“Guy Fawkes Inn stands out for its historical significance, especially its link to the infamous plotter, and its location is superb, right by York Minster; the individually decorated rooms and cozy bar create a memorable atmosphere, far from generic hotel experiences. While dining can be inconsistent-some rave, others are less impressed-the Inn's unique character makes it a worthwhile stay for history buffs. I think this spot offers a genuine slice of York's past.”
