Man and woman found dead in Yorkshire hotel room 200 miles from home

A man and a woman have been found dead in a hotel room in North Yorkshire 200 miles from their home.

Police are investigating after the two bodies were discovered at the Doubletree by Hilton Harrogate Majestic Hotel and Spa in Harrogate.

The man and the woman were from London, police said.

Detectives investigating believe that the victims, in their late 30s or early 40s, were known to each other.

Officers are not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths.

Detective Superintendent Wayne Fox of North Yorkshire Police’s Major Investigation Team said: "We were called at around 10.20pm on Tuesday 4 May by hotel staff at the Majestic Hotel to a report that the bodies of a man and a woman had been located in a hotel room.

"On arrival, a man and a woman, both in their late 30s/early 40s from the London area, were pronounced dead at the scene by colleagues from the ambulance service.

"Their families have been informed and are being supported by specially-trained officers.

"A detailed investigation is under way looking into the circumstances of both deaths.

"We can confirm that we are not looking for anyone else in connection with the deaths and would like to reassure the local community that we believe that this is an isolated incident.”

The Mirror has contacted Doubletree by Hilton Harrogate Majestic Hotel and Spa in Harrogate for comment.
