Built in 1906 as the headquarters of the North Eastern Railway, The Grand, York is a striking example of early 20th-century architecture. Designed by William Bell and Horace Field, the building showcases elegant marble interiors, oak-panelled rooms, and the majestic Grand Boardroom.
A cherished landmark in the heart of Yorkshire, The Grand was lovingly restored to its original splendour in 2010. Today, it stands as an award-winning five-star hotel, welcoming guests with the warmth, charm, and character of true Yorkshire hospitality.
