Dear Michael R Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay. I would agree with you Bradford does provide an alternative to Hotels In Leeds and with regular trains every twenty minutes during peak times and the journey time of only 20 mins it can indeed work out as a cheaper option.

I stayed here for two nights when on a business trip to Bradford and I found the location great, although you will have to pay for parking (very reasonably priced too!). The hotel was clean and the staff were very friendly. The limited bar menu was OK. The curry stood out as the best, but don't expect any restaurant quality... More

I stayed for two nights, and found the hotel to be pretty much like most other Holiday Inn Express, that is once I could find it. I could see it, but getting in was altogether different. What you need to do is pull into the multi-story car-park for the Leisure Exchange, and drive to the fifth floor. You then go... More

The location of the hotel is ideal for business travelers, as you have a good selection of restaurants, a car park and even a cinema on your doorstep. However that's about the only thing positive about the hotel. Although the staff is helpful and friendly there's never enough of them. If somebody's checking in/out, it means you may have to... More
