This guesthouse was so fantastic I had to leave a bit of a longer review than i normally would. My wife and I love the city of York anyway so we were excited to be coming back. But walking in the front door of this gorgeous, quirky guesthouse we knew we were in for a treat. We have quirky and eclectic tastes anyway, and this guesthouse far exceeded our expectations. Firstly the room was lovely and comfortable, and we felt right at home. But it's the front 'lounge/chill out' area that is the best thing. It's like stepping into someone's funky lounge room, actually a bit like our place lol. The owner has such great tastes. Lot's of knick knacks everywhere, funky little corners to chill out in, books everywhere to read. We got a great Nepalese takeout from down the road, a bottle of wine, and spent the night together reading some of the books to each other laughing and having such a wonderful and relaxing time. The place is so comfortable, nooky and feels so nice. And super close to town. I would recommend this place to everyone, and we can't wait to stay there again. The staff in the morning we spoke to were super lovely too. I wanted to say to the owner and the staff thank you from my wife and I, and please don't change anything about this place. There are already so many generic boring places out there to stay in. This place's differences are what makes it so refreshing

We had an amazing and relaxing stay here and adored being greeted by little Penny. Such amazing hosts with hearts of gold. The cakes, tea and breakfast were delicious and we loved the sausages. The train station is literally a short walk, peaceful location and kind neighbours. Our room was immaculately clean, cozy and had all the amenities provided to us. We recommend Grove House to anyone looking for a getaway that is a "home away from home." Thank you Linda, Jonathan and little Penny! (Ailene and Mason)

    Among many other positive points: the location is extremely good, easy walking distance from the railway station and from the city centre, but as it is on the other bank of the river from the main commercial streets it's a nice quiet area. Also, it's an old-world luxury hotel, not like all these enormous modern chain hotels.
