"At York’s heart and full of history, a memorable and atmospheric inn."
Overview
The Guy Fawkes Inn stands beside York Minster and was the birthplace of the notorious gunpowder plotter, Guido Fawkes. The inn offers stylish rooms furnished with antiques and Italian fabrics. Many rooms have views of the city or the courtyard. Adding to the atmosphere of this medieval inn are the gas lights and the real log fires. Dine by candlelight in the restaurant which serves traditional food. The bar stocks a wide range of real ales and a selection of wines. The world-famous Guy Fawkes Ghost Walk starts every night from just around the corner.

About the area
North Yorkshire, with its two National Parks and two designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is England’s largest county and one of the most rural. This is prime walking country, from the heather-clad heights of the North York Moors to the limestone country that is so typical of the Yorkshire Dales – a place of contrasts and discoveries, of history and legend.
