Clean . Excellent Customer Service Friendly Staff throughout the hotel Definitely Stay again. My only thought its a little misleading to say its the city center personally i think it on the outskirts of the city.As a visitor to Leeds i thought it was rivht in the area and walking would push it when the area is unknown.Fabulous restaurant nect door with 10% off showing your room key Mylahor a British Asian restaurant it doesnt see alcohol if you wanted it .Food was devine.If you wanted a drink there is a bar back at the hotel.Quiet a few restaurants in the area and a few convenient stores but not city center stores if your on a shopping spree.Average taxi to city centre or train Station or the Arena ( there are 2 so check)were £8 we just gave a £10 note and that covers the tip.Veezue is the company we use the hotel will book you one if you want one.Or check it out making sure you use the number for Leeds to pre book as the company cater for many cities 😀
