Smelly room.

We mistakenly booked an accessible room. This was not clear on the booking. The room itself stank of damp and had damp patches on the ceiling. When we told the hotel they sent a cleaner with a small bottle of cleaning spray which was never going to do anything.

Good stay at the Miller York

Hotel location is superb. Located right next to train station and 5 min stroll to the centers attractions. Hotel reception, foyer, bars and restaurants are beautiful. Superb pool, sauna, steam room and hottub We didnt use the restaurant's in the hotel but the bars are superb and priced reasonably. Staff were friendly throughout. The room was spacious enough with comfy bed. The bathroom was a bit tired and could do with a revamp. Sadly the room was quite dusty behind and on top of the cabinets in the room. The fridge was noisy and we had to turn it off overnight. Overall, we would stay at the Milner again in the future.

Apart from our room on the first night being totally unacceptable after that we had a wonderful stay. Expedia should make sure the rooms are duitable before passing to the customer. We had a disabled single room. Very sparsely furnished. No bedside table no decent hanging space poor lighting no dressing table no drawers a very dim window which didn’t open. The bathroom was unusable due to the disgusting smell. Fortunately the hotel moved us to a lovely new room with all facilities. I cannot praise them enough. They were all brilliant and understanding.
