Great for exploring York City
Great location and facilities. Apartment comfy, clean and spacious. Less than 5 mins walk into York centre.
Great place
Cityscape was a great base for our short stay in York. It certainly deserves the name Cityscape as the views were amazing. We would be happy to stay again and recommend to others.
Fabulous for a longer stay
With a stunning view of the Minster this is a spacious light filled apartment. Central yet quiet with private secure parking, it ticked all the boxes. Great amenities for self catering and there are lots of eating, entertainment and shopping options just outside the front door. Highly recommended.
Cityscape is a lovely apartment, very spacious with an excellent view of York Minster.
We spent 12 days at Cityscape. On arrival we discovered the apartment hadnt been cleaned properly after the last occupants left. There were still crumbs on the floor and the contents of a confetti bomb on the floor and under the cushions of the sofa. I also found a bottle cap under another cushion. I took many pictures of the mess and emailed them to StaysYork, they sent cleaners in the following morning but this shouldnt have happened in the first place. There was a filthy fur mat acting as a cushion on the bench seat and the coffee mats had tea/coffee stains. These items had been removed when we returned the following day. I always take cleaning wipes with me when I rent a holiday apartment and believe me, I needed them on this occasion. Otherwise, the beds were comfortable and the showers worked well. We would suggest that blinds or some sort of net curtains were put up at the windows in the living area as not only was there no privacy, it was also very hot and stifling. The fans provided were not up to the job.
Great Stay
We had a wonderful time in York. The apartment is in a brilliant location, and the view is wonderful. The apartment is in need of some TLC - there are some cracks and poor paintwork, and the mattress in the main bedroom is very hard, but we were still comfortable. Some sort of window covering would be good at the windows in the living/kitchen area especially with the building works going on across the road - zero privacy. A welcome pack would have been nice too, some coffee, tea and milk. However, all in all, we would book the same apartment again.
Hello, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we really appreciate the feedback. We will be looking into the issues you have mentioned and making adjustments where necessary. We would be delighted to host you again in the future. Kind regards, Stays York
STAYS YORKAn amazing view from a stylish apartment
Spent a long weekend in York, for a family occasion. We wanted the accommodation to be part of the experience, and this didnt disappoint. Spacious rooms, clean modern kitchen, stylish furniture and decor, all with floor to ceiling city views on three sides. An easy walk into the centre. There are pubs, M&S and the walls within easy reach. The lobby and lifts are clean and comfortable. Welcome/comfort items are a bit sparse so get your own milk and bathroom items but otherwise superb.
Superb Cityscape
Superb location, apartment had great views and was finished to a high standard. Very quiet, and would highly recommend this apartment. Our only criticism was having a shower in the bath was very slippery and could do with shower mat. Stay York were very good and helpful
Festive Christmas Stay
The apartment was excellent, and we would be happy to stay there again. It was clean, comfortable, well equipped, and in a good location for access to the city centre. We stayed over Christmas, and the festive decorations provided were much appreciated. The inclusion of a car park space was another welcome inclusion.
Hi there, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review, we are glad to hear you enjoyed your festive stay with us! Kind regards, Stays York
STAYS YORKBeautiful apartment in a great location
This apartment is lovely, , spacious, great views and in a great location. I would definitely return and recommend to others. Just a shame that there were a couple of small things that have been overlooked ie chipped crockery , stains on bedroom carpet and bath sealant needed replacing that stopped it getting 5*
Good afternoon, Many thanks for your feedback. I am glad you enjoyed your stay in the apartment overall. We will make note to check these points you have raised at our earliest convenience. We appreciate the feedback as without it we would not be able to improve. We look forward to hosting you again in the future!
STAYS YORKPre- Christmas break
Cityscape apartment was very comfortable, clean and tastefully decorated, we even had Christmas Dec's! We had a few minor hiccups eg. Chipped crockery which Stays York is dealing with for the next guests and only the standard welcome pack ( we've stayed at other Stays York apartments which the owners provided the upgraded one). We have left behind some jackets which Stays York are organising the return for a small fee. The staff are amazing. What a service ! Cityscape is ideally situated for everything in the City, with the added bonus of private parking. All-in-all we had a lovely week and would highly recommend Cityscape and Stays York.
