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.

Night in Leeds
Hotel was undergoing renovation when we stayed so there was some noise going on. In addition, there was a lot of outdoor noise during the night. (I know the hotel can't control what happens outside, but double glazing might help). The Aircon in the room was out of order so it got quite warm (we kept the windows closed to try to keep the noise level down)
Other than that, the room was very clean, bed was comfortable and the breakfast was very good
