Two major hotel groups have added properties in the UK city of York this month.
Premier Inn is opening its sixth hotel in the city in the coming days, with the unveiling of a property located on the site of a former Carpetright warehouse in the Layerthorpe area of the city.
Facilities include 188 rooms, Thyme Bar and Grill, and onsite parking charged at £15 for 24 hours.
The property features several sustainable initiatives including air source heat pumps, heat recovery ventilation systems, LED lighting, photovoltaic panels, and electric vehicle charging points.
Meanwhile the existing Elmbank Hotel – which has previously operated under Accor’s MGallery brand – has joined Hilton’s Tapestry Collection.
The 62-room hotel is located on The Mount overlooking the city’s Knavesmire Strays, and features Leetham’s Brasserie and Peacock Bar.
Elmbank York, Tapestry Collection by Hilton joins The Samuel Ryder Hotel in St Albans as the second UK property under the brand.
Hilton launched the Tapestry Collection brand in 2017, and currently has a portfolio of around 120 properties worldwide, with forthcoming developments including The Marcus Hotel Portrush in Northern Ireland.
