Best Leeds Hotels

"The hotel breakfast was delicious and had a good variety. The front desk service was excellent; we arrived early and they thoughtfully arranged an early check-in for us. The hotel's location is super convenient, very close to both the bus station and the train station. The only minor drawback was that the cleaning staff entered the room without knocking to ask if we needed anything."

"I booked as I wanted a hotel near leeds first direct arena fantastic location for this purpose was a 5min walk away and I'm a slow walker due to a bad knee. I booked a twin room the beds were bigger than a standard single bed very comfy and dont get me started on the pillows they were just perfect! The staff on each shift were lovely and welcoming, I got a great surprise as didnt realise the room included a complementary breakfast, it was buffet style so wasn't really expecting much from it I couldn't have been more wrong it was lovely and plenty of variety even down to a machine to make your own waffles! I will definitely book there again on my next visit to leeds"

"The hotel is right next to the train station. The front desk staff was a Pakistani guy, and he was incredibly friendly. Seeing I was Chinese, he immediately upgraded my room, telling me, 'I must give you the best, everything is new, everything is fresh.' When I was filling out the form, I had only completed two lines and was about to ask him about the third, but he just said, 'It's fine,' and took the form away. As soon as I entered the room, for the first time ever, the lights came on without me having to insert a card. It was also the first time I've seen a welcome message with my name on the TV. This was also the first time I've encountered air conditioning in any accommodation in the UK (be it hotels, B&Bs, or dorms). It was the first hotel that made me feel like it was a complete package (everything was well-equipped, except for the usual lack of toothbrushes and toothpaste). And it was the first time I played a game with a remote control (though I fell asleep after just a couple of tries). By the time I settled in, it was already 9 PM. At this hour, finding a restaurant outside is tough, and walking around a strange city at night didn't feel very safe. But the hotel has its own restaurant. The prices were a bit steep, but the service and food were definitely worth it, especially the feeling of being able to have a hot meal after a long, tiring day. (The fries were genuinely freshly made, and they gave a whole jar of sauce!) It was a truly satisfying experience. The staff here are genuinely great. Whether it was the Pakistani guy at the front desk, the Black gentleman at the restaurant, or anyone else, they all made an effort to say a few words in Chinese. It really felt like what they say in 'Blossoms Shanghai' – even though you can communicate in English, when someone speaks your language, you truly feel their sincerity. For that meal, I fully expected to pay a service charge (and I would have gladly paid it at this restaurant; normally, I'd remove it if I didn't feel the service was earned). But the bill came with clear pricing, no hidden fees. I didn't have any cash on me, otherwise, I definitely would have left a tip."

"The hotel is brand new, and the room is incredibly spacious with no unpleasant odors. The smart climate control kept the temperature very comfortable. The bed was soft and the window was large, which really helped me shake off the fatigue from staying in some super old hotels in France. I definitely want to come back again! (Picture three shows the view from the window)"

"Fab hotel, great location from train station. Lots of places to eat and drink outside and by the canal. Great room, very clean, comfy bed, lovely views, quiet. Love the Sky Lounge, staff are really helpful and friendly, my favourite hotel in Leeds."

"The hotel is beautifully presented. All staff took the time to be engaging and helpful. The hotel has little to no parking which is a bit of a shame.We ate in the restaurant and throughly enjoyed our meal. We look forward to booking again we loved our room gorgeous bathroom !"

"We had a wonderful stay at the Dakota in Leeds. The staff were phenomenal and very accommodating, even taking delivery of an item prior to our arrival. It is excellently located, with a solid albeit not spectacular breakfast. Arguably the only area for improvement would be providing a few more amenities in the room. There is no mini fridge, limited wardrobe space, and the bathroom was a little lacking - no cotton pads, cotton ear buds, or toilet brush. Otherwise I can highly recommend this place for any stay in Leeds."

"This was mine & my daughter’s second visit to the hotel, the first time was excellent on all counts.  This time sadly the breakfast wasn’t very good, the sausages, eggs & hash browns were luke warm & tasted like they had been sat there for quite a while, so we ended up leaving that food.  Also, sadly, the two coffee machines were out of order so we just had to have instant coffee. Our room was lovely & spacious though & the reception staff were nice & friendly.  The hotel is in a good location for walking into the city centre."

"It was an amazing stay, enjoyed it, though for a day. The room was spacious, bathroom was clean and well organized, the bed was comfortable, soft and very welcoming I didn't want to wake up for check out. Will definitely return. Had pasta in the restaurant and that was not good at all. Needs improvement."
