My room including bathroom was very clean and spotless. Check-in was fast and friendly even though they had two trainee employees but check out staff wasn’t friendly. Check-in and check out lift wasn’t working (out of service) was a nightmare going upstairs to the 3rd floor and back for such a reputable Hotel rating that made me book it. After my functions climbing up to the 3rd floor tipsy was a nightmare.

For the price, I was happy with what I got. Lift was out of order and because I was on the third floor, they offered me free breakfast, which was nice. The hotel has seen better days and is in need of a spruce up, but if you want a cheap stay, close the the train station, then this hotel is perfect.

Paid extra for a room with aircon but it made no difference to the temperature in the room. Fridge did not work. Decor of the room was appalling and very tired with threadbare carpet. Only room with aircon available was on the 4th floor and lift was out of order. There was an incident at the hotel on the morning I arrived and a police officer was sat outside the next room for the duration of the day. No one would disclose details of the incident so it was slightly unnerving having an office sat outside a room just a few feet away from my door. Bathroom was modern and drenching shower was very good. Evening meal and breakfast were very good. Staff were friendly, very helpful and could not fault them.

Beautiful building and excellent staff

The building is beautiful. High ceilings and original fixtures make this a special place to stay. Located in a great location near to transport, shops, restaurants and bars. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. Shannon and the other staff are friendly and efficient and made our stay enjoyable. Food was tasty in the restaurant. Breakfast in morning was good and again the staff serving were friendly. The room had everything we needed and a fantastic view of the town hall. Comfy bed with nice cotton bedding and a large flat screen TV. We would stay here again if we are in the area. Very good value for money.

Hot, pokey - will not be rebooking.

Booked an executive room, told it was on the 4th floor with no working lift. Accepted a standard room on the 1st floor which was hot, poky (windows would not open) and on top of that the room next door started a conference call at 4.30am. Didn't get a good night's sleep.

Terrible check in experience. After getting the check in signature for a pre-paid booking via Expedia, the reception staff asked if we wanted to check in at all as the lift was broken and the room was on the 3rd floor. No apologies or even use of the word sorry. When expressed our frustration at being tricked into check in by taking the signature and then releasing the information on the broken lift, the staff member said he will call the police. When challenged to actually call the police, another staff member came out and managed the situation. It is bad enough to not provide an advertised service, it is even worse to then talk so arrogantly and threaten to "call the police"

Potential, but easy mistakes and oversights

Well located hotel - everyone else has mentioned the broken lift so we won't go there, assuming there's a shortage of engineers in Bradford. We were greeted by a receptionist who immediately walked off halfway through trying to check in - this was the first warning sign, although she was apologetic. The second apparently didn't understand our booking so we had to check in again in the morning; turns out it takes at least 3 receptionists to check in. The person in the morning was, however, very switched on and friendly. The main issue was being placed in an adjoining room as a single person. Very odd decision as the walls are paper thin and it generally made me nervous as I felt like I was in the room with the people next door - you can hear everything. Thankfully a more helpful person on reception agreed to move me on realising this wasn't a sensible placement after listening to the evening squabbling of my neighbours and realising it wouldn't be a great night's sleep. After that, the next room was fairly ok. Nice view, the bathroom is reasonably modern. Breakfast is certainly good. Adequate lodgings for a night or two. Stay ended on another staffing faux pas however as Housekeeping walk in on you despite a do not disturb sign. So in summary - perhaps some training / common sense decisions, as well as a lift engineer...?