What a fab place to stay
This is a beautiful apartment with an imposing entrance foyer, very helpful concierge. The apartment had everything you need, extremely clean, well laid out and the views are simply amazing with really large windows giving a full view of the Minster. It is a very short walk to the city centre, less than 5 minutes. Beautiful apartment, beautiful city and when we return, we would book this again. There is a building site opposite the side but this did NOT detract from the very enjoyable stay.
Fabulous Apartment
Our party of four senior ladies enjoyed Cityscape apartment for its location, convenience and fantastic views across the city of York. The apartment was extremely clean, spacious, with very comfortable beds and equipped with everything you would need and want for a holiday let. The check-in and check-out process was straight forward. The only problem we had was with the shower in the en-suite. The temperature was difficult to control as it would suddenly become very hot. I point this out as I feel this should be checked to avoid any unfortunate accident. Please note no other water was being used at the time to cause a temperature change.
Ladies City Break
A lovely modern flat a 25/30 minute walk from the railway station and an easy 15/20 into the city centre. Well furnished, well equipped and with, rarely found in rentals, comfortable beds with quality linens. A surprising downside was the heat in the flat. With no curtains in the living/kitchen area the flat was stifling hot, 27 degrees, when we arrived and we had a terrible sleep the first night. We learned to open all the windows to cool the flat before bed but by 5am it was very warm again. Not a problem I expected in York in late May! It really needs voile type curtains in the living area to afford some privacy when lights are on in the evening and to take the edge of the sun. Some short simple operating instructions would be great as the technology in the flat did confound us a little - the tv, the dishwasher, even the lighting at first and we couldn't get the Sonos speaker to pair to any of our, all different, phones. We had a great stay and would happily return and recommend.
Huge Apartment, Perfect Location, Fabulous Views.
Easy check in, secure parking, spacious and luxurious, we enjoyed the city views, very close to the centre and the city walls. We stayed for a week and was very comfortable, we will definitely stay again.
Central Location
Comfortable apartment on 6th floor. Quiet building. Unfortunately only one lift working during our stay. Plenty of restaurants to choose from. More cooking utensils would be oreferable if self -catering.
Impressive, Comfortable and Convenient
This is a superbly comfortable apartment, perfectly placed for all York's many attractions with the bonus (for those who prefer self-catering to hotels) of having two convenience stores close to hand, on the same street, and York's main shopping areas within a five minute walk. Guaranteed, free and easily accessible on-site parking is another huge plus point, as parking in the city centre, much of which is pedestrianised, is in short supply and expensive. The apartment has all the facilities one might need, exceptionally comfortable beds and glorious views over the city centre at night. Entry on arrival is by key code provided by Stays York and, thereafter, by keys and car park key fob obtained from a locker area on the ground floor. Booking and backup by Stays York is - as I have always found - excellent. Cleanliness throughout the building is immaculate. I shall certainly be staying here again on one of my many visits to York.
Great location for exploring York with a great view of the city.
Great location for exploring York with a great view of the city. Handy to have a parking space included, directly under the building.
A superb apartment
The apartments was ideal for us and our daughters. Its a fantastic living space to eat and spend family time and also short walking distance to explore York. We will definitely return.
Review
Excellent location and spacious apartment. Would definitely recommend. Only minor points to add - few things missing - soap only in one bathroom, no oven gloves, no surface cleaner, would have been nice to have toiletries given the price paid (relative to other properties we have stayed in). Could do with a clean under furniture.
Not cheap but no disappointment at all.
We stayed for almost 20 days in a 2 bedroom apartment with a very nice view. We were just 5 minutes walk from city centre. All apartment very well fitted and spacious. It's not cheap comparing to other options but I think It's good value for money.
Nice stay with family
A cosy apartment. Silent and clean. Very spacious and excellent rooms and kitchen with a nice view. Just few minutes walk from city center.
