Great location for the University, super-clean and comfortable room. Excellent value for money and very helpful staff. Only issue is parking as the on-street metered bays have a 3 hour limit (and they’re expensive). However, the staff suggested driving to Kirklee Road where it’s free and only about a 10 minute walk.

I really enjoyed my stay. The hotel is located close to some great bars & restaurants & within walking distance of the city centre attractions. The beautiful Botanic Gardens are next door. I loved the hot buffet breakfast, it set me up for the day. My bedroom had loads of space, high ceilings and a kettle with tea & coffee. All in all good value for money. There is no free parking outside the hotel but I found plenty within a 20 minute walk away. I will definitely return.
