Sora York at Malmaison: Rooftop Asian Fusion in York with an AA Rosette

Sora York is the rooftop Asian fusion restaurant at Malmaison York, 2 Rougier Street, and it holds one AA Rosette for culinary excellence in 2026.

Asian fusion above the city

Sora sits at the top of the hotel, a former landmark insurance building a short walk from York Minster. The kitchen cooks in an Asian fusion style, with signature cocktails alongside. The hotel describes the outlook as the best views in the city.

Part of the hotel

Sora is one of two places to eat at Malmaison York. The other is Chez Mal Brasserie & Bar, which is built around a wider wine list and a more relaxed brasserie menu. Guests staying in the hotel's 150 rooms can head up to Sora without leaving the building, and the Rosette gives other diners a reason to book it separately.
