The river rooms are best as there is alot of early morning traffic in the roadside rooms. Other than that the hotel and staff were great.

Novotel York Centre
Room was clean and staff were nice. Good breakfast selection. Was quite busy over Easter and the kids corner in the lobby is a great idea. We could only book the pool for 30min slots which was the only downside. The walk to the town from the back was much nicer.
