Clayton Hotel Leeds

From the moment we arrived, the hotel made a welcoming and professional first impression. The check-in process was well organised, and the overall approach to guest care was clear from the outset. My daughter immediately felt comfortable, which speaks to the friendly atmosphere the hotel aims to create. Although we encountered a system issue during check-in, it was handled efficiently and smoothly, demonstrating the hotel’s strong operational standards and commitment to guest satisfaction. Later, when we experienced difficulty accessing the lift to reach our room, the issue was resolved promptly and professionally, reinforcing confidence in the hotel’s ability to support guests when needed. One area that could benefit from improvement is the reception space itself. While functional, it feels quite open and minimal, and an upgrade could greatly enhance the overall arrival experience. Introducing elements such as comfortable seating, warm ambient lighting, and tasteful floral arrangements would help create a more inviting and relaxing environment, rather than simply an open space with a desk. Overall, the hotel delivers a professional and reassuring experience, and with a few thoughtful enhancements to the reception area, the arrival experience could be elevated even further. We would certainly consider returning in the future. If you’d like this softened further, or adjusted to sound more luxury, casual, or formal feedback-style, I’m happy to refine it.

Really nice stay. £100 for the executive room and it’s well worth it for a quiet sleep and a gigantic comfortable bed. Normally really bothered by other guests being noisy when staying in a hotel but we didn’t notice that here must have good sound proofing. Breakfast is nice and has all things you would expect, full English options, cereals, fruit, coffee etc. £5 taxi or 15 minute walk to the centre of Leeds.

Haven't stayed in a bedroom here but had a great works Xmas do last Friday. Food was lovely and service was friendly. The DJ additionally played some very good music. Free parking after 18:00 round the corner on Sweet Street which feels safe enough especially as I have an older vehicle. Those who stayed over reported a positive experience with the rooms, the blackout curtains being a godsend on Saturday morning.

I stayed here midweek on a business trip and had a very pleasant experience. The location is excellent around a 10-minute walk to the city centre, and the on-site parking is both convenient and easy to access. The staff were welcoming, professional, and genuinely helpful. I required a few documents to be printed, and they assisted straight away with no hassle, which was greatly appreciated. The gym is adequately equipped for a city hotel,offering everything needed for a cardio or resistance session. My room was clean, comfortable, and provided all the essentials, including an ironing board, toiletries, and tea and coffee facilities. The double bed wasn’t particularly large, but it was comfortable enough for a good night’s sleep. Overall, a reliable and well-managed hotel that delivers on service, comfort, and convenience. A great option for business travellers and anyone visiting Leeds for a short stay.

My family stayed at this lovely hotel during a recent visit to Leeds to see the pantomime at the Heritage Theatre, the hotel is in an ideal location and we could easily walk to the theatre and restaurants all situated within 15 minutes. The rooms were well set out and very comfortable. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed a cooked breakfast in the morning before checking out. The pantomime is an annual family trip, we have stayed at other hotels in previous years but will opt to stay at this hotel for our pantomime trip at the end of this year.