Customer service team doesnt have the basics of communication skills and doesnt care about the bus
It takes them ages for them to reply on a things needs to be delivered immediately, I dont think they will continue with auch a team
Prime Location, amazing views, superb accomidation
First trip to York and it was amazing. Just minutes walk to all the prime locations, restaurants and bus routes to get anywhere in the city. It was a pleasure dealing with them when we needed to extend our stay because of the rail strike. Will definitely return.
Cityscape@Ryedale weekend
We stayed at the Cityscape apartment in the gorgeous Ryedale building over a weekend in February. The apartment certainly had the wow factor and we instantly all fell in love with the views. The apartment itself was extremely clean, full of light, had a great atmosphere and felt spacious - even for a couple with 2 kids and an infant. Everything felt like luxury and we all agreed we would definitely want to stay at the apartment again when we next visit York. The fact it includes a parking space, right in the city, was the cherry on the cake. Stays York were great and clear with all instructions and directions and there was a lovely welcome pack on our arrival. We would definitely recommend to anyone who fancies a luxury stay in a wonderful city!
Excellent stay in York, with everything in easy walking distance.
The service provided by Stays York was first class throughout, only blip was no parking permit in the keysafe on arrival. I provided my vehicle registration details to Stays York and they quickly sorted the problem. Molly was particularly helpful during the booking process. The building was very impressive with lovely reception area and a very pleasant and helpful concierge available during the day. All public areas are spotless including the two lifts. The carpark is secure with a number of spaces under cover. The apartment has a high build specification but the bathrooms have no storage surfaces which is a little inconvenient and who would fit a mirror over the toilet and not the washbasin? The furnishings and ambience let the apartment down, has obviously been done at the minimum expense with mainly secondhand furniture. We would certainly stay at this excellent location again but choose an apartment with a few more "home comforts".
Anne - March 2022
We had a lovely stay! It was everything we could have wanted for four adults and a baby. Plenty of space and the views can’t be beaten! Easy walking distance to anything you would want to see. Would highly recommend to anyone!
Karen
Excellent stay, lovely apartment in a good location. Felt secure, came with parking spot. Great location, ( this apartment on the 6th floor, was with views from the front side building)which was our choice, the back is overlooking river. Walkable to all the city centre, local grocery shops in same street, on a bus route, and walkable to train station. Lovely furnishings, kitchen area great appliances, great master bedroom walk in shower, came with parking spot, would advise to check if booking diff apartment. Felt secure entering and leaving the building, very well-lit areas, and a lovely Christmas tree and decorations, made it more special, thank you.
Lovely apartment, great location, a few suggestions to make the stay more comfortable
We stayed for one week in early August. We arrived at 4pm (keys are collected and returned via a key safe near the entrance lobby) but unfortunately the apartment had not yet been cleaned or beds changed, it was also very hot and stuffy, so we opened the windows and the cleaners arrived a few minutes later, were apologetic and asked us to vacate until at least 5pm. When we returned the apartment was clean, it feels new, modern and tastefully appointed with artwork on the walls. The master bedroom with en-suite is the room which converts to twin beds so our two teenage sons took that room, whilst my husband and I took the second smaller bedroom with the double bed. This room is furnished to a minimal standard. Apart from the bed, there was a hanging rail, a set of narrow shelves and mirror. There are no bedside tables or lamps, meaning that spectacles, reading book, morning cup of tea etc. had to be put on the floor. The bathrooms are lovely, clean, great showers and plenty of hot water however the extractor fans did not come on and we would also suggest a bin and hooks to hang towels or other items on in each of the bathrooms. There is a utility room which we used to hang the towels to dry after use. The kitchen is very nice, well equipped, we did 'cook at home' on one occasion. Also we ate breakfast at the apartment and so would suggest cereal bowls. We didn't use the dishwasher and so a dish drainer would have been useful. As a previous reviewer said there is a very large TV with access to Netflix, however no Freeview TV so no digital channels. The main living space has floor to ceiling windows which give impressive views towards the Minster, however we found the room to be uncomfortably warm on occasions when the sun was shining as there are no window dressings in the living area (the bedrooms have black out curtains). The windows can be opened for ventiltion, but being in the city there is a lot of traffic noise. We did speak to York Stays about providing fans but they did not respond to our request. The apartment is really convenient for getting around York on foot, we loved walking around the city walls, and we also visited Fountains Abbey, Harrogate, Pickering and Dalby Forest, all of which were great. In summary the apartment is very nice and contempory, however a few finishing additions would help to make the stay a little more comfortable.
