York Pavilion Hotel Celebrates 21st Birthday

“HOTEL WITH PERSONALITY”
THE BEST WESTERN YORK PAVILION
The York Pavilion Hotel, once entertained famous singers such as The Beatles and actors as the home of the honoured composer John Barry OBE, who is best known for composing the James Bond soundtracks.
The hotel was transformed into a classic Georgian House Hotel 21 years ago, when current owners Irene and Andrew Cossins bought the house from John Barry, who then moved to Hollywood!
The hotel is still full of personality and hints at its theatrical past with lavish decor, theatre posters from the past, a piano for entertainment and regular social evenings and celebrations. The hotel’s walls are also decorated with photographs of past special occasions and the owners take pride in keeping the hotel alive with a theatrical atmosphere.
To celebrate the 21st anniversary of the hotel in April, Andrew and Irene Cossins will be hosting a special evening for past guests, staff and supporters of the hotel to thank them for their continued help and support.
During the 21 years the hotel has continued to invest in the beautiful and imposing Georgian House and has extended its number of bedrooms and rooms for special events including weddings which take place in the hotel every week.
Irene Cossins said: “It does not seem long ago that we moved into a rather tired old house and started the long journey of development with the Hotel. We have assembled the best in the market to take the Hotel successfully into its next phase of the story.”

Aston Martin Collection at The Ramada Birmingham North

For more than forty years businessman Fred Pritchard has had a passion for business and Aston Martin cars.
Having become successful in business at a young age he just about managed to buy his very first Aston Martin at only 26 years old and now has more than 60 cars which are kept in two showrooms which are not normally open to the public to view.
Fred, who owns and manages a number of business in and around the Birmingham and Cannock area, would like provide an opportunity for other enthusiasts to view the cars which are held in two showrooms in Cannock, close to Birmingham.
One of the car showrooms is actually within the grounds of one of his businesses, The Ramada Hotel in Cannock, which is where car clubs and organised tours are invited to stay for the evening during their visit to the car showrooms.
The cars are available for an organised viewing during June, July and August and anyone wishing to take advantage of the offer to view the cars is asked to call the hotel to arrange their stay. The only cost for the stay will be a room at the hotel which is available at a discounted rate for anyone who is a member of a car club or who has a special interest in viewing the cars and would like to make special arrangements.
The four star hotel offers 96 bedrooms and a choice of bars and restaurants, http://www.ramadabirminghamnorth.co.uk/
