into the office. Then it’s a 10 minute walk from the car park to the flat — which isn’t too bad unless you have luggage. Pack light! Checking out we were asked to leave the parking permit in the flat, but return the keys to the office. This meant bringing our luggage to the car (10 min walk), returning to the flat to deposit the parking permit (10 min walk), then walking to the office to leave the keys. There was an issue with the shower in the en-suite, which we raised but there wasn’t really enough time to fix it. We were only there for three nights. Finally, in this age of Covid, I was surprised to see there was plenty of Fairy liquid but no hand soap in the kitchen! All in all, a fantastic apartment centrally located but I expected more given how much we were paying.

“The view of York minister makes this a very special location - it was great to have breakfast while enjoying the view! It is a great base from which to explore York.”

This is a spacious 2 apartment with lovely views of the Minster. It is positioned right in the centre of the city and yet as it is in a court of apartments, set back from city streets, it is quiet and peaceful. It is comfortably furnished and well equipped. The only downside is that it takes a bit of planning to get your luggage in and out of the flat as you can only pull up in front of the entrance to the flat complex in the evening (after 8 pm currently). There is a drop off point a few minutes walk away from the flat. Overall I would recommend the apartment wholeheartedly, we had a lovely stay.

Spacious Apartment in Central location, close to York Minster. All amenities within Apartment Would highly recommend

There are a few items needing attention: Stale smell of smoked tobacco needs to be addressed Safety chain on front door needs replacing Some crockery chipped More crockery and cutlery needed for 4 person stay to avoid constant use of dishwasher Dishwasher needs salt replenished Both outside areas were filthy on arrival And had not been looked after for weeks but were addressed during first couple of days Fridge freezer badly iced up - suspect needs defrosting No mirror in second bedroom. No mirror in any room near socket for use with hairdryer Some electric sockets in second bedroom obstructed by wardrobe Electric hob filthy with baked on dirt Floor lamp in lounge Inoperable - has broken bulb in the fitting Front door very tight in the frame often needing it to be banged to lock it. Not impressed with service provided by Domestic Divas but that could be communication problem with Stays I would not recommend this property at the present until most of the above Items have been addressed There was confusion and misunderstanding in Stays office about Both the car parking facilities booked but we eventually obtained satisfaction

“The apartment was wonderful and of high quality, the staff at Stays were very friendly and helpful, and we really loved the view of the Minster lit up at night. Great location in the middle of York. I would highly recommend this apartment.”

“It's an amazing place - still seems in near new condition - beautifully furnished with high-end appliances, spacious, a perfect location, but still quiet. Couldn't have asked for a better place.”

10 Stonegate is a lovely, clean and quiet apartment with comfortable beds and beautiful views of York Minster right in the heart of the city. We had a wonderful holiday there. More cutlery would be appreciated by future guests.

Beautiful modern flat right in the middle of the best area of York. Many great restaurant choices and shops within a few blocks. We would book again. The pictures are accurate and that view is real. The agency helped book us a parking spot as there is no parking. £8 a day.

This apartment was even better than our expectations. Not only was it very comfortable and spacious, it has amazing views of York Minster. Another bonus was the large patio with a large table and chairs for six people out there. There is also a smaller balcony with a view looking at the Minster, which is lovely for morning coffee. The location is like a quiet sanctuary right in the middle of the bustle of Blake Street. At the same time everything is within a short walking distance....restaurants, shopping, etc. We couldn’t have been more pleased with an apartment and would highly recommend a stay here.
