Experience the charm of York’s rich chocolate heritage with a stay at Flour Mill Studio, a stylish riverside apartment within the iconic Cocoa Suites development at historic Rowntree Wharf. Once one of the largest flour mills in Europe, this Grade II listed building has been thoughtfully transformed into modern apartments in a prime city-centre location.
This bright ground-floor studio is filled with natural light from its large riverside window, offering a peaceful retreat just a 5-minute walk from York’s historic centre. Pops of colour throughout the space add warmth and character, while the window seat provides the perfect spot for a morning coffee overlooking the river.
Inside, the apartment features a high-quality open-plan kitchen and living area with quartz worktops and everything you need for your stay. The studio layout includes a wall-mounted pull-down double bed and a bistro dining area for two, making it ideal for both short breaks and business trips. The fully tiled bathroom includes a modern walk-in shower.
Cocoa Suites

The location is easy to find and ten minutes walk to city centre. It is a clean,comfy and quiet stylish studio beside the river. Power shower and spacious enough to relax in property. The only thing that could be better is the oven and cooker. Couldn't get it working properly and didn't cook food well. Great everything else. Would recommend.
Great place to Stay
Week to visit family in York
Lovely studio overlooking a river!

I loved the fact that this clean and cute apartment with modern fixtures and fittings was in an old cocoa factory! The view out the window of the ducks, geese, and swans on the river was relaxing and charming. The kitchenette saved me money on eating all my meals out, and this was a great sanctuary to come back home to after a busy day in York. The building was quiet and you have the extra privacy of a door that shuts off the vestibule. Of course, many university students live around here and you can expect some street noise on the weekends. I would recommend it with two provisos: one, if you have mobility issues be advised there is no bus stop right nearby so you need a car, or taxi money. Plus the trek down the hallway to the suite is a long one. The stroll up to the city center is just about 15 or twenty minutes and it's all very picturesque, with pubs, restaurants, and shops along the way. There are also several grocery stores within walking distance. The second proviso is that when I was there, the internet kept cutting out. If you are relying on internet for online meetings or things like that, you might want to have a word with the managers first.
Definitely recommended.

Loved it.

Really nice property, easy to find and enter, good details from management company, location was amazing to walk to everything, loved the geese outside the window but they did make a racket sometimes, the property was in very good condition, we did struggle with the heating instructions but sussed it eventually, was concerned about the bed but it was big enough and comfortable, would love to return.

A lovely, cosy little apartment overlooking the water. Little touches like the welcome bag of goodies and the superbly outfitted little kitchen area made a huge difference. The location was great, bed was incredibly comfortable and the check-in was easy. Highly recommend!

Our studio flat was a perfect place to stay for a long weekend trip to York. The flat had all the essentials (and we were even gifted with a lovely goody bag upon arrival!). We found that the flat was a little bit difficult to find on the first day but once you know your way around it is in a fantastic location and only around a 5 minute walk to the famous Shambles! We found the bed slightly hard on the back but still does the job for a short stay. Would happily stay again :)

Nice stay and perfect place for a week away on business - everything you need. The flat is nicely situated for the city centre but also close to a couple of big grocery stores so very easy to supply the place if you need. A very nice river view (but fair warning the geese are occasionally loud in the morning! Definitely nothing the host can do about that :)
