Top choice in Leeds


Raising the bar for luxury sleeps in Leeds, this gleaming new hotel has quickly become popular thanks to its central location close to shops and bars, swanky yet muted designer interior and five-star service. Rooms are plush, modern and classic, and the suites are like mini-apartments, with open-plan lounge areas and dressing rooms with robes. Rates are room only.

Look for midweek deals including bed, breakfast and dinner, as it can work out cheaper than standard rates.
