Plus points - the building itself, entrances and public rooms are Victorian era and really beautiful. The staff are really friendly, check in and check out were efficient and informative. If you are visiting the city centre the location is great, next door to Bradford Forster Square station. Well stocked bar and lots of places to sit in the lobby and landing areas. WiFi worked fine and they have a dedicated room if you need to work and lots of meeting rooms. Lift up to all floors from reception. Sufficient free parking and easy to get to. Nice toiletries, really powerful shower, full size bath, big, fluffy towels and decent hairdryer. Tea, coffee, biscuits, kettle, iron and ironing board also supplied in the room. Comfortable bed (for me - the bed is very firm so obviously this is down to preference!), good pillows, mattress and pillow protectors on bed and linens all very clean. Really thick lined curtains. Cons - our room was quite small and was looking a little shabby. I didn't get any photos but it didn't quite live up to the public areas of the hotel. The building is old and when the people upstairs were moving around we could hear the floorboards creak and the plumbing is a little loud. The sash window only opens a few inches which seems pretty standard in most hotels - it would have been useful to have something to prop it open - I ended up using my shoe! TV was quite small but fine and good selection of channels available, due to the room size and layout it was at a great spot for one side of the bed, not so much for the other! We didn't eat at the hotel so I can't comment on the restaurant. Overall if you are visiting Bradford city centre I would recommend for the price.
Enjoyed my stay, the service was excellent and everyone was very friendly. The room service was no trouble and I ate in the dining area near the bar. I cannot fault my 3 days. The bed was soooo comfy and all amenities were met. Yes it is an old building but that adds to the charm. A few bits need updating but that is what the form is for in the room to report anything you think needs looking at. Overall I will definitely stay again.

I checked in with friend. I went to the shop at 11.30 & It took me 20 mins to get back in ( no security on desk) the room itself smelt musty & due to health problems & the smell I stayed with friends & my friend stayed in the hotel on her own. Good access to Bradford city center. It was Saturday 18 may. We came for the widrush event in the square & the room no was 217 I hope this helps.
