York Gastro Pub Named as Most Affordable Short-Break Stay

Historic York Pub, The Guy Fawkes Inn, is among the best for affordable breaks in the city.

Just opposite the stunning York Minster, Guy Fawkes Inn has been praised for its affordability, with delicious dishes served in its restaurant and 13 unique bedrooms for guests to choose from.

In their latest travel guide, The Times has commented on the fantastic quality of the Guy Fawkes Inn’s unique bedrooms available, great for those wanting a short stay in the heart of this historical city.

Visitors can unwind in the traditional rooms, with spiralling wooden four-poster beds and antique dressers giving a real glimpse into York’s past. The rooms also offer lovely views of the cobbled streets which make this city break spot so unique.

There are also some great foodie options available at the Guy Fawkes Inn, hearty Sunday lunches and pub classics like fish and chips, bangers & buttered mash with caramelized onion, and a decadent sticky toffee pudding, making it one of the best eateries in York.

The Times wrote about Guy Fawkes Inn: ‘’UK breaks are so expensive! But the budget British hideaway still exists — you just have to know where to find it.

In the history-steeped city of York, you want digs that deliver on romance and atmosphere. Helpfully, the Sunday roast here is legendary — with hefty Yorkshire puds, naturally.”

Also, the central location of Guy Fawkes Inn means it is right on the doorstep of tourist attractions, including award-winning ghost tours and the obligatory exploration of the Shambles Market.

There is a range of brilliant pub stops nearby too, with The Fat Badger boosting a beautiful pub garden just next to the city walls, or the House of Trembling Madness being a local favourite for craft beer and nibbles.

Sound good? You can book your city break stay here.
