BREAKFAST at York’s Dean Court Hotel has been given a top accolade.

The four-star hotel in the shadow of York Minster was recently one of only 169 hotels in the country to be given VisitEngland’s new Breakfast Award for the high quality and wide choice of breakfast in its DCH restaurant.

It has now won the Best Western hotel chain’s Best Breakfast Award. The £200 prize is being shared among the hotel’s breakfast staff.
