The stay at the Holiday Inn Bradford was overall, good. The room was nice if a little dated, but there were no plug sockets near the bed, and the room was very warm. There was a little fan supplied, but as there were not many sockets in the room, we couldn't use the fan as our phones were charging. We also had to close the windows due to traffic noise. The breakfast buffet was nice, the staff were friendly and the hot food was always topped up. Unfortunately a family of Africans were grabbing handfuls of pastries and muffins with no care for hygiene. They took all the muffins, and as fast as the staff refilled them, they straight away emptied the shelves until they had 2 carrier bags full. The management warned them, but they were just ignored, and carried on grabbing all the muffins. It spoiled the breakfast for some of the guests, as they were unable to get muffins, and didn't want to eat food that had been handled. I probably wouldn't stay here again for that reason.

This accommodation has no Aircon in the room and windows can’t be opened. On arrival it was 27 degrees in the room. A fan was provided but couldn’t sleep as too hot. Rooms are tired and carpet is awful. Book elsewhere for a better stay

Clean comfortable accessible

This was our 2nd stay. Very friendly staff. Made us very welcome and understood wheelchair requirements. Nice room, clean and plenty of room for a wheelchair user. Good accessible bathroom. Breakfast was very good. Hot and plenty of options. Bed was ok and only a standard double. Room was quite warm and as no option to open the window air conditioning would have been a nice option

Handy location. Room needs air conditioning or at least a fan as it was far too warm. Was not a pleasant experience to see breakfast being cleared away as we were eating.

Review of stay on 30/07/2025

Stayed here for 1 night on business in a double room on the fourth floor. The hotel was in a great location for where I needed to be. There are some entertainment venues in the immediate area if you want to eat/drink outside of the hotel. Hotel does not have onsite parking but the hotel is joined to a multi-storey car park that costs just £1.50 to park for 24 hours. From check-in to Check-out the staff were friendly and couldn’t do more for you. The areas of the hotel I visited (lobby, reception, bar, restaurant and room) were all clean and tidy. The weather was warm when I stayed and although having what seemed like an air conditioning control on the wall the room didn’t have any air conditioning however opening the window let a good breeze in and there was a small fan in the room that circulated the breeze. Given the hotel location near a busy road and with the window open all night noise was not an issue. The bed was comfortable, tea/coffee making facilities were as you would expect. TV was smaller than most but had a good variety of channels. I couldn’t find an in room safe so if you’re staying with valuables you might want to ask at reception if there is anything they can offer to keep valuables secure. The bathroom was clean and functional. For an overnight stay so close to where I needed to be for business this was a great location. Breakfast was good with a good range of cereals and a selection of cooked items to build your own cooked breakfast.
