The brand new 130 bedroom hotel is situated in Leeds City Centre North on Claypit Lane and is just a stone's throw from the Millennium Square, Leeds flagship project to mark the year 2000 which has become a focal point for events in the city centre. The square is bordered by many of the city's most famous landmarks, including the Town Hall, Leeds City Museum, Leeds Academy and Leeds College of Art.
The new hotel is ideal for travellers being located just over a mile from Leeds Railway station and perfectly situated near all the shopping plazas, restaurants and theatres this lively city has to offer. The hotel is also within a five mile radius to both Leeds Metropolitan University and the University of Leeds.
David Kent, General Manager of Premier Inn Leeds City Centre North, commented: "The hotel is ideally located for those looking for a great value weekend break as the city has so much to offer. It will also be extremely convenient for business travellers looking for accommodation near the city centre."
Each bedroom caters for up to two adults and two children (aged 15 and under) and includes an en-suite bathroom; a king size bed; remote control TV with Freeview; tea/coffee making facilities, and a spacious desk area with Wi-Fi Internet access. The site will also offer the All You Can Eat 'Premier Breakfast' in the on-site restaurant.
