The Grand York

Enjoy a royal stay at The Grand York, formerly the Edwardian headquarters of the wealthy North Eastern Railway Company. Incredible facilities at this five-star hotel include an award-winning cookery school, an indulgent spa set in the hotel’s former underground vaults, traditional afternoon tea at the Rise Restaurant and the 1906 Bar (be sure to order a cocktail while you’re here). Better yet, the hotel’s central location means it is only a short amble to the main shopping streets and the Medieval tower walls.
