Novotel Leeds Centre

Depending on exit, it could be a 5 to 10 minute walk from the station at a leisurely pace. Upon arriving check-in was simple easy and the staff were incredibly friendly. They were informative. Let me know if I wanted a breakfast option pricing and where the location of the breakfast would be to inform me of when certain exits would be open and what time until. The room. I can’t lie I was pleasantly surprised, it’s been awhile since I stayed in a Novotel room. Not a huge egg, but I always find it weird when the toilet is separate from the bathroom but that’s no biggie. The bed was generous in size with a firm mattress and a soft topper. It felt like a two season duvet and the pillows were a little too soft for me but doubling up solve that problem. The shower/bath had an overhead shower function as well as a traditional showerhead, which made the end of my showering journey so much more pleasant. Amenities include included huge TV, a decent desk and a comfy chair , a sofa that could could turn into a bed, but the one thing that I valued the most was a little mini fridge located underneath the tea and coffee area. In the hotel, is the soap factory bar, a very comfy sofa centric bar and cocktail lounge great to get a good drink and a bit of pub style food. Additionally, is a restaurant that will serve the morning breakfast  and a believe lunch as well. POI, through the bar towards the Whitehall Road exit is a couple of shops that are worth knowing, a Greggs, Tesco express and a Marks & Spencer’s food hall are all located across the road. To add, taking a lift out the exit and a two minute distance away is a Sainsbury’s local which has a handy cashpoint if needed. I generally checked out thinking this might be my hotel of choice when coming back to Leeds.

A straightforward hotel, convenient for train station. Room was comfortable. Good temperature control, irritating to have toilet and wash basin in separate rooms, not enough plug sockets by the desk. Check in v efficient. Breakfast very satisfactory

Amazing room clean bed and very nice bathroom