Excellent Stay
Great apartments, with all required equipment and more. Home from home. Would absolutely book with Stays and the Ryedale house apartments. The York House and Cityscape apartments were excellent and a big plus was the very comfortable beds in York House. Excellent friendly customer service. Thank you to Chris and team
A Great Getaway
This was a weekend away for my wifes significant birthday (We'll leave it there.) We were met by one of the representatives, who was a pleasant chap and he arrived with the keys and fobs. He took us up to the apartment and explained a few basics on the way. The apartment is in a great location. Literally a couple of hundred yards from the edge of the town centre with great local amenities. A Tesco express and Sainsbury local are within a five minute walk, fro those making it more of a self catering break. The apartment itself is fantastic. Ample parking exists behind a gated car park, for which you receive a fob and one space for your stay duration. The apartment is very well furnished and has everything to make it self contained. As you enter the building, there is an air of newness and this is highlighted further when you leave the lift at floor six and get the smell of the newly laid carpet. Energy efficient lighting comes on as you leave the lift, to light the way to your apartment. On entering, there is a long hallway with a bathroom to the right then the master bedroom and the second bedroom at the end. The master room has a fantastic en-suite with a drench shower, toilet and basin. The bedroom is of a good size and has a chest of drawers, a hanging rail with hangers and a dressing table. The only consideration here would have been a bedside table. The living room is brilliant. All glass walled, with fantastic views across York. A good size sofa and two chairs feature around a coffee table and a widescreen TV. Netflix is available, if you have an account. The pack stated that Freeview is available and whilst it was available to select, it didn't work and simply pixelated all of the time. The kitchen area is well equipped with cutlery, pans, cook books along with plenty of glasses and pottery. There is also a four seater dining table. There was a lovely welcome pack on the table with tea, coffee, biscuits and sachets of milk. My daughter loved the relaxer chair in the corner, where she could sit back and just take in the view. The second bedroom is again of good size and has ample storage for clothing and accessories. The only consideration here is that we requested this room to be set up as two beds but it was a king size bed that could not be split. Considerations for the property would be that we had a few crumbs on the living room rug, which the cleaning team should have attended to. We stayed in June 2021 and it was very warm. From what we could work out, there was heating only and no cooling. The TV needs the Freeview sorting out. We were asked to dispose of any rubbish prior to leaving the apartment. This was to be done via a rubbish chute in a utility room. Unfortunately, having tried for over an hour, the chute repeatedly showed "Busy" and could not be used. We therefore took our rubbish away with us. Finally, returning the keys. You do this by going to the town centre office and just posting them through. What we didn't realise was that the street is one of the very narrow ones, near the minster, with limited access. As such, parking is difficult. Perhaps a post back envopak system could be looked at or some kind of secure box in reception. Despite the minor hiccups above, we had a great time and would have no hesitation in staying here again or recommending to to others.
Donald - April 2024
A really amazing apartment in a great location. We've stayed here 3 times now, and will definitely return again.
Celeste - February 2022
This apartment is AMAZING! Modern, clean, spacious, fantastic views and ideally located - a short walk into the city and plenty of restaurants & cafes on the doorstep. Loved it - will definitely stay again.
Emma
Fantastic views and a lovely clean and comfortable apartment. We travelled with 2 young children (6 and 4) and it was perfect. A great location, we could walk everywhere. Thank you. We’ll be back soon.

Hidden Gem. The central location, parking, cleanliness , apartment views, apartment decor. I could go on and on! The premises were flawless even despite not having a TV in the bedrooms which I have been used to with all my life! Hand on my heart me nor anyone in my family missed not having a tv in the bedroom! Has to be One of the best mini breaks we have had!
