The location of the Lamb and Lion is great for exploring the city - is right inside the city wall. The room was nicely decorated and clean, and had a great shower room. The paintwork on the walls could do with touching up and the kettle boiled right below the TV which can't be good for it (!) The staff... More

Stayed here for 3 nights in March, can't fault the place! Great atmosphere, loved the snug rooms, the other half enjoyed the ale too all over York! Breakfast was fantastic set us up for the day ahead. Room was quiet even though we were right next to the beer garden. Great location to explore York, We travelled by train only... More

I recently stayed at the Lamb and Lion for one night while visiting York to see a gig. It was a little more expensive that some other options but I decided to treat myself. I was greeted at the bar on arrival and discovered my single room booking had been changed to a double (same price), which was a lovely... More

Suggestion to the manager and his staff of the pub: if you can't prepare decent sandwiches, don't offer them at all. Tasteless and dry, an total offence to the client even after a second chance. More

The welcome on arrival was very nice,however reception is the bar which is always bustling and busy. Our room had excellent facilities,... More

My husband and I revisited York in April but I had unfortunately booked the wrong dates for the hotel as we were there the staff at the Lamb and Lion were so understandable. As they were booked up the staff there assisted us by booking us in into their sister hotel Marmadukes, with no added costs and matched our prices... More

Stayed at the L&L recently for a weekend break away to celebrate our anniversary. Overall we really liked this place both as a pub and for somewhere to stay, especially the location which could not have been any better for exploring York. We were attended to promptly upon arrival, checked in and show to our room. The room itself was... More

On a crowded night, hungry and a bit tired, my family went looking for dinner. The bar was three deep but there was little table open. We sat down, flagged a waitress, who declared the table too small, suggested we grab a drink and she would see what could be found. One Black Cat ale later we were ushered into... More

After a recent visit to The Lamb and Lion I can honestly say I will not eat here again. Service was slow and that was after waiting a fair amount of time for the bar staff to get round to serving us at the bar. Although the food was of a good enough standard as we left I noticed a... More
