About the Hotel
Hilton York occupies a striking position on Tower Street directly beside the River Ouse and within view of Clifford's Tower, the keep of York Castle that has watched over the city since the Norman conquest. The hotel's restaurant, bar, fitness centre, and extensive conference facilities serve both leisure guests and business travellers, and the multilingual staff reflect York's status as one of England's most internationally visited cities.
From Tower Street it is a short walk along the riverside to Skeldergate Bridge and the heart of the old city. York Minster, the largest medieval Gothic cathedral in the British Isles, is fifteen minutes on foot through the Shambles and the medieval street network. The Jorvik Viking Centre lies nearby, the York Castle Museum is a five-minute walk, and the intact Roman and medieval city walls can be joined almost from the hotel entrance to begin the full circuit of the city.
