Impossible Motel
York, United Kingdom · ★ 4.4 Exceptional B.Booking.com 8.8
Hot tub on a private balcony overlooking York's roofline. Steam, quiet, and champagne at 8.8/10.
There's something about stepping into hot water on your own balcony in York. The steam rises. The city's chimneys and rooflines sit beyond the hedging. You're nowhere and somewhere at once. Impossible Motel has two rooms with a hotel with a private in-room hot tub in York: the Stella Solarium (Signature Double) and Sir Joseph Terry (Luxury Room). Both tubs sit on private balconies, properly screened. The water's hot, the night's quiet, and you can stay in there as long as you like. It's the sort of thing that sounds small until you're actually doing it.

Questions, answered
Can you see York from the hot tub?+
Yes. The balcony overlooks the roofline and chimneys beyond the hedging, so you've got a real sense of being in the city while you're in the water.
Which room should I book if I want the hot tub?+
Either the Stella Solarium (Signature Double) or Sir Joseph Terry (Luxury Room). Both have private balcony hot tubs. Pick based on what suits your budget and room style preference.
Which part of York gives the best views from an in-room hot tub?+
Properties just outside the city walls or tucked into the Vale of York countryside tend to trade the cobbled-street buzz for open sky and birdsong, which suits a long soak rather well. If you want to be closer to the Shambles and the Minster, look for suites in the city's Georgian townhouse conversions, where the architecture does the heavy lifting.
What's the best time of year to book a hot tub suite in York?+
Late autumn and winter are genuinely compelling here: the city's Christmas market draws crowds to the streets, but your tub stays private and the contrast between cold air and warm water is hard to beat. Spring is quieter and often cheaper, with prices at the lower end of the €194 to €302 nightly range.
