Tucked into two connected Gramercy brownstones, this nine-room inn charms with old-world décor, real metal house keys, beautiful linens, a tea room, and staff warm enough to welcome guests arriving at two in the morning, though a handful of recent visitors note it would benefit from some careful renovation to restore it fully to its former glory.
- New York, USA
The Sherry-Netherland achieves a distinctive warmth through its old-world service rituals, bellmen in elevators, staff who learn guests' preferences, impeccably timed housekeeping, combined with spacious residential-feeling rooms and a hushed, timeless atmosphere that feels more like a refined private refuge than a corporate hotel, though its ultra-luxury formality keeps it from the deepest cosiness.
- York, United Kingdom
Farthings is a charming York guesthouse where Helen and her team extend a warmly personal welcome, the locally sourced breakfasts draw consistent praise, and the well-appointed rooms, cosy beds, lovely furnishings, and a quiet residential setting just a ten-minute walk from the city, create a home-from-home atmosphere, though prospective guests should note that some rooms share bathroom facilities, which a handful of visitors have found a drawback.

With its thoughtfully themed rooms, including the whimsical Room 8¾ with its Minster views and Victorian bathtub, a lounge stocked with board games, a free hot drinks bar, a tuck shop, and breakfast hampers delivered to your door each morning, Minster Walk Guest House offers the kind of warmly personal, detail-rich stay that chain hotels simply cannot replicate, though prospective guests should note that room quality and noise levels can vary.
- New York, USA
Tucked down a graffiti-lined alley in the Lower East Side, this artsy boutique hotel wins hearts with its complimentary barista-made coffee and fresh pastries each morning, a courtyard garden perfect for quiet journaling, blissfully quiet and dark rooms with supremely comfortable beds, a sticker-covered lift, an on-site tattoo studio and instrument hire, a rooftop bar with sweeping Manhattan views, and staff, Tim, Courtney, and the whole team, whose warmth makes every return feel like coming home.
- York, United Kingdom
Tucked beside the River Ouse just a five-minute stroll from York's train station, this quietly positioned guesthouse wins hearts with its spotless, comfortable rooms overlooking the water, attentive hosts who mark up maps and leave personalised recommendations, and breakfasts stretching to Yorkshire sausages, Eggs Benedict, and locally made jams, all of it wrapped in the kind of unhurried, personal welcome that larger hotels rarely manage.
- York, United Kingdom
Tucked just outside York's ancient city walls within easy strolling distance of the Minster, Bootham Guest House wins hearts with its tastefully decorated, spotlessly clean rooms, thoughtful touches such as a welcome plate of fresh scones with butter and jam, a helpful in-room book of local tips, and a warmly hospitable host whose attentive yet unobtrusive manner makes guests feel thoroughly at home.
- New York, USA
From its wood-panelled lobby and curved Beaux-Arts archways, dimly lit in exactly the right way, to the pillow-top beds, clawfoot tubs sitting open in the grander rooms, Italian breakfasts at Cecconi's, and a rooftop bar with Manhattan views, The Ned NoMad offers considerable atmospheric richness, though a handful of guests found the service ranged from warmly professional to noticeably cool.
- New York, United States
The staff's warmth, from a welcoming check-in to attentive service throughout, combined with cavernous, characterful rooms overlooking a garden and a coffee bar serving custom cups, gives this Chelsea boutique hotel a relaxed, unhurried atmosphere that sets it apart from the city's cramped, impersonal alternatives, though lighter sleepers should note early-morning noise from the avenue outside.
- New York, United States
Tucked into the lively border of Little Italy and Chinatown, this small, well-kept hotel wins guests over with its tastefully designed rooms, complimentary coffee, tea, and morning croissants available throughout the day, a rooftop terrace with sweeping Manhattan skyline views, and a front-desk team whose attentiveness, from resolving late-night emergencies to posting forgotten belongings back to guests, leaves a lasting impression.
- New York, USA
The rooftop views, a fragrant lobby, a lively bar and restaurant, and staff whose warmth guests return for repeatedly make Arlo Midtown a spirited Midtown base, though compact rooms and occasional housekeeping lapses mean it suits those who prioritise location and atmosphere over spacious comfort.
- New York, United States
Perched steps from Union Square with subway lines at the door, this renovated hotel wins repeat visitors with its exceptional doormen, crisp bedding, corner rooms offering sweeping views across the park to One World Trade Center, and a lively atmosphere, though the bar service and breakfast options have occasionally left guests wanting more.
- York, UK
The Black Swan has the bones of a charming rural retreat with decent rooms and countryside views, but inconsistent, sometimes rude service and notably grubby bar areas, sticky tables, uncleaned carpets, and inattentive staff, undermine any sense of warmth or care that would make it truly cosy.
- York, United Kingdom
A well-kept, friendly little campsite on the outskirts of York, where level pitches, spotless heated shower facilities, and a warm welcome from helpful staff make for a thoroughly relaxed stay, with countryside views, a bus stop to the city right at the entrance, and an Indian restaurant a short walk away.
