Bradford stay

Friendly attentive staff members on reception/ bar & at breakfast. Beds were not too comfortable needed more padding. More blanklets should be available in the room as heating takes a long while to heat up the room. Great location for theatre and parking really good and not expensive. Good spread for breakfast.and decent priced room. Thank you.

A good choice, safe and comfortable

Next time we visit Bradford to see family we will book in at this hotel again, but I have two observations to mention. First - there are plenty of parking spaces which includes a covered multi story that, at the time of writing (Feb 2025) costs £1.50 for 24 hours. Second - The rooms are cleaned each day to a good standard, but the carpet in our room looked grubby and stained.

Holiday Inn Express Bradford City Centre by IHG is conveniently located at the Leisure Exchange Centre. A stone throw to the regenerated city centre, which includes a modern square surrounded by dining options, the Alhambra theatre and the National Science and Media Museum. Hot breakfast is included in the stay. Despite being located in an entertainment area, rooms are quiet. Showers are good and room service is efficient. Those coming by car can park at the multistorey car park. The rate is really affordable (£1.50 per 24 hours as of January 2025). Car parking payment is only by card.

Great location, nice rooms, only 3 pillows for a family of 3 though. Bedside light woukdnt stay on and window didnt close fully to shut the noise out, maybe seal had gone. Wasnt too noisy though and slept great so only minor things. Nice breakfast and nice view of the city from the restaurant. Will definitely return. £1.50 overnight parking too...brilliant.
