Interior designer firm, Michaelis Boyd is creating a new sense of style and modernity with loft-style bedrooms that are bold and contemporary whilst bringing the listed interiors to life.
The refurbished Grand Room is now open and one of the finest and biggest hotel event space in the North of England and a new destination bar and restaurant will complete the transformation in the summer.
The property includes grand public spaces and multiple event venues, including an art deco room accommodating up to 1,000.
