Today, we visit Leeds, the unofficial capital of Yorkshire. Home to a thriving arts scene, a rich sporting heritage and a renowned retail destination, you will discover a city packed with variety and excitement. After some free time, we travel to our hotel to get ready to dance "All Night Long" at the Soul & Motown tribute night with live performances and disco.<br />
After breakfast, we head to the walled city of York, a truly unique destination steeped in history. Dive into York's rich history and heritage, from the ancient walls of Roman York to the Viking remains of JORVIK and the grandeur of Georgian York. You'll find a vivid food and drink scene and various independent shops off the beaten track. Offering more attractions per square mile than any other destination in the UK, you're always only a short walk from one of York's awe-inspiring offerings.
This city-centre hotel offers opulent Victorian surroundings with modern-day comforts and unlimited free high-speed WiFi. A stay in this hotel is a uniquely relaxing experience. Step back into the ambience of an era long gone, including spacious bedrooms, opulent ballrooms and an excellent restaurant.
