The Hilton York is the ideal location from which to explore this historic city, with the Jorvik Viking Centre and Tudor Shambles a short walk away. With its comfortable bedrooms and with Tower’s, the exciting and contemporary Bar and Restaurant, offering not only excellent seafood and international cuisine but an outstanding view of Cliffords Tower, or American-style food in Henry J Bean's Restaurant and friendly service, it's the perfect base from which to explore York and its surrounding area. Car parking is on a first come first served basis.
Directions: 1 Mile away from York train station and frequent bus services near by or you can always get a taxi from the train station costing around £3. Right next to Cliffords Tower and Near Coppergate where you will find the Jorvik Viking Centre
I have no requirement to stay as I live locally but here is a photo and link to the hotels website. In my opinion this is one of Yorks best placed hotels - close to the river and museum quarter.
