Hotels Near Dino Jaws in Leeds

It was in a great location being minutes away from the train station, city centre and the arena so would definitely recommend if that is what you are wanting. It was clean throughout but in areas could have done with an extra go over, although the service provided was brilliant, always someone at the desk to help and very helpful also. The only thing my partner and I picked up on is that the amenities wasn't all that good, for the price of the stay there could've been more. But overall it was a good hotel to stay in.

I booked to stay here last minute rather than getting a late train back home after meeting friends for dinner. It ended up being on the day that the Queen passed away so it's a hotel that I'll remember for a long time! - great value for money - think I paid £83 for the night including breakfast - hotel (including the room I stayed in) was very clean - room had everything I needed for a comfortable stay - amazing location (close to the train station and the city centre) Teeny tiny negative: - breakfast room service option was limited to bacon / sausage sandwiches (however I left a note on the order card cheekily asking for a chocolate croissant - which wasn't an option - and they very kindly sent one up with my veggie sausage sandwich!) As a Mum to a 10 month old, I'm usually up at 6.30am - so a chocolate croissant in bed at 9am was an absolute treat! It's the little things as they say - and definitely warrants a 5/5 review!

My Only Hotel in Leeds City Center. Have stayed there now on a few occasions and can't fault the experience. Early check in if room available . Also check out at 12 noon and not 11am like most other Hotels. Their restaurant serves great food and room service can't be faulted. Will be back again shortly would definitely recommend.

The booking and check in service was easy to follow which was a relief. I found this hotel to be clean and presentable throughout. The room was clean, relatively spacious and a lovely working shower. The staff in this hotel went the extra mile to make my stay as comfortable as possible. Every staff member I approached was friendly and helpful. An quality experience in a value hotel.

We were simply intrigued by this unusual place when we were looking for somewhere to stay near Leeds recently. We drove up the drive and followed the well signposted route to the ample, free car park near the main building in the grounds here. Check in was done quickly with a friendly chap who was happy to help us explain where everything was in this unusual hotel cum religious conference centre. I had a single room Room 37 on the 1st floor that could have been mistaken for a modern monk's cell. There was a single bed pushed up against the wall. There was also a tiny desk and chair & a tiny flat screen TV mounted on the wall. There was a small bedside table with a reading lamp. In the separate small, but functional bathroom the shower worked well, there were sufficient toiletries and some good quality, thick white towels. There were enough sockets and the free WiFi worked well Whilst there were no tea or coffee making facilities in the room, downstairs there were a number of machines for making your own hot beverage. I can recommend the hot chocolate just before turning in for the night. Breakfast was in a dining room on the ground floor and it was surprisingly good with a good choice of cereals, yoghourts, juices etc. and a counter bordering the kitchen where you could select the items for your full English breakfast. Tea and coffee was readily available. Even though we were only here for one night, we had everything we needed for a comfortable overnight stay. Oh, and whilst it is set off away from the hub bub of modern life, you only have to walk down to the bottom of the drive to find a large Wetherspoons pub and further right, down the road, a selection of pubs and restaurants.

Friendly staff. Lovely big room. Very comfortable bed. Superb shower. Amazing view of the ground in the morning. Very handy for cricket, RL, the Brudenell and Hyde Park Picture House. Plenty of pubs nearby and not far from Leeds’ hidden secret - Lupe’s Mexican Cantina

The hotel is located on a motorway services which is handy as it has a food court next door with lots of different food options. It is just under 4 miles from the centre of Leeds; about 10-15 minutes by car. The look of the hotel is modern with a nice feel to it. They have a restaurant on site (which we didn't eat in) and an essentials/snack stand which is good for any forgotten bits or late night snacks. The hotel isn't very big with just 1 floor of rooms and this is accessible by lift or stairs. The room we had was a standard room and, for 1 night, it was perfect for us! There was everything you could need including a hairdryer, iron and ironing board, a safe and extra pillows. The bathroom also had hand-wash and body wash. Nice view over the rear garden/children's play area with fantastic blackout curtains! Decent TV with free view channels. Tea and coffee making facilities and loads of plug sockets including some next to the beds ...win win!! A little more attention to detail regarding cleaning as there was a fair amount of dust on the top of the mirror and some marks next to the sink in the bathroom. A great little addition would be restaurant/bar food and drink options and times in the room to look over when you arrive!

