"Frigid cold room, no hot water, unhelpful staff"

I arrived late at night and wanted to sleep before an interview the following day, the room was really cold. I turned the heating up to maximum (24 C) and it made no difference. I went to bed since I was already sleep deprived and had an early start the next day. The following morning I found there was no hot water for a shower. The reception staff were not helpful, they directed me to a central guest relations phone number instead of managing the problem there and then. I won't be returning, avoid!

"Run down hotel"

Stayed here as I was going to see James Arthur across the road at first direct arena. It ended up being cancelled the same day so had to spend time in the hotel room. The hotel itself is VERY run down, all the cladding/ fascia on the outside has fallen off and inside paint and walls are chipped and generally run down. The bedding was clean but they have the worlds smallest TV. Staff on reception at check in were helpful, but when I visited later in the evening to try and rebook for the new concert date, I found the woman quite rude and dismissive. I gave it 2 stars purely for location and clean bedding, but it is VERY over priced and run down. In comparison I stayed at one of their Manchester hotels the same week (for James Arthur again!) and that was lovely, clean, bright, big tv screens, chaise longue in room and looked like new.

"Disgusting."

As soon as I walked into the hotel I felt ill. The conditions here are worse than dog canals and I wouldn’t make my worse enemy stay here. The staff are mostly rude with a couple of exceptions. After an hour long wait I finally got to my room which hadn’t been cleaned for what looked like a year. I decided I’d had enough and left to spend the night on a bench in the train station. Avoid this hotel when you can.

"Ideal location for the Arena "

I booked this Premier Inn to stay at after seeing a gig at the First Direct Arena. As I was travelling alone I wanted somewhere close to the arena. Couldn’t get any closer with this hotel, it’s just across the road. Ideal location for me. Check in was quick thanks to the self service check in machines and I was pleasantly surprised to find I had been allocated a family room (a double bed and a single). Only a few minor faults with the room. Tv could only get a few channels, most of the freeview channels came up as not having a strong enough signal to receive. The free wifi was also incredibly slow (no doubt to get you to upgrade to premium wifi). Not a big issue as only in the room for a short time. Overall a decent hotel and room and would definitely use it again.

"Disappointed"

Can I start by saying that the restaurant and bar staff met the usual high standard that we have come to expect at a Premier Inn. However at check in we were met by a member of staff who was surly and disinterested, just gave us our room key, no information about breakfast or evening meal times or meal deals. She did however, when asked, validate our car park ticket which was supposed to give us a reduced rate of £10 for 24 hours. When we got to the car park the following morning, like a previous reviewer we were charged the full £20. As we had a long drive home we didn't fancy taking our cases back to the hotel to sort it out but I contacted Premier Inn later only to be met with disinterest. They suggested I contacted the car park owner as it was nothing to do with Premier Inn. I pointed out that on the hotel website it advertised the reduced rate on the car park but to no avail. We use Premier Inn a lot and will probably still do so but I was disappointed with their disinterest

Hotel description Whether you're catching a gig or hitting the shops, the Premier Inn Hotel Leeds City Centre is the perfect gateway to 'the London of the North'. And, if you're here for work, we're in a handy spot for the Leeds financial district and conference centres. Of course, there's plenty of play on your doorstep too. You could chant on your team at Elland Road, or cheer on the bands at the First Direct Leeds Arena or O2 Academy. There are stylish shops just a stroll away, as well as the many Leeds universities. And, when you're ready to drop, return to our tasty restaurant, spacious rooms and extra-comfy beds.
