Stayed for a night as we were seeing Billy Ocean. Great location and we got parking which was £20. We noticed the hotel is being renovated and they gave us a lovely room on the 6th floor. It was very hot and there was no aircon which we were told but though the receptionist was friendly, at the time told us it was hot and about the aircon not working but did not offer us a fan. I think we payed high price for the room I don’t know if it was because the had gigs going on in Leeds but for what I payed for the night compared to normal it was expensive. We weee boiling hot and hot back too late to ask for a fan and just had cold showers. We expressed this in the morning and was told they had fans but did mention that it was never offered to us. The hotel was clean, staff friendly and breakfast was lovely and they catered for Gluten free. However because of the price of the room for that night and not being offered a fan, we were abit disappointed.

Parts of the hotel are being renovated at the moment, but this didnt effect our stay, it was peaceful, clean and the staff went above and beyond to make my friend and my stay a great experience. Our accommodation was perfect, it was spacious, clean and very up to date and modern. We both agreed that we would definitely stay again.

Beware of Early Morning Construction Noise

I stayed during a period of ongoing construction work at the hotel. Unfortunately, building activity began as early as 4:30 am, with trucks arriving every 30 minutes to load and unload materials. The constant noise made it nearly impossible to get a good night’s sleep. Guests should be made aware of this in advance.

The hotel is like a building site - it should not be open to the public - the construction works started banging and drilling at 7.45.Dust everywhere The heating was not working, so they brought up portable radiators. The general manager was nowhere to be seen - worse, stay never again

The property was right where we needed it to be in terms of accessibility to the heart of the city and the train station. It looked nicer in the photos than in real life, mostly because they were promoting renovations to the property that were not yet complete. In our rooms, the fixtures were older, but our rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. We would have preferred to know in advance about construction, but the staff were gracious and let us into one of our rooms early, since it was ready. We were tired from traveling and needed a chance to rest. Staff were very nice and professional. They held our bags for us after checkout. The breakfast was tasty and available until 11 am, which we appreciated.

Could be better

The hotel is being re-vamped, which is fine, however the toilet seat in my ensuite wasn't fitted properly, the shower didn't work, the room was very noisy.

Comfortable rooms

We booked two rooms for one night. Both rooms had large beds, good facilities and were clean. Breakfast was lovely with the usual full English and continental available. The only problem was as it was a Saturday night one of the rooms had a problem with noise from the street of revellers. Very friendly staff and the refurbishment is not a problem.
