Hotel du Vin. Just outside the wall but easily walked into city centre. Ambiente tapas in Fossgate. Lovely food and they do some small sample glasses of sherry which isn't like the Emva cream your nan used to drink!
The wife and I usually eat here when we visit and we have stayed at the Hotel du Vin which was very nice. The Grand hotel in the city looks impressive but never stayed there. Thing is there are many places to eat so enjoy your stay.

Where to start! Budget? Goes from £500 to £5000 per night for ‘posh’.
Couple of beers here:

Marzano Italian Restaurant & Grill, in the heart of York
If you’re looking for a cozy place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, look no further than Marzano.

You must be posher than me!!!
The Grand is lovely and would definitely be my choice.
As for food:
Skosh - Welcome to Skosh
Roots - Home- Roots York
Or if you don't fancy fine dining, the Rose and Crown do some fantastic pub food (especially the pies):
Cocktails:
The house of trembling madness -https://www.tremblingmadness.co.uk/stonegate.html
Evil eye - Cocktail bar in York. Bizarre, weird and wonderful.
If you like your wine & whisky, I'd also recommend a testing sessions at Pairings:
Pairings - Wine Bar

I hope you enjoy yourself, and I can only apologise for what's about to happen to your bank account!

My daughter went to Uni in York, so I can get a list of good eateries etc, but for a posh hotel try Grays Court:

My wife and I stayed there a couple of times, and it is both posh & slap-bang in the city centre.
If Grays Court is a bit steep, we have also stayed in this place:

......still only a 10-15 minute stroll from the city centre.
I'll follow up with a separate post on food places once I've got a list off my daughter (and it won't be student dives either
)

Have a great time, York is a great city! The Blue Bell is one of the best proper pubs in the world - well worth a cultural visit! 
We’ve taken to staying in Harrogate for a few nights if the good York hotel prices are mental and getting the train in and out of York. Amazing bit of England.
