The hotel is very well located and particularly handy for the train station. The exterior was imposing as was reception but I felt some of the interior was a little tired e.g the chair in the bar I was sitting on had the stuffing hanging out of a hole in the fabric on the arm. Our room on floor 3 was large with separate rooms for bathroom and toilet and a large bedroom. Unfortunately this room only had one very small window so it was quite dark even though it was a gloriously sunny day and some of the furniture was a little bit tired. There was a nice gesture of a birthday card for my wife and a little plate with 4 chocolates in the room on arrival and my wife was offered a complimentary birthday drink in the bar. All the staff we had contact with were very pleasant and friendly. The breakfast this morning was very good and even though very busy the staff member managing table seating was super efficient and friendly as were the table and kitchen staff. Would I choose to stay there again…. I’m not sure.

We stayed for 3 nights. Arrived 30 minutes late as our plane left Dubai nearly 3 hours later than scheduled. Dinner had been booked, staff at reception advised the restaurant. Meals were amazing, we both had steaks. Reception very inviting and clean, rooms clean. The doormen always spoke and helped with baggage as well as directions when needed. Walking distance to everything York has to offer. Would highly recommend staying at The Grand York. 10/10

The plumbing system is either old or not well maintained. The water in the bath tub and sinks takesca while to drain out leaving a residue behind. The taps are a little hard to operate. Our international adapters did not work in the electric sockets even though they were perfect in London. The hotel had none to offer. The breakfast is elaborate but you can get a great one at half price at a 5 minute walk. Disappointed.

Really lovely welcome on arrival. The room was nice and big, a little dated but nice all the same. Very clean. It was my husband's 50th so they left some nice chocolates in the room as a gift which was nice, and they gave him a birthday badge. The breakfast was the most delicious breakfast I've ever had at a hotel. It was perfect to celebrate my husband's birthday and the staff are really friendly.

Stayed here a number of years ago. This was a special trip for my 50th. My wife emailed the hotel to let them know about my birthday. On arrival, we went to our suite, in all honesty it was very disappointing. The room was souless, the pictures on the walls, badly working carpet. Like a very large travelogue room.
