Pleasant surprise
Great central location, with nearby car park (discounted rate for hotel guests). Small bar and restaurant on site, serving a good buffet breakfast. Room was comfy and clean, with free Wi-Fi available - good signal in room. Friendly staff. First time at a HIE and would stay again.

Enjoyable stay in Leeds
We had a wonderful stay, staff were excellent, special mention to Addie on reception who was a credit to the hotel. Breakfast was good quality, with everything you could need to set you up for the day.Hotel is a couple of hundred yards from the Armouries museum and the same distance from the canal tow path along which you can walk into Leeds centre shopping in about 10 mins.

We really enjoyed our stay
Really impressed with this Holiday Inn - lovely staff, a nice room (with everything we needed tucked away inside it!) I particularly liked the door on the bathroom which also acted as the door to the toilet - genius!!
Very good breakfast and with the option of taking it away in little boxes if that was more convenient - I have never come across that before - a great idea.
Also very clean and comfortable.

Budget with extras
Hotel was in a great location for Leeds city centre. The room was compact but clean and comfortable with an excellent shower and comfy bed.
The impressive part for a budget type hotel was the very friendly and helpful staff. This made our stay more enjoyable.
Breakfast was well organised which isnt always the case ,which was mainly due to the staffs efficiency
Two night stay was really very good

Good decision to stay
I struggled to find a hotel with parking as I had a rental car. In the end,I chose this one and it was perfect. Easy to find, parking right beside it and the price for both the room and parking was reasonable (£8 for the parking)
We arrived really really late and it wasn't a problem. They offered us a late check out but we didn't need it.
Bed was clean, and comfortable.
Breakfast was actually really good (fresh croissant was delicious, no wonder they ran out lol )
All staff were friendly & chatty which I think was really nice.
I would stay again.
Next time I'll visit the armoury museum next door and avail of the water taxi into town.
