The Milner York is giving one lucky reader the chance to win an overnight stay for two with dinner included.
A brief stroll from York Railway Station and within sight of the magnificent York Minster, The Milner York is one of the North’s most celebrated hotel destinations.
Multi-award-winning and steeped in the city’s rich history, the hotel is the perfect base for corporate events and exploring York’s wealth of heritage, culture, and independent dining.
The hotel takes its name from William Milner, a York Station foreman who gave his life to save others during the Second World War – a legacy of courage that the hotel honours throughout its design and character. Originally opened in 1878, the Grade II listed building is a striking example of Victorian architecture, designed by William Peachey of the North Eastern Railway. Its sweeping central iron staircases, soaring original ceilings, and viewing galleries are a testament to that era’s ambitious spirit. Today, those period features have been seamlessly woven with contemporary comforts, resulting in 155 elegant bedrooms and suites decorated in balanced, neutral tones.
At Peachey’s Bar & Grill, guests can enjoy modern British dining that celebrates the finest ingredients Yorkshire has to offer, from the signature Milner Yorkshire Burger to the house Peachey’s cocktail. The Swollen Gambler, opposite York Station, offers a relaxed setting for craft ales, cocktails, and casual bites, while The Garden Room provides sweeping views across manicured lawns towards York Minster and serves the hotel’s signature chocolate afternoon tea, inspired by York’s celebrated chocolate- making heritage.
The hotel is equally well placed for events, with 10 versatile spaces and a purpose- built event centre accommodating up to 400 delegates – making it one of York’s most sought-after venues for corporate gatherings, conferences, and celebrations. For delegates looking to unwind, there is a fully equipped gym, a 13-metre swimming pool, jacuzzi, steam room, and sauna.
Blending undeniable elegance with centuries of history, The Milner York is a true reflection of the city itself – a place where heritage meets modern luxury in the heart of one of England’s finest cities.
