GF Hotels & Resorts Proudly Announces the Grand Re-Opening of The Yorktowne Hotel, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
Located in the heart of Downtown York near popular Harrisburg, Gettysburg, Hershey, and Lancaster, this magnificent property features 123 guestrooms with 27 luxury long-term stay suites and over 10,000 square feet of flexible meeting space to host events from corporate functions to extravagant weddings.
The hotel features a complete redesign of the building's interior, with signature amenities and the latest technology, including the Stewart Companies Room for private dining, the WellSpan Ballroom, and The Graham Rooftop Lounge offering over 4,500 square feet of a beautiful panoramic view. Improvements continued with a well-equipped state-of-the-art fitness center featuring Peloton and The Davidson Lobby Bar and dining room.
After the team began to connect with the local community and business leaders, it became evident that everyone had a "Yorktowne Story." Whether it be from a York resident speaking of their grandparent's wedding ceremony in the Ballroom or memories of their prom from the 70s, the initial tagline became "Everyone Has A Yorktowne Story." This quickly morphed into a call to action; "What's Your Yorktowne Story?"
"It's a great honor and privilege to join efforts with the YCIDA, YCEA, and Hilton Hotels Worldwide to bring The Yorktowne Hotel, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, back to the city of York," said Ken Kochenour, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of GF Hotels & Resorts and a York College alumnus.
