2-Star Hotels in West Yorkshire, United Kingdom

My boyfriend and I stayed here for two nights for valentines. We very much enjoyed our stay overall, the staff were very friendly and helpful, the hotel and rooms were very clean and had all the amenities we needed. When leaving we were able to leave our luggage for just £1 a suitcase which was very convenient. For the price I thought the food was good quality, however if you are looking for more of a cooked breakfast this isn’t the place. The location was very accessible and we were able to walk to everywhere easily. However it did get very noisy from about 5 in the morning.

The front desk staff, a Pakistani guy, was really friendly. When he found out I was Chinese, he said China and Pakistan are good friends and then gave me a great room with a view of Leeds Cathedral. For an Ibis Budget triple room, this price is an absolute steal, especially for a family of three!

The facilities were good, queit single room, you have to come in with your food as there is no food service in the hotel. The location was perfect for me this time.

A decent accommodation for a short stay. The place even provides a mini kitchen space which was not initially advertised but was a plus! Customer service was extremely helpful in terms of confirming the booking and figuring out how the shower works - apparently you have to pull a “lever” to turn on the shower, running water does not immediately come out of the shower as expected. Besides that minor hiccup, super easy to travel from this place given that the Huddersfield Bus Station is less than 10 mins and is reliable and is directly opposite the University of Huddersfield which makes it feel safe for a solo female traveller. Check-in and checkout was easy given that you will have to refer to the email sent on the digital lock passcode for the building entrance and the room. There isn’t a reception or customer service desk - more of an Air BNB concept.

Room equipment is relatively old

The hotel is ideally situated in walking distance to most shops and the town centre. It is not flashy and areas of the hotel are a little outdated but it was ideal for what I needed whilst visiting Halifax. The bed was comfy and the staff are super friendly! I instantly felt welcome and very comfortable to ask for assistance if I needed it. I would stay at The Old Post Office again. Top tip: if you are a solo traveler and rooms are not showing as available, then phone The Old Post Office directly. I was told the rates are £48 per night for solo travelers.
