to get started.

Wonderful old Edwardian 1906 building...train headquarters originally...renovated as hotel in 2007. Public spaces still Edwardian grand...rooms, suites, and bathrooms very modern, large and luxurious . Excellent service from the entire staff. Concierge Graham Hatch was most helpful and informative on arrival. On request, recommended fabulous restaurant Arras and booked a taxi for us

The hotel is beautiful, located very close to the train station and close to all the major attractions in York. The room was comfortable and spacious and the staff were mostly fabulous.

An excellent hotel in a great location. We stayed in the recently built part of the hotel which was very nicely finished. The stylish reception gives you an idea of the overall standard of the hotel.

Sumptuous comfort and class. Room service was excellent, rooms were spacious and bed was excellent. Bathroom, large and clean. Breakfast in the restaurant was amazing and access to excellent spa facilities finished it off.

Gemma

Beautiful historic hotel but with thoroughly modern rooms and steps away from the train station and a very short walk to the Shambles and York Minster. Far and away my best hotel find on this trip to the UK.

The Grand is probably the most elegant hotel I have ever stayed in, honestly. We booked a twin bed room for my son and myself, and it was extremely spacious! The bathroom had a shower and a separate bathtub, of all things. The hotel staff were very attentive and friendly, and the building itself is gorgeous. Just as an aside, they have an Apiary from which they get their own honey--you can see the bees through the glass near the elevators. We did not eat in the restaurant, but the small lounge area was a nice place to get a drink and relax in a comfy chair after a long day of sightseeing. The hotel is only steps from the train station, so you needn't get a taxi--just trundle your suitcase down a small cobbled walkway, and you're there. All in all, a wonderful experience. I can't imagine staying anywhere else in York--I hope to go back at some point!

Spa was full of kids making noise earlier on but quietened down a little later. Breakfast in bed doesn’t come with anything to actually sit on the bed so one of you ends up playing waiter with the trolley they leave. We were in the new building in an Executive Suite and you can hear the bars/clubs through the windows. We’d been out so it wasn’t such a big deal but I didn’t expect that considering it’s so expensive a night.
