NORTH Yorkshire is home to some luxurious hotels- and we have used Booking.com to find some of the most high-end in the region.
Every hotel on this list has five stars, decadent rooms and enviable amenities which add a touch of luxury to your getaway.
A spokesperson for Booking.com said: “Our platform caters to all and weekend getaways are a great way to break up routines and make incredible memories in a short space of time!
“In the current climate, some travellers may wish to indulge a little more when it comes to their trips away- especially given that many of us have been booking trips closer to home in light of the current restrictions and therefore, saving money on other travel costs such as flights and transfers.
“Therefore, we may see people investing in more lavish accommodation than they would historically, and treating themselves to somewhere a bit higher in budget”.
Here are five luxury hotels in North Yorkshire:
The Grand, Station Rise, York
This is regarded as one of the most grandeous hotels in York.
It’s hard to believe that the Grade II listed building used to be a railway headquarters as its interiors are now so much more luxurious.
The hotel has a luxury vaulted spa with a pool, hot tube, sauna and steam room.
Guests have a choice of regular rooms, or more decadent suites.
The Penthouse Suite is described as the “ultimate in luxury”- it is beautifully designed with plenty of space, a separate lounge area and a roll top bath.
Best of all, guests in this room get to enjoy views of York’s skyline.