We booked a twin accessible room using IHG points. When we checked in we were told it is not available - its been allocated to someone else. It was a very fraught check in - husband wanted to punch someone & I was on the verge of tears. Why do they think we booked an accessible room - for fun???? I NEED an accessible room because I am disabled. We were also 2.5 hours from home. To give him his due Jay on reception asked us to wait while he checked things out. He offered us a drink from the bar but as hubby thought we might have to drive home he refused. We also had plans with son to go out to eat that evening. Eventually Jay said he had a double accessible room which we gratefully accepted. The window in the room, was in full sun, did not even open a crack which on a day where temps had reached 34 degrees was not ideal. We rang reception and they said they would get us a fan, which then had an electrical fault and only worked if you wiggled the wire - not ideal and pretty dangerous in my opinion. The ‘included breakfast” was a joke as we were told there was nothing hot but a continental breakfast. As a T1 diabetic who counts carbs croissants, muffins, cereal is not ideal so it was just banana for me. As the hotel was full it was also very busy and no tables available - took my banana and bailed out. Car park was close by & a reasonable price. There were a couple of restaurants close by. Aircon in the bar was lovely and the complimentary glass of wine was very good. It was quiet during the night and the accessible bathroom was great. I still can’t believe that they allow you to book an accessible room then give it to other customers.

We arrived on Saturday 1st of October around 2pm having driven up from Birmingham. We checked in ( having booked a superior room) which apparently entitled us to a free coffee, a bottle of water and a free biscuit during our stay. Upon arrival we asked if we could eat in the restaurant as we were hungry. We were told it was shut, then it was open, then it was shut, nobody seemed to actually know. We wandered in and were seated and told by someone ( who I think must have been their first day) that MAYBE we could eat. It was getting a little ridiculous by now. YES, indeed we could eat. Great. He came back to take our order having not given us a menu. Eventually someone else who seemed a little more clued up gave us scruffy photocopies of about the five dishes we could choose from, when i mentioned the menu I had seen in reception seemed a little more varied he replied in a pleasant but not even vaguely apologetic manner ” oh yes we haven't got a proper chef in so we have a very limited menu”. Hmm, right, so we ordered a pizza and some fries to share with a couple of soft drinks. In fairness we didn't have to wait too long and it was tasty enough and filled a hole. We then negotiated a long queue in reception to get the lift up to our room. EXCEPT WE COULDN'T. Because the door TO the lift would not open with the key card we had. Neither would it open for the receptionist with HER key.. she then got us another which got us through the door to the lift, lift safely deposited us on our floor, we got to our room, only to find our key wouldn't open our door. Our door to our ”superior” room. Great. Except it wasn't because now my other half had to go down back to the reception and explain this, a task not made any easier by what seemed, on first glance, to be half of Spain populating the reception area. Never mind, no matter, so now he has to run up seven flights of stairs to get back to our room because he couldn't get into the lift. Ok, right, so NOW we are into our room, which did not turn out to be in any way superior and exactly what you would expect in any budget hotel and not even as spacious. It had all the basics, just soap and shower gel in dispensers ( not very superior) it was clean and the bed was comfortable. The tv was a night mare to negotiate and one of the lights did not work. No matter, we only changed and slept in the room. All in all the visit was pretty much comedy and, while we didn't pay a fortune for it things that work ( like room keys) and people who knew what was open or shut ( like restaurants and menu details) MAY have been nice. I knew we should have done Premier Inn for less because the Jury's DEFFO in on this, and we found it guilty on several counts. Shame.

Having stayed at this place sooo many times when travelling for work (must be 50+ times over the years!) I thought time for a review! In addition to this being OUTSTANDING VALUE and handily placed on the M62, I can't recommend the place and the staff enough. I've stayed at all the Days Inns in the UK and this is amongst my favourites. I was (and usually am) checked in by Suri who's helpful & cheerful but the whole team's great. Whilst the Days Inns (and Ramadas) in the UK are fairly basic though, my main reason for staying at them is for the Wyndham Rewards programme .... the points mount up quickly and often fund our family holidays abroad to stay in far more luxurious settings! The rewards programme is generous if you often stay away / on the road
