Convenient, comfortable good value overnight stay.
Pros:

Friendly, helpful welcome at reception spacious warm and comfortable room with walk in shower.
Adequate hot and cold selection at breakfast.
Bus and train transport hub yards away with less than 10 minutes walk into town centre. The hotel was situated above a cinema complex with a couple of food outlets opposite but this did not detract from a comfortable convenient overnight stay, would recommend if staying in Bradford.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

Celkově dobrý hotel, příjemný personál, dobrá lokace v centru města. Prostorná sprcha, dobrý servis. Snídaně skromnější, každý den stejná, ale dobrá.

Cons:

Postel pro 2 byla spíše větší postel pro jednoho. Museli jsme objednat pokoj s rozloženou druhou postelí, což nám hned dali, nicméně pokoj byl za příplatek.

Convenient
Pros:

Breakfast was standard, as any other Holiday Inn. The proximity to city centre and shops is good.

Cons:

Furniture in the room was smelling, especially the sofa. There aren’t enough plug points either. None by the bed to charge a mobile for the alarm.
