The quirkiness of the whole building, the room was super nice! Bit disorienting going to the loo in the dark with the floor sloping but I loved it. The en-suite was lovely and warm, the shower powerful and nice to have toiletries supplied. The bed was comfortable, a little too maybe as we were meant to be exploring, listening out for anything unusual but we slept like babies. The breakfast was delicious, certainly couldn’t eat all of it but anyone with a huge appetite would have been set for the day. Lots of choice and cooked really well. Location was great and not far at all for the QParking, felt the car was safe too. Staff were lovely, all friendly and we look forward to another stay in the future.
Nothing comes to mind, maybe that there were no ‘bumps in the night’ maybe next time.

It was a quirky/unique fantastic location room that was spotless. Staff were very friendly and able to get in and out anytime of the day and night as they gave you key food, and breakfast was very pleasant to would definitely stay again

Beautiful gothic style room, helpful and friendly staff. Great food! In a perfect location, right opposite the shambles. Loved the spooky paintings adorning the staircase walls. The pub has live music most nights and is generally quite busy but we were pleasantly surprised that we could barely hear it due to the heavy fire door into our room.
Not a complaint, just a heads up for people with a disabilities. Would not recommend this accommodation for people with mobility problems. Due to its age and general crookedness, the stairs are hard to navigate and the floor is very uneven. Not a problem for me but my mum struggled within the property.

The breakfast was served in the bar area and excellent value for the money lots too choose from had the full English and was stuffed setting me up for the day. The pub has fabulous character perfect for its setting in central York and access to the shambles. The staff were excellent very helpful and even set us up with the cheeky little app for discounts around the pubs of York. The bedroom was the 1st at the top of the stairs the Catherine suite, everything in the room starting from the door was wonky...floors ceiling walls the works just as it should be. The room was large warm and had been decorated for Christmas even a tree in the corner. The downside to the room is it's dark one window overlooking a small courtyard but unless you're staying in all day and not enjoying the delights of beautiful York then this shouldn't be an issue. All in all it's a fab quirky place to stay, it does have entertainment on in the evening if you're an early to bed type of tourist but it's free and a nice finish to an evening. Would/will we go back....most certainly.....👍
Leaving...☺️...

The pub has a lovely atmosphere, staff are excellent - especially Rachel who was very informative. Highly recommend ordering breakfast, absolute bargain. It was quite expensive but the room was amazing, had loads of character. I didn't feel any bumps in the night but my partner got the chills and refused to go through to the bathroom on her own and spent half the night awake hearing thuds from upstairs. I was blissfully unaware. We could see the Shambles from our room and people queuing to 'buy a ghost' about an hour before it opened. FYI there's a second shop they don't tell you about until queue is over an hour wait. Don't buy the cheesecakes, they're horrendously expensive and don't have the prices displayed. If you do buy one, get the small individual ones, lemon meringue was gorgeous. Pie shop opposite the ghost shop is a must. Everything is glorious. I regret not buying a bag of pork crackling. The original ghost walk is brilliant - 8pm outside the King's Arms.
I felt the room was still a bit too expensive so that's why I gave it a 9 instead of 10. Was it worth it? Yes. York City centre with M&S opposite for emergency drinks, we chose the ready mixed cocktails in a can. Gorgeous.

My favourite place in York this and we've never stayed so decided we would this time. Love the feel of the place and how old and authentic it is , lots of ghost story's and we did actually see the scales in the bar move on there own one time but nothing on this occasion , we had the shambles room the staff were very welcoming nothing was too much trouble and brought an iron up to the room within minutes of me asking . Apparently the room has just been done out the bathroom is immaculate great shower really powerful and a stand alone bath but once again keeping that old authentic feel to it. Beautiful, the main room was just as nice tele in the Corner a nice sofa at the end of the bed and a nice soft carpet. Beautiful room one again with a really comfy double bed .well worth every penny . Will be back to try a different room next time .easily one of if not the best place I've stayed. Location was perfect too close to everything all the pubs and shops etc , even the car park was 4 minute walk.
If I had to say one thing and one thing only is we couldn't open the windows for fresh air so got a bit hot through the night there was a fan in the wardrobe though so I guess that's why lol ., I payed 28 quid for parking so throw in a free breakfast or discounted breakfast for that 😉 lol .

The building is beautiful and well cared for and the room (St catherines) was decorated sympathetically to the feel of the room. Floors are wonderfully sloping and rising in odd places. Atmospheric in the upmost and not atall bothered by pub noise down stairs as wall thickness tempers in down.
Absolutely nothing. Maybe the staff could tell you what's happening when you arrive because we filled out a form and were just left standing in the bar whilst people being served around us and no one telling us what we are waiting for. Then a chap turned up 10mins later to take us to the room. Not really an issue AT ALL but felt a bit silly standing there no knowing what's happening. DO NOT let this put you off at all. Just a heads up to the staff really.

The Black Fleece is full of Olde World character (boasting exposed beams, interesting architecture and wonky floors in abundance). Our room (Lady Peckett room) was charming and exceptionally clean, with a pod coffee machine, kettle and mini fridge supplied. The downstairs bar had the feel of a good old fashioned pub, proudly steeped with the history of York. We found that the staff were extremely friendly and helpful throughout our stay and that the hotel was located within walking distance of all of the major attractions of the city of York. There was entertainment on in the pub downstairs every night, yet we never heard any noise from downstairs when we were in our room. Breakfast was exceptional and extremely reasonably priced, and we opted to eat it here every morning of our stay. We are definitely planning to stay here on our next trip to York.

The absolute highlight of the stay was how immaculately clean the bathroom was. Polly, who cleaned our room is some kind of cleaning goddess, there was no dust in the corners (I'm sad enough that I checked after clocking the level of cleanliness because I assumed it couldn't be THAT clean), no mould in the shower, it was absolutely spotless and probably the cleanest bathroom I've ever had the pleasure to use. The room was just stunning. There were real(!) plants, a lovely sofa, a mirror on the coffee table so you could sit and do your makeup, nice wooden coat hangers (a small detail but comforting). It was like the staff had stayed in the room themselves and made it as comfortable as you would want your house to be. I didn't catch the manager's name unfortunately but she was really lovely. She briefed us really well when we checked in, reminding us to be careful interacting with others with the races being on, a heads up there was a band on at the pub that night (so it would be loud until midnight which was expected, it's a pub so you'd hope people would be having fun!) and giving us tips for places to go if we wanted a dance. She served us breakfast in the morning and was very kind guiding me around in my very half asleep, dazed state. She's also just a bloody lovely human in general, I felt really relaxed just being around her. Breakfast was nice, nothing too special but nice. They do a vegan breakfast which we were very happy about. The coffee machine wasn't working but we were told where we could grab a coffee (Greggs is next door) and given tips on where a good coffee is for after breakfast. The beer garden is lovely, gets some sun in the morning as well. I'd recommend the Golden Fleece to anyone staying in York. It's a bit pricey but, it's gorgeous - and it's amazing staying in a room travellers have been staying in for hundreds of years!
Nothing that isn't being stupidly picky or could be helped. The coffee machine not working was unfortunate but dealt with really well.

From before check in to after check out every need was met and exceeded. Staff were absolutely lovely, the room was gorgeously decorated and clean! Breakfast in the morning was great and entertainment in the evening was brilliant. Cannot recommend this place enough. Was unsure what to expect reading some reviews but don’t listen to negatives as our experience was fantastic! As people interested in the paranormal we definitely had some experiences but that’s just part of the fun and even without the spookies it’s a lovely place to stay!
