The Grand, York, hotel in York

The 5-star Grand Hotel offers stylish rooms and a luxury vaulted spa.

The location is excellent - you're so close to everything and the NCP car park is also super close. The room was very large with high ceilings and the bathroom(s) were also very nice. Having the opportunity to experience the spa was also really nice. The staff were really welcoming and friendly - there was nothing that was too much for them. The bar staff were also really lovely and knowledgeable. There's also aircon in the rooms which became very much appreciated; in warm weather, being on the second floor in an old building definitely gets warm!

FAQs about hotels in York









England Through The Ages

Although abounding in reminders of the past, York is very much a city for the here and now, with excellent shops, bars and restaurants, many along the River Ouse. Surrounding it are the medieval city walls – the longest and best preserved in England – and many of the gates that once allowed access to the city.

Walk the walls for wonderful views towards the city and towering York Minster. Standing proud on a hill, this cavernous church is the seat of the Archbishop of York, the 2nd highest position in the Church of England.

A little south is The Shambles, a narrow street with medieval buildings that now house quaint shops. Going further back in time is the Jorvik Centre, a fascinating museum showcasing the city’s Viking remains. You can even have a go at archaeology yourself at the DIG excavation pits, with replica finds from York’s Roman, Viking, medieval and Victorian eras.

Other York attractions include the National Railway Museum, home to the Flying Scotsman and Mallard trains. Around 30 minutes’ drive away is Castle Howard, a stately home with over 1000 acres of grounds.

Leeds-Bradford Airport is the nearest airport, and there is a great range of hotels, B&Bs and guest houses in York and the outskirts available on Booking.com.

    York is bursting with fascinating places.

    York is bursting with fascinating places. There’s ancient architecture and historical interest around every corner and the main places to see are all to be found within a fairly compact, pedestrian friendly centre. A huge range of food and drink is on offer and the locals seem (justifiably) proud of their beautiful city and its rich history.

    I would say to make sure you wear comfortable shoes because there are cobbled streets. It is quite crowded mid morning on so I would suggest walking around early if you want to get a good look. The shops will be open later...

    Bit of both worlds - of course there is the modern with the usual shops but there is another side too. The Shambles is like stepping back into Harry Potter and the ramparts which can be walked around are just fantastic. Then there is the Minster but do walk there if possible as parking pretty horrendous as you might expect. Museums and galleries to explore and if your better half doesn't go for all the history stuff then leave them in the coffee houses and vast array of shops and meet back up later. Easy to get around if you don't mind walking a bit and often uphill ( well slight inclines anyway). The bridges are lovely too and make easy muster points. Have a drive around the surrounding countryside too - Beverley and Pocklington and Stamford Bridge - all easy driving and well worth that day out. Just lovely.

    York is an absolute must.

    York is an absolute must. Out of 9 cities in the UK over 2.5 weeks, it is in our top 2-3. It is full of history, character, and uniqueness you will not find anywhere else. The Minster was our favorite (even over Westminster). We loved walking the cobble streets, the Shambles, shopping, pubs, restaurants, the Wall, learning of the significant pivotal history York was. We will be back!

    A walk around the walls. The railway museum was brilliant. The Treasurer's House (NT) was very interesting with a lovely cafe and garden. Both cafe and garden can be visited without paying the entrance fee. Evensong at the Minster was lovely and the interior as beautiful as the outside. York is a great place to amble around, nice shops, lots of good places to eat and drink. Second visit to Little Italy and the food was delicious. Interesting architecture.

    Extremely modern, comfortable, clean hotel, slap bang in the heart of York city centre. A Tesco Express is a very short walk from the hotel, which is very handy for snacks or drinks for the room, but the hotel does have these available if needs be. The room itself was so clean, and looked newly renovated. It included a mini fridge which was unexpected but a lovely touch. I slept so well on the bed, and the complimentary breakfast buffet in the morning was so impressive. They even had a waffle making station! Wow. I’ll be back.

He helped us to park at the accommodation and allowed us early entry into our room, he offered advice on the local area and best things to go and see with lots of history too! The hotel was quiet with the other guests and was in the most perfect location for York City centre. Would highly recommend booking here for your stay in York. Thank you!

    We chose this hotel because of the good reviews and location and on site parking, unfortunately the only room available was a twin, best nights sleep I've had since we were married, the beds were so comfortable, room was a decent size en suite with everything you needed, even a fridge and small freezer compartment. And a fan. Really nice cooked breakfast in the morning. 10 min walk to the Minster and city centre. Staff were really welcoming and helpful, we will definitely book here again next time we come to York.

    Good location. Walking distance from most of York’s sights. Good, comfortable and clean connecting rooms. They arranged that for us as a family. Very helpful staff especially Tom who helped us with our bags when I had broken my ribs at this hotel in an accident and helped us load them into our car. Reception staff was responsive and quick. And kind to also enable as late a check out as possible despite running full capacity, because I had a fresh fracture and could not move freely.

I would have preferred it starting slightly earlier but I appreciate most don't get up early at the weekend. All the staff were very friendly and accommodating so that is a real plus.
