York stays

A nice apartment really close to all York offers. Apartment had everything we needed for a few days away with our teenager and was really comfortable and well set out. The parking was great. Would recommend Stays York as booking was simple and updates on booking and day of check in were great. We thought the apartment was good value for money and nice to have our own space.

Monkgate Cloisters December 2025

We were in York for a couple of days for an event, and wanted somewhere close to the city centre with parking. This property is only a few minutes walk to Monkgate, so handy for everything. Parking was secure and the apartment was really quiet and peaceful, as it doesn’t overlook the road. It had everything we needed and was pretty spacious for the two of us. We really liked it.

Well, appointed city Centre apartment with secure parking

We had a lovely time during our five-night winter stay! The flat was warm, cosy and had everything we needed. If we had to say something, a blind on the side of the master bedroom window would be a nice touch, as the room is overlooked by the flats next door. Also, the double bed in the master bedroom could do with being a king size.

Hi There, Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We're very glad to hear you had a lovely stay! Thank you also for the feedback regarding the blind and size of the bed, we are always looking for ways to improve where possible. We’d be delighted to welcome you back again in the future. Thanks for staying with us! Kind regards, Stays York

Excellent location

Good choice, and as described. It was only a few minutes from restaurants and pubs, and it took us about 10 minutes to the Minster (being slow walkers!) Everything in good condition, and bed was comfy. Very quiet location. It was a bonus having secure parking. The shower was good, but quite snug, but we managed ok.

A perfect stay for Easter!

My husband and I stayed in York with our 1 year old for 3 nights. We arrived and had no issues finding and getting into the apartment. The location is perfect! An easy 2 min walk to the city centre, 5 min walk to York Minster, and with the added benefit of having gated and allocated parking. The apartment was clean, very comfortable and had everything we needed for the long weekend, including a travel cot for our son. We loved our stay at Monkgate cloisters and would happily stay again! Thank you for a lovely stay!

We had a fabulous stay at Monkgate Cloisters! The flat is super clean with all the conveniences of home..dishwasher, hob, oven ,laundry machine, microwave. Beautiful dishes, and glassware, all the pots you would need to have an evening or two in. The flat looks exactly as depicted on line, very spacious bedroom, kitchen living and dining area as well. The location is fabulous, a two minute walk to the wall, about 7 minutes to the Shambles. So many restaurants, pubs, and shops in the area. Having secure parking included was a definite plus to us. I could view the Minster from the kitchen window,!! Would I come back again...in a heart beat! One of the most beautiful accommodations we have stayed at. Thank you for making our trip a beautiful memory to cherish.
