Where to Stay
With Leeds being just as popular with commuters as it is with day-trippers, it is inevitable that there will be a great variety of accommodation on offer as the city has to cater for differing needs and circumstances.
With over 65 hotels, B&Bs, serviced apartments and self catering cottages for you to feast upon however, Leeds doesn’t disappoint and depending on preference, you can afford to be choosy as there is so much choice dotted all around the city. Regardless of whether you’re on a business trip to the Yorkshire city, or are simply exploring all that Leeds has to offer, there is accommodation to suit all budgets, tastes and requirements.
If you want to see what the city has to offer in terms of shopping, the arts and entertainment however, a good quality hotel is just what you’ll need. Luckily, there are a wide range of impressive hotels peppered around the city and all have their own unique style to showcase. The city centre is where you’ll find many of the highest quality hotels, and all are perfectly situated to make the most of what the cosmopolitan gem has to offer.
If you like to play it safe, there are many chain hotels such as the Crowne Plaza, however, if you really want a taste of Yorkshire life, many of the private hotels are housed in traditional and historic buildings which adds to the experience. The Queens Hotel for instance is one of Leeds’ most popular offerings and epitomises old fashioned Yorkshire life with its architecture and decor. If you want to make your trip as memorable as it possibly can be however, Leeds also has plenty of boutique hotels that really provide the cosmopolitan experience.
There are also a number of hotels that offer spa and pamper treatments too including Wood Hall which is a real splendour to behold. If however, your visit is strictly business, you will probably want somewhere that is not only comfortable and relaxing, but near to the business sector of the city too. If this is what you require, Oulton Hall or the Marriott Hollins Hall Hotel and Country Club will certainly fit the bill. Both are upmarket and endearing and are exactly what is needed after a busy day. What’s more, they both have golf facilities which means you will certainly have all the facilities you need to unwind.
