This is a quick review of the Leeds Marriott Hotel. I was half-way through my £100 off £300 Amex cashback offer and needed to find a participating Marriott property to fulfil the spend requirement. I didn’t want to travel far, and Leeds Marriott came to my attention.
The hotel sits in front of the Trevelyan Square. It is very close to the train station and Trinity shopping centre.
The lobby and restaurant:
I received an upgrade to an executive room on the top (sixth) floor, which is actually a corner room.
The room is bright with large windows on two sides of the walls.
Here’s the problem though: noise level here can be really bad. The rail tracks are 50-ish yards away. And as if that’s not enough, there are many bars and pubs just around the corner.
I complained the next morning and they moved me to a double-double room which is sort of interior facing. It is a lot better.
Set-up of the executive lounge is a bit strange. It’s like another boutique lobby inside the lobby area.
Presentations are nice, but it is a very small lounge. You can imagine it being very busy in the evening.
Soft drinks, fruits and coffee machine are available throughout the day.
Happy hour is hosted between 5.30pm and 7.30pm. Two hot dishes and a decent spread of canapes are on offer.
Breakfast in the main restaurant isn’t comp’ed, but you can have it in the executive lounge.
It is an average Marriott hotel you expect in this country, and there’s nothing particularly good or bad. If you are a light sleeper and sensitive to noises though it may not be for you.
