2-Star Hotels in Leeds

We had an overnight stay during our visit to Yorkshire and Peak District area. The reason that we chose this hotel is because it had 3 people rooms and it was part of the Accor All program. While being a budget hotel and providing rooms for three people to share, the rooms are very small and quite uncomfortable. If you want a budget short-stay, it is an option but I'm sure you can find more comfortable stays at a premier inn. Location wise, it was at ok distance to city centre however parking was hard to find and overnight parking expensive. HINT: Use the NCP parking nearby and the hotel can provide a validation that will give you a discount of 11£ (still I paid 9£). Here are some details: Welcome: The staff were helpful and attentive. However, there was no recognition of Accor All program status. They didn't provide any welcome drinks and no room upgrades could be offered since it is a standard room hotel. Rooms: The beds are comfortable but everything apart from that is uncomfortable. For three people rooms, the hotel has bunk beds which is hard to climb. There is nowhere to move in the room. The toilet is just a small cabin where you have no place to move and there is no bathroom, just a shower in the middle of the room. The sinks are in the room. Anything more than 1 night would be impossible for us. Hotel: It is an aged building and it is obvious at every corner. The elevators are smelly. The reception area is not inviting. Location: The hotel is central and a short walk to Leeds city centre. However, there is no free parking around. Park at NCP car park and the hotel will provide an 11£ discount voucher. Breakfast: They provide a basic breakfast with some cold food and sausage/bacon options. No eggs. The coffee wasn't great. It was affordable (6£ per person) but it is nothing notable. Staff: Very friendly and helpful. They helped us to find some extra pillows at night when we found out that only 1 was provided even though there was a special request for extra pillows in our reservation. Overall, I would not want to stay here again even though it provides all the necessities. This is mainly because the rooms were very small and claustrophobic and the hotel was quite aged. Apart from that, if you are looking for a good-value stay near Leeds, it could be an option.

The booking and check in service was easy to follow which was a relief. I found this hotel to be clean and presentable throughout. The room was clean, relatively spacious and a lovely working shower. The staff in this hotel went the extra mile to make my stay as comfortable as possible. Every staff member I approached was friendly and helpful. An quality experience in a value hotel.

Despite a nice welcome and the Leeds city centre location of the Discovery Inn this accommodation was disappointing in almost all aspects of my stay. The Inn does not have a bar or restaurant (serves continental breakfast in the lobby only at extra cost). On the way to the room I noticed the old and stained carpets and tired paintwork, the lift had a disgusting smell during the whole stay. The room I was allocated did not have a view of the outside, it had frosted glass on both windows which did not open beyond a letterbox gap, so you had no idea if it was raining or not for example (the hotel should inform guests of this). The room and bathroom had decorative order issues in this case a massive hole in the wall and many places mildew and stains in the bathroom. The television was so small it was hard to watch though the Wi-FI was very good however do not expect air conditioning or a fan. The room benefited from one hard wooden chair in front of small impractical desk space. The compact corridor-like bathroom was very dated in terms of décor, required a good clean and the noise from the extractor fan was annoying.

This was more on the lines of a down market hostel than a 2* hotel Our ”room” was a converted ”outhouse/garage” right in the back of a badly kept, rubbish strewn, dirty car park, full of overflowing bins, 2 fridges and a lawnmower . The numerous steps up to the reception, had loose, broke flags which were a trip hazard. The ”seating area” in the front of the main building was strewn with litter and beer cans. The room itself was clean, as was the linen. To get to the outbuilding, we had to exit a fire exit and walk through an unlit, unsafe pathway. Room had fridge but no light. The air extractor in the ensuite could not be switched off, so we all had to use earplugs in order to sleep. Shocking accommodation overall. The staff didn't care. This is not newly refurbished as described in the hotel details.

My friends and I meet up in Leeds annually every February as it is a fairly central location and a lively and enjoyable place to catch up and reminisce on stories of old. We booked the art hostel as it was reasonably priced and looked an interesting and quirky accommodation. Upon arriving we were met by a friendly young lady wearing her who checked us in and pointed us in the direction pyjamas at no extra cost. Our 8 bed room was made up of 4 bunk beds. Each bed was like an enclosed cabin with a window to climb through to get into bed. The room was clean and neat and came with a free pokemon card. When seeing the setup i thought the top bunk would be quite an unique change to the norm so I left my bag on the top bunk and left the hostel to endulge on what can only be described as a disgraceful day of debauched drunked nonsense in Leeds city centre, a short walk away from the hostel. I can't actually remember getting back to the hostel, nor can i remember negotiating the step ladders up to the top bunk. My only rather vague memory is the searing pain and the stomach churning thud as my head bounced off the unforgiving wooden floor of the room after I somehow managed to fall out of bed in my sleep. I've since been told that I picked myself up off the floor and composed myself on a chair by the window that I can only assume the staff have positioned for this very reason although I can't actually remember this. I awoke this morning in my comfortable and clean top bunk bed with what looks like a blue egg on my forehead above my right eye and dried blood slathered across my brow and matted into my shirt which it seems I had failed to remove before embarking upon an otherwise gloriously comfortable slumber. Im not sure if it was the hangover or the head injury that caused the feeling of blunt knives being rammed into my eye sockets. Whatever the cause, it was rather painful. To my surprise I got little sympathy from my six ”friends” and room mates for the night. The proceeded to laugh, empty the contents of my bag over the floor, throw my socks out of the window and generally tease me about my misfortune. All in all a wonderful experience and one id highly recommend to anyone. 5 stars
