A York hotel has undergone a multi-million refurb as it rebrands to join the international Hilton chain.
Elmbank, which is located on the Mount and overlooks Knavesmire Strays, has become part of the Tapestry Collection by Hilton- marking the arrival of the brand in the city.
The 62-bed hotel was originally built in the 19th Century as a family-owned mansion noted for hosting lavish parties.
The refurbishment has seen the creation of accessible rooms, adjoining rooms and family rooms and suites aimed at groups, families and friends.
