Hotels in Acaster Malbis

Acaster Malbis has no hotels of its own, but its location just five miles south of York means visitors are never far from somewhere to stay. York itself offers everything from budget and mid-range chain hotels to characterful boutique guesthouses and townhouse hotels, many within the historic city walls and a short drive or cycle from the village. Staying in York gives easy access to the Minster, the Shambles and the city's restaurants, while still allowing a quiet riverside walk or cycle out to Acaster Malbis and along the Ouse towpath during the day. Villages closer to Acaster Malbis, such as Bishopthorpe and Naburn, also have a small number of guesthouses and bed and breakfasts for those who prefer a quieter, more rural base. Wherever you stay, the flat terrain of the Vale of York makes it easy to combine a comfortable overnight stay with cycling or walking along the river the next day. Because the village itself is so small, most visitors treat Acaster Malbis as a day trip or a riverside stop on a longer route rather than a base for a whole stay, so it is worth checking availability and location carefully around York, particularly during busy summer weekends and York race days when the city's accommodation fills up quickly.
