Hotels in York

[Boglins]

Looking for a fancy pants hotel for DH's 40th, budget fairly high as we're going all out for one night, would like it to be in the centre and have a decent restaurant (although we're not wedded to eating there if anyone has restaurant recommendations!).

Any personal favourites?

The Grand or Hotel du vin.
Enjoy!!

The Principal. Very handy for the station. Ginormous beds.

Go to the Railway Museum while you're there.

Grays Court is lovely - beautiful building, incredible views of the Minster and although it’s in the centre, it’s quite tucked away.

(But I haven’t stayed overnight there, just had afternoon tea)

Thanks everyone, will have a look at all of these! Ginormous beds is a big plus point! We bought a super king size during lockdown 1 and I've got used to being outside of touching distance!

The Grand is lovely. Went for a joint birthday celebration with friends and I don’t know whether our rooms were standard or not but they were huge. Spa facilities and a pool too. Oh and the cookery school looks fabulous.

Grays Court is gorgeous and very central, Hotel Di Vin nice and also The Lawrance Apartments are great, I booked that for my 40th and got one with three bedrooms and a kitchen/lounge.
If you like veggie food Roots by Tommy Banks is beautiful.

I stayed at the Grand a few years ago, it was lovely. One of the receptionists was quite snooty though and tried to charge us for a breakfast that we didnt have, and didnt believe me at first when i contested :S

I loved The Churchill - it's more boutique and very handy location

Malmaison is opening soon, depending on when you are planning to go, might be an option?

We also like Grays Court - stayed there a couple of times - great location.

I liked the Grand.

I prefer Churchill over Hotel di vin.

Thanks all, I have booked The Grand as it ticked all the boxes!

Enjoy. I’m so jealous, I miss child free weekends. I can’t wait I until my girls are older and we have family weekends away.

The Grand. 100%. Luxury. Excellent.
