Mercure Leeds Parkway

The hotel complex is built in a faux-Tudor style although the rooms are modern inside. The nature of the building and its countryside location means that the hotel feels a little like a country house hotel but with the benefit of excellent transport links to central Leeds.

The hotel has 118 guests rooms arranged over five levels. All rooms have comfortable beds, a work desk, a flat-screen television, ironing facilities, tea and coffee making facilities and en suite bathrooms. The hotel’s Privilege and Superior rooms have a few little extras such as coffee machines, bathrobes and a free newspaper.

Three of the rooms are wheelchair accessible and there is also wheelchair access to most public areas of the hotel, except for the swimming pool.

The hotel’s lounge bar has an international menu in an elegant setting and room service is available 24 hours.

Feel Good Health Club includes a large gym, a swimming pool, a spa pool, sauna and steam room.

Free Wi-Fi wireless internet access is available throughout the hotel.

The hotel is surrounded by 52.5ha (130 acres) of parkland in the countryside 9km (5¾ miles) north of Leeds. Although there is not a lot of interest in the immediate area, there are excellent public transport connections to the city centre with the X84 bus route stopping outside and running every 15 minutes to central Leeds with a journey time of around 25 minutes.

Plenty of car parking is available, which makes this hotel a good option if you’re driving.
