Frommer's Review
Set on an 11-hectare (26-acre) park, this hotel is on the outskirts of York, near the racecourse and away from the traffic. It's clearly York's leading hotel. Built in 1699, the stately, red-brick William and Mary country house was purchased by Historic House Hotels and beautifully restored, both inside and out. Lots of antiques create the ambience of a classic manor house. The rooms are located in the main house and restored outbuildings. Accommodations in the annex (a converted stable block) have slightly less drama and flair. All the bedrooms have been styled to evoke the aura of a country house, though all the modern comforts have been installed as well.
Facilities:
2 restaurants; bar; indoor heated pool; Jacuzzi; gym; spa; sauna; steam room; room service; laundry service; dry cleaning

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
