It’s a good property but has hidden costs . The self parking gate is closed around check in time so that you choose valet parking for 35 pounds per day . Umbrellas are priced , breakfast is around 30 pounds per person etc . On an overall impression it’s a good property but has many dark patterns for making more money . Transparency is the key , which was missing

Breakfast is always amazing and lovely lady who seems to work every day shows you to a table . Tea and coffee made to order . The grand is having the spa renovated at present and there’s some disruption . The shower in my room smelt very stale and the room wasn’t ready at 3 pm check in . I love York and I know the Grand will resume normal service for next time .
