Hampton by Hilton York

Hampton by Hilton York sits on Toft Green, a quiet street inside York's medieval city walls, a few minutes' walk from the railway station and from the city's most celebrated attractions. A free breakfast is served on weekday mornings, and the property's fitness centre, 24-hour front desk, and business facilities make it an efficient choice for both leisure and corporate travellers arriving to one of England's most history-laden cities. From Toft Green the walk to York Minster—the largest Gothic cathedral in northern Europe, with its extraordinary medieval stained glass—takes under ten minutes along Micklegate. The Shambles, inspiration for Harry Potter's Diagon Alley, lies on the far side of the city walls, while Clifford's Tower, York Castle Museum, and the Jorvik Viking Centre are all within fifteen minutes on foot. The National Railway Museum, the world's largest railway collection, is five minutes from the hotel.
