Discovery Inn - Leeds ★★

📍 13-15 Bishopgate St, Leeds

"We stayed on a Saturday night and found it to be a pleasant hotel with lovely staff, particularly Andreas who greeted us on arrival. Our room was very spacious and clean, the bathroom was a bit tired but more than acceptable. It's conveniently located next to the train station and as to be expected, it was a bit noisy but the double windows did well to shut most of it out. I wear earplugs to sleep so didn't hear a thing but my husband did. The bed was very comfy although it might have been nice to have two pillows each. Other than that, I thought it was good value for money and very pleasant given it's 2 star rating."

ibis budget Leeds Centre Royal Armouries Museum Hotels in Leeds

ibis budget Leeds Centre Royal Armouries Museum

"This is the third time I have stayed. I come up for work at the university an every time I have stayed I kick myself for not remembering to avoid this place. This time - I’d had a confirmation email for the booking to suggest that check in was at 2pm. I thought this was great as I arrived at 2:20 and could go and drop my luggage in the room before heading out for some tea. When I arrived I was told it was 3pm. Not very inconvenient admittedly but there were 6 people checking in at the same time and the receptionist put us all in adjacent rooms. This for me felt very uncomfortable and he was very unempathetic. - the room is sooo basic. Very studenty (which is maybe the point) No Kettle. One plug socket and no where near the mirror for hairdryer use etc - quite noisy from c 7pm onwards from other people staying. I didn’t feel safe. I locked the door from the inside and had the window open as much as possible as there is a general old musty smell around the whole hotel."

"Had a good one night stay here on a weekday. Room had everything you’d need. It’s not too far to walk to the main places. Would probably stay again if I was in Leeds again."

Leeds Marriott Hotel Hotels in Leeds

Leeds Marriott Hotel

"The hotel is about a five-minute walk from the train station and a 12-minute walk from the bus station. It's located in the city center, right across from a shopping mall with a M&S supermarket! The hotel's interior is clean, and the service is warm and friendly. The room size is quite spacious for UK standards. Overall, it was a good experience."

"The experience was great until the electricity when off an hour after I used the oven/microwave in the evening - almost had dinner in the dark with my husband. Luckily, the Guest Service helped me quickly via WhatsApp. Another missing item was toilet tissue. I was only provided with one roll for 4 days stay. It forced me to purchase tissue with my own money."

The Boundary Hotel - B&B Hotels in Leeds

The Boundary Hotel - B&B

"Very disturbing experience. We stayed on the top floor in a room that was very dated and smelly. Bedroom - The plugs next to the bed didn’t work, cold water from taps, no heating, door lock faulty ( we were two women who already felt afraid from entry at reception to an intoxicated host), food wrapper behind bed side table, no bed side lamp. The bedroom window was broken by over 1.5cm at the too so the wind and noise all night was unpleasant. Bathrooms - The two bathrooms on the second floor were appalling. Both smelled very very bad of mould. One of the toilets moved about an inch and a half once you sat on it (we were desperate to pee after long travels). The showers looked disgusting so we did not wash. Whilst the hotel was hoovered the carpets throughout are very old and stinky. There was a smell of **** in reception. The stairs are thin and steep. All doors filthy. The beds were fine to sleep on, bedsheets clean but you could see under the mattress and pillows were yellow. Walls paper thin. We ignored this and went to sleep as we had to catch a very early flight. We believe people live here full time and there may be a personal hygiene issue. Free carpark difficult to get into, watch your car doesn’t scrap the ground as you enter down the pot hole hill. Bar downstairs but no one in it which was good for noise. Horrendous. Diabolical. Nasty."

"A well furnished standard twin room with everything I need. Very customer-focused."

"Fab stay thank you! Friendly staff who go above and beyond , coffee/tea/hot chocolate and pastries on tap comfy beds what more could a girl ask for! Definitely enjoyed my stay that much thad I ended up expending the trip by one more day. Perfect location too- not too far from town but then also next door to quite a few restaurants and takeaways. I would most definitely stay again."

Holiday Inn LEEDS - GARFORTH by IHG ★★★★
"Nice enough hotel but with some reservations, the main entrance had work going on and was closed.the signage for the alternative entrance was poor and so difficult to get into the hotel. Once in side (I entered through the health club) there wasn’t ant directions to the reception. Once checked in, the room was decent if a bit of a trek to get to. Upon checking out, again the sign for the barrier code wasn’t easy to spot. I’m sure once all the alterations are complete the hotel will be back to the usual standards found at the average Holiday Inn."

Discovery Inn - Leeds ★★
"Television didn’t work . The staff did offer to help but we didn’t use it after first night anyway . Shower floor was very old and quite disgusting had to buy a bath mat , shower pressure almost non existent took 4 times normal to get washed and cleaned. No parking and must pay between £14-20 a day to park , the entire street to the hotel was shut for roadworks that continued through the night with no break , was very noisy so barely slept . All in all I would not recommend couples staying here if they wish to have a nice peaceful stay"

Leeds Hotels Booking Tips

  • Book early for peak periods: Hotels sell out fast during bank holidays, summer weekends, Christmas markets, graduation season, and major events at the First Direct Arena or Elland Road.
  • Know peak vs off-season: Peak season runs from May to September and during major events; January to March and late autumn offer better value and more availability.
  • Prioritise transport access: Pick hotels within a 10-minute walk of a train station or main bus routes to avoid rush-hour traffic and save time getting around.
  • Compare prices smartly: Use platforms like Trip.com to compare rates, and new users can often enjoy extra hotel discounts.
  • Stay flexible when possible: Choose hotels with free cancellation, especially if travelling for events or during busy weekends, as prices and plans can change quickly.
