Room 8: The Silver Jubilee

The Sidings Hotel - Room 8

Get ready to journey back in time with our exclusive Four-Poster Bedroom at The Sidings! Tucked away in a sympathetically modernised Pullman carriage, this room marries the grandeur of the past with the comforts of the present.

As soon as you step inside, you’re greeted by the rich, dark wood features that are characteristic of Pullman trains, beautifully varnished to bring a touch of elegance. The pièce de résistance is the majestic four-poster bed, promising a unique and luxurious sleep experience.

But the magic doesn’t stop there! This room offers a front-row seat to the captivating East Coast train line, where you can watch and listen to trains as they whisk by. Situated amidst the peaceful North York countryside, yet only a short car ride from the bustling city centre of York, our location offers the best of both worlds.

Whether you’re a railway enthusiast or a lover of unique accommodation, our Four-Poster Bedroom is a ticket to an unforgettable stay.
