"The garden has exclusive access to the wall which surrounds the inner city of York, a beautiful area to just sit and relax."
"The building is stunning and full of history with beautiful gardens and places to relax."
"This property is a gem right in the heart of York, a stone's throw from the Minster."
Historic Accommodations with Views
Grays Court Hotel offers 12 individually designed en-suite bedrooms, including the Cumberland room with a free-standing bathtub and views of the city walls, Edwards with a split-level layout and copper bath, and Willoughby featuring a William IV four-poster bed. Rooms include Clarins toiletries, soundproof walls, flat-screen TVs, and tea/coffee facilities. Views encompass York Minster, the cobbled courtyard, and the city walls.
Garden-to-Table Dining
The Bow Room Restaurant serves a six-course tasting menu using produce from the hotel's kitchen garden, including heritage Yorkshire cultivars like Ribston Pippin apples. The Long Gallery offers lunch daily with seasonal Yorkshire produce. Breakfast is cooked-to-order each morning for all guests. The bar serves craft beers, wines, and cocktails made with garden-grown ingredients.
Gardens and Historic Spaces
The hotel features half an acre of gardens with views of York Minster and the city walls, containing both decorative and edible planting. The Jacobean Long Gallery has an open log fire, original paintings, and French doors leading to a terrace. The cobbled courtyard has pollarded plane trees leading to the entrance.
Central York Location
Grays Court Hotel is located on Chapter House Street, between York Minster and the city walls. It is 1 km from York Station and 55 km from Leeds Bradford Airport. The hotel is a 5-minute walk from The Shambles, York Castle Museum, and Jorvik Viking Centre. Goathland Station (Harry Potter's Hogsmeade) is accessible via the North York Moors Historical Railway.
Event and Guest Services
The hotel offers private dining, wedding coordination, and meeting spaces in the Long Gallery and Minster rooms. Limited on-site parking is available for £20 per night with advance reservation. The nearest car park is Monk Bar, a 5-minute walk away. The hotel composts kitchen waste for garden fertilization and uses energy-efficient LED lighting throughout.
“The history here is palpable-direct access to York's City Walls makes it more than just a stay. Dining elevates the experience with a kitchen garden focus and tasting menus, though some rooms perhaps reflect character over contemporary luxury for the price. Still, the personalized service and setting next to York Minster create an intimate, memorable base.”
