The Grand, York, is an iconic building. Originally

built as the headquarters for the North Eastern

Railway Company in 1906, it reflects the elegant

style of the period and the wealth of the company.

Today, The Grand is a landmark building that

makes an instant impression, beautifully combining

original period features with the luxury and

grandeur of a five-star hotel. As the domain of the

North Eastern Railway's directors, the seven flexible

event spaces that are used today create an inspiring

backdrop in the hotel's Conference Suite.

The Grand Ballroom is the largest room, featuring

magnificent oak panelling and two marble

fireplaces, it welcomes up to 120 delegates and is

an impressive setting for theatre-style events as well

as meetings. The Chairman's Suite is smaller in size

but is an imposing space with its original parquet

flooring and beautiful Edwardian windows.

In addition to the hotel's event organiser, there is

technical support available, the latest in audio

visual equipment and an award-winning restaurant.
