With a strong pipeline of more than 100 properties, the opening continues Tapestry's expansion in high barrier-to-entry markets in Europe, where small boutique properties are looking for an engine to help them grow.
Patrick Fitzgibbon, senior vice president, development, EMEA, Hilton, said, "We are seeing growing demand for our lifestyle brands in the UK, as travellers increasingly seek out distinctive, locally inspired stays. The opening of Elmbank York, Tapestry Collection by Hilton underscores our commitment to providing truly unique, authentic experiences for guests, and we look forward to working closely with Cairn Hotel Group to bring this vision to life."

The Elmbank celebrates its Yorkshire roots through its thoughtfully designed and styled rooms, artwork, and signature details. Housed inside Elmbank's main house is one of the UK's finest Art Nouveau collections, featuring stunning stained glass, beautiful murals, and detailed stencils, carefully preserved to allow guests to immerse themselves in Art Nouveau history, whilst enjoying modern comforts and amenities.
Aneil Handa, director, Cairn Group, said, "We are thrilled to launch the first Tapestry Collection property in the North of England, continuing our longstanding relationship with Hilton.
