Luxurious, romantic and in the heart of the city of York
New to Spabreaks.com, The Spa at The Grand York is a five-star hotel in Yorkshire that offers the perfect fusion of heritage and modern style. It's little wonder that this retreat has won a catalogue of awards for its hospitality and its beauty. From the cookery school to the spa, here's what you need to know.
The Grand York hotel is a five-star destination that's appropriately named given its combination of heritage and modern style. When you stay here you have a choice of rooms and suites, ranging from Classics to Grand Family rooms, Penthouse Suites to a Grand Studio Apartment. In short, while it's a romantic destination, it's a hotel that caters to everyone.
The spa is very much a modern addition to the hotel, decorated in contemporary style, and with facilities that are designed to guide you through your relaxation experience. Located in the hotel's former vaults, it's seductive and secluded, complete with a gym, pool, whirlpool, aromatic steam room, Nordic dry sauna, a relaxation lounge and five treatment rooms where therapists use TEMPLESPA products.
Food and drink are always a pivotal point of any getaway, and dining at The Grand attracts people from far and wide. The Rise Restaurant is particularly well known for their eight-course tasting menu, and are dedicated to sustainability when it comes to ingredients. The 1906 Bar is also charming, serving inventive cocktails as well as bubbly classics.
Given the hotel's foodie credentials, it's fitting that it has its own cookery school. A popular experience for corporate groups or friends, they offer one off classes as well as longer courses, for everyone from novices to aspiring chefs.
In addition to the hotel's own attractions, we can't finish our review without mentioning the location. York is an exceptionally beautiful city with lots to see, do and feel inspired by. Even a wander around is a joyful experience, and The Grand York is perfectly located in the heart of it all.
