Poor value for money
Buckets everywhere as a result of leaks and poor plumbing. No hot water on the morning. Generally worn down and badly in need of investment. Staff nice though. Just not worth £180 a night.

The hotel was central and near both the station and the Arena which was convenient for me. The scaffolding outside was very off putting. The reception area was very luxurious but the bedroom was quite small. Shower was adequate.

Just what we wanted
The hotel was just what we wanted close to the city centre with parking this was at an additional cost but it was only £20 for 24hours. The room was dated but it had all the essential facilities, hair dryer, tea and coffee, iron, shampoo conditioner and shower gel all of this was good quality and I used it instead of unpacking my own. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good with a great selection. We would definitely stay again if we came to Leeds.

Scaffolding and exterior works from 0730 which should have been disclosed on or before booking. Breakfast closed at 0930 on a Friday morning which is poor.

Where's the car park?
It was okay. The room was quite small, the bathroom was cold, and the parking was a nightmare. I asked for a quiet room but was awoken by outside noise at around 4:30. My room had no USB sockets, the windows were old fashioned and single glazed. The staff were very nice, on the plus side, however. The worst was the parking on site. A charge of £20, for limited spaces that meant the only way out was to reverse either up or down a ramp into busy traffic, through a tight-ish stone archway (that is so easy to miss on arrival as there's no signage) is very overpriced. Any rest you might get from a night in the hotel swiftly evaporates when you try to leave the carpark!

Too noisy
Staff were so helpful and friendly, great room service food was good. Main areas of hotel very nice. Room small and dated. Furniture in room too large and heavy, husband hit his head on bedside table in the night. For a city centre hotel some noise is to be expected but assumed there would be adequate glazing/sound proofing. Unfortunately not, was kept awake most of the night by the nightclub directly outside our room, thumping bass, crashing bottles being emptied in bins, screaming and shouting. In additional to this, you can hear every footstep, voices and doors slamming in the corridor so this was endured at all hours as people returned from nights out. To sum up, nice main hotel facilities, great staff, dated small rooms, very noisy, possibly the worst night we've ever had in a hotel in terms of sleep.
