Nice stay in central location
Main public areas were decorated really nicely for Christmas, and received a warm welcome at reception. My room was described as cosy and it was on small side but perfectly comfortable for solo traveller.
Ate in the restaurant, very tasty meal.

So so
Great central location and nice lobby but the outside is covered in scaffolding and the room was pretty shabby. Only shower over bath and pretty poor with loose fittings, but clean and plenty of hot water. Most frustrating thing was the parking, charged at £20 a night add on and breakfast was extra too. Overall Travel lodge accommodation with nice lobby and hidden charges.

A favourite place to stay
A favourite place to stay when I visit Leeds. Walking distance from the station with a wheelie case and close to the shops and restaurants. Stephanie was very helpful at check in and the bar is cosy with a TV and good menu. It's a quiet hotel, so perfect for a busy trip. Good hot and powerful shower is a bonus!

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.
