Best Boutique Hotels in York – there are some beautiful boutique hotels in York with stunning rooms, offering something different to the more discerning traveller.  Here are a few of our favourites:

Malmaison York

2 Rougier St, York YO90 1UU

The brand new Malmaison is another hotel with fabulous views of the Bar Walls and the Minster.  In one direction you are close to clubs and bars and in another direction you are a few minutes walk to the Theatre Royal, Betty’s Tea Rooms and some fabulous restaurants.  The Malmaison boats of stylish bedrooms, delicious dining and sassy cocktails.  What I am excited about is the Sky Bar at the top of the building which will have amazing views of the Minster and the rest of the city.

Grays Court

Chapter House St, York YO1 7JH

I have a great fondness for Grays Court as it was part of St John’s University when I studied there in the late Nineties.  I remember fondly my lectures in these beautiful rooms.  It has since been transformed into a boutique hotel with a fine dining restaurant.  They won the Visit England Award for Excellence 2020 for Small Hotel of the Year.   It’s very central with amazing views of the Minster on one side and the Bar Walls on the other.  There are lots of great restaurants and pubs on Goodramgate too.

“The rooms at Grays Court have been lovingly restored to provide a mix of ageless character and modern comfort. From the William IV poster bed of the Willoughby to the double monsoon shower in the Cumberland; delight in the luxury of a stay at Grays Court. From a wonderful family get away to a romantic weekend for two, we have something to suit every occasion.

Judges Court – Hidden Boutique Hotel in York

Coney St, York YO1 9ND

Judges Court is a 15 bedroom city centre townhouse “tucked away in a secret courtyard”, just off Coney Street, right in the very centre of York.  This isn’t one I have personally visited, but I would like to!  I love the look of the decor and it’s in such a fab location.  One of the Luxury King bedrooms was occupied by the honourable Sir William Chapple Knt. Judge of Assize during the trial that was to decide the fate of the legendary highwayman Dick Turpin in 1739.  Incidentally, you can visit Dick Turpin’s grave, just a ten minute walk from the hotel in a churchyard on Lead Mill Lane.
