Holiday Inn Express Leeds City Centre - Armouries  

Clean, modern, good breakfast, helpful desk staff, conveniently located and a short walk into town centre.

The room was of reasonable standard

The hotel is very difficult to access. Signs for the armouries did not appear until we were reasonable close having driven around the one way system for some time. The parking is very expensive and we were not warned of the extra £15 The breakfast was revolting, scabby egg, dried up sausages and piles of baked beans. The coffee was undrinkable. On our second morning we did choose a croissant in place of the floppy toast but these had not been available the previous day. There were few staff on to clear the tables and so many people were sitting at tables where the previous occupants plates were still sitting. It was a depressing stay.

Room maintenance was zero, we had spark and shock circuit in out room no. 117'S heater, heater was stopped working. When informed reception then person told me that plug was taped!!! I did not expect this from reputed hotel.

On arrival was given a room on entering noticed that the coffee had been used, further investiagtion and the bed and bathroom had been used so wnet back to reception and explained and was relocated to another room. Full of apologies from the staff. New room excellent. Was going to eat in the hotel but was advised there would be at least an hour wait so went to the Pizza Express next door, excellent. Breakfast very good but not enough clearing staff so it was looking a bit shabby, but quality of food was good.would recommend and would stay again.

Loved our smoking room and the shower was amazing. Can't wait to stay again. The staff were great

Its a little out of the centre

An excellent location if you are visiting the Royal Armouries, although I'm not so sure it would be so convenient if you were looking for city centre or shopping access. However we were very pleased with the hotel, the staff couldn't have been more helpful, the dinner we had on the first night was excellent and we would have no hesitation in recommending the hotel to friends.

I was not aware that there were still smoking hotels left in this country. The whole hotel stunk of smoke and air spray trying to hide it. I tried three rooms because of facilities being broken in them all. The room I settled on had a broken sink and stains all over the sofa. I would recommend that nobody stays at this hotel.

Good location with friendly staff and Informal atmosphere.

Self service breakfast was basic & dining area was busy on Sunday between 9:30 & 10:30.

It was located in a very nice part of Leeds Centre and was very quiet - no busy roads nearby. The room was very clean and smoking was allowed in the room which is very important to me.

When I first arrived there was no-one on Reception. I waited for 10 minutes and then decided to park my car and try again after that.

Excellent hotel, would def go back again, and the reception staff were so friendly. Loved it.

Convenience and price

Dont like the fact that smoking is still permitted in some rooms

Friendly staff. Excellent position. Comfortable and efficient.

nice sized rooms, right next to the canal, very near the town centre and lovely breakfast with loads of choice. Will definately stay here whenever i go to leeds.
