This is country town accommodation. It is clean and comfortable and a good standard. York is a beautiful Western Australian historic town, neat, tidy, a safe environment with very friendly people, about 100km from Perth. Very relaxed.

This place could be really good. Our room was clean and good value for money but the welcome, check in and directions to the room was less so. Shame as it is a really good spot and could be so much more.

Jolly stay.
Cute little spot for a single night’s stay. Property is a little dated but the room was perfect for our needs, with working aircon and a nice hot shower. Price reflects what you get and is fair.

Husband woke up with sore shoulders from the hard mattress, either the airconditioner was set to not heat or we weren't using it correctly. During the night we could hear the guy in the next room snoring!! Its a nice old hotel and there was an excellent band playing on the Saturday night. 🙂

Response from Stacey - Settlers House York on 26 May,2023
We're sorry to hear that the mattress wasn't to your liking, feel free to request a different room if booking in the future. We did find that the air-conditioner was set on cool instead of heat, however we also found the controller wasn't very clear and we have ordered a replacement, thanks for letting us know. Sorry to hear the neighbour was so loud, but we're glad that you liked our hotel and the local band we had playing :)

Great location, heritage room was fantastic, well appointed and included microwave, kettle, toaster and fridge. Great value for money. Shower was hot. We stayed in room 19 and I would highly recommend staying there, tucked away well. Only downside is due to very reasonable costs, the place was overrun with a wedding party which decided to disrupt everyone for a few hours. Other then that, place is very good value for money. Heritage weekend was full of things to do.

It was great that it was in the centre of town, restaurant on premises. Great coffees. Good beds in room. What was not so great - lukewarm water for shower, mouldy shower cubicle, no table in room. Problem with ants in the room. Food at restaurant was bland and tasteless.

Dont ever accept room 69. Its right next to an air conditioning duct of some sort which is so noisy it kept me awake all night with its clattering. On top of that i wasnt offered any assistance with getting my luggage and touring bicycle up and down some long and very steep stairs (no lifts) to room 69 on the upper floor. Im a 73 year old female so that was quite a struggle! Receptionist said I was lucky to get a room...I was lucky to be paying for a substandard room which should not be sold to anyone wanting to sleep...what's lucky about that? Receptionist obviously hasnt done the customer relations refresher course. Im hoping I dont fall down the stairs getting my bike out. Perhaps they need someone to make a compensation claim on their public liability policy to remind them that their patrons are perhaps a tiny bit important to their business. I will not stay here again.

The room we booked into was part of the old building, it felt damp and was very dated. We had no hot water for the weekend so had to walk to another room to shower. Accomodation was a bit of a let down.

Good Stay.
We had a room that faced the road but this made our access with bags very easy and there was no problem with noise. Rooms were a little cramped but the toaster provided was much appreciated for a quick breakfast. Very short walk through the property to the restaurant. The food was good but very limited for my husband who is a coeliac.

The smell of cigarette (or otherwise) in room 55 was overwhelming. We opened the window when we checked in and thought this would clear the smell but when returning after dinner the smell was still overwhelming. We tried to report this to reception but they were closed. We reported this to housekeeping in the morning but it was an unpleasant sleep.

Lovely, quiet affordable hotel stay with our 10 year old son. York was a nice spot for us to explore and Settlers House was right in the thick of it all. The room was just what we needed, clean, comfortable and just the right amount of room for 3. Dishes, utensils, kettle, microwave oven, toaster fridge and freezer meant we had choice to go out stay. Service was friendly and check in was easy. Didn't get a chance to try the restaurant this trip, but we'll be able to do that next time. Great getaway experience.

We are sorry to hear that you had this happen during your stay. We were not made aware of any issues to be able to try and rectify for you. We can't always control what guests do, and also being a strata complex not all of the people staying are booked with us, but we would always do our best to try and make sure those guests are not impacting your stay with us.

My wife has mobility issues and I had not realised that we had been allocated an upstairs room until we arrived. However, when we checked in, Linda, the duty manager, immediately offered us the use of the special needs room instead. Great customer focus. We will be back.

The house was old fashioned in look which gave me a sense of what it would have looked like in the 1800’s when the town was first built. I loved that and the staff were really friendly which made my husband and I feel at home and relaxed. We would definitely stay again.
