Staying at the Grand Hotel in York, England was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The moment we stepped into the majestic lobby, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a sense of grandeur. The room was elegantly appointed, boasting luxurious amenities and breathtaking views of the historic city. The hotel's impeccable service exceeded our expectations at every turn, from the attentive staff who catered to our every need to the exquisite dining options that tantalized our taste buds. Whether enjoying afternoon tea in the elegant lounge or savoring a gourmet meal at the hotel's restaurant, each culinary experience was a culinary delight. The central location of the Grand Hotel allowed us to easily explore York's charming streets, iconic landmarks, and rich history. After a day of sightseeing, we relished the opportunity to unwind in the hotel's spa, indulging in rejuvenating treatments that left us feeling refreshed and revitalized. Overall, our stay at the Grand Hotel was nothing short of exceptional. The combination of luxurious accommodations, impeccable service, and prime location made it a truly memorable experience. We cannot wait to return and create more cherished memories at this remarkable establishment.

Apart from the Hotel Grand York asked for reserving 50 GBP in a credit card (on which didn't release this blocking yet even after 2 weeks pass by, the hotel is good in terms of hospitality. The luggage storage is professional. The location is very good (in a walking distance from the train station and major attractions).

Lovely building, disappointing communication
This is a beautiful hotel in a historic building has been attractively (albeit, slightly confusingly) extended with a modern “executive” wing. Sandra on reception when we arrived were warm and polite. We were offered a room in the new wing for an additional £40. I wish we had not bothered - the “view” was predominantly of an ugly rooves and air conditioning units. The beds were also hard as rocks - I did not sleep well. When I mentioned this the next morning to reception they didn’t make any effort to fix it or even apologise. Our room didn’t get serviced either - I had to call for this to be done. For nearly £230 a night - I expected far better. When I booked in a session at the spa, they neglected to tell me there would be a lifesaving lesson taking place in the pool. Cue a man screaming instructions to people in the pool in the very small spa area, so you could hear it everywhere, including in the sauna and stream rooms. Not relaxing at all. I passed this back at check out - a very half-hearted “sorry” - the reception staff didn’t look surprised. The last point was that it took nearly a week for them to refund the £100 hold they put on my card. When I called to enquire about it, I was given short shrift and patronisingly told that “in the UK it can take up to 5 working days for a refund”. Yes, I have an accent, but I’ve lived in the UK for 23 years, so I know it’s possible for things to move more quickly than that. I’ll be staying elsewhere in York next time.

As the only 5 star hotel in York. There is a level of service and accommodation you expect. The Grand exceeded all of these expectations from the start of your stay the porter bringing your luggage to your room. All staff are friendly and knowledgeable always a smile on their faces. The 1906 bar is amazing so much choice drinks wise and the comfiest chairs. The rise restaurant for breakfast or dinner is delectable good vegan choices as well.
