Welcome to the Grand, a unique hotel in a unique city. Its rich, 100 year history gives it an atmosphere quite unlike anywhere else; luxurious yet cosy, refined yet welcoming. With stunning views of the Minster and the city’s ancient walls The Grand, York enjoys an enviable location as York’s only five star hotel.
Built in 1906 as one of the great railway buildings of York, the original features weren’t just retained when the Grade II building was remodelled as a hotel; they were brought back to life. This graceful Edwardian architecture is complemented with views of the historic Roman Walls. Each of the 207 rooms and suites are individually designed and furnished to an extremely high specification, including the exclusive Penthouse Suite with panoramic views of the city, whilst the hotel's spa is based in the vaults of the building, once home to millions of pounds belonging to the railways.
The Grand, York has a strong reputation for it’s first-class service with stylish surroundings, and with a choice of two restaurants and the 1906 bar. Choose from the more relaxed Rise Restaurant and Bar with a lively atmosphere and outdoor terrace or the brand new 'Legacy' fine dining restaurant where you can find a nine course tasting menu.
Enjoy an indulgent yet unpretentious environment for both leisure and business travellers alike – Some people visit York’s landmarks……others stay in them. The Grand was voted the best city hotel in England in 2019.
The Cookery School: The Grand’s state-of-the-art cookery school hosts over 40 different classes. With 16 work stations, a connecting meeting space, a dining area and an outside terrace, it’s perfect all year round. Sharpen up your cookery skills and enjoy a unique experience, or plan the dreaded team building activity.
