The Grand, York

5.0 star property
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (1094)
"The property was lovely. The bar and food were amazing. I didn't notice an 'upgrade' on the room, it was a nice king size room, but the shower was very low pressure. There was no breakfast included which was a shame given the price, plus the spa access is only for 1hr (which includes getting ready afterwards) which for someone disabled isn't much time to enjoy the spa facilities. Overall, I would recommend the hotel as the location and restaurant/bar made it 5 stars!"

"This was a really nice stay. The staff were welcoming, the foyer is really modern and it was nice to sit and have a drink. The rooms, had some small stains on the carpet and very thin duvets, but apart from that, they were roomy and comfortable. It did miss a bath though, which was needed after a long day walking. Breakfast was plentiful and had lots of options and was not overcrowded. I would definitely stay again on a return visit. "
