Malmaison York
York, United Kingdom

Malmaison turns a former insurance building into a contemporary hotel near Lendal Bridge. Bold bedrooms and the rooftop Sora restaurant give it a different feel from York’s older townhouse hotels, with a gym and ground-floor dining adding convenience. It works well for a sociable city break, especially if a drink with a view is part of the plan. Dinner-inclusive rates normally cover the main restaurant rather than Sora; check the details and ask about nearby building works before booking.
