We had a really good experience staying at the Bradford Central Premier Inn. The hotel was clean,…read moreservice was excellent and overall had a great stay! I'd stay here again without question and would highly recommend it! The only reason that I didn't give it a 5 star rating was because we were in a big group and there is not a lot of lobby space/space to sit and chill. This meant we weren't able to spend as much time together hanging out.

We checked into our room to discover the air conditioning wasn't working and called down to the…read morefront desk. They stated that they knew some of rooms didn't have working AC, but our room wasn't one of them. We thought they would send someone up to check the error code, but after a while, since it was getting late, we called again. This time we were told that the manager said the AC was working. How someone who hadn't been to the room could determine if something was working, I'll never know. So we asked if we could at least get some fans to move the air around since we had opened a window. Finally someone, we assumed the night manager, brought 2 fans, looked at the AC and declared it broke, then quickly left. I went to take a shower to cool off and found dirty soap scum on the wall. Eventually the room cooled down, but because our room faced the street, it was some what noisy with the window opened and thus it wasn't the most restful night. In the morning I went to make coffee and discovered one of the spoons set out were dirty. In all, I would suggest finding other accommodations until management improves. It is quite a shame, since the room and bathroom were quite roomy and updated, plus the hotel has a nice little café, so there is so much future potential for the hotel.

Whatever pleasantries this hotel has are just on the surface. You would think that the worst thing…read morethat could happen to this hotel is that it's located in the center of Bradford. It's bad, don't get me wrong, but the actual worst part of this hotel is the way it's run. On the surface, it looks okay, but give it more than a cursory glance and there's so much wrong with it. The lobby area looks ok, but it's actually in need of a good refurb. The furniture is tatty, stained and worn. The reception staff seem polite, but they're actually inept, inefficient and outright lie to the guests. Some rooms are closed due to water leaks. Unless the hotel fills up, then hope you don't win the damp room lottery. The lifts always smell like some awful combination of alcohol, stale food and body odor. The rooms are actually reasonably clean and well-appointed, but everything else is an assault on your senses. So much noise from the hallways, from out in the street, from the reception area, from the other guests. Rotting garbage smell from outside the window and steaming curry and chips clouds wafting up when the pubs let out. It seems a lot of cheapskate groups like school trips and budget wedding parties from the area like to stay at the Jury's Inn because it's cheap. Really, they should pay people to stay in Bradford, not the other way around, so that justifies the low rates I guess. You know it's a bad hotel when you'd rather go outside and take in the pleasant surrounds of Bradford City Center than stay in your room and listen to the people in your corridor slamming doors and running up and down the hall. Another delightful bonus is the drunken serenade you get from your window between 2am and 6am. The only thing that earns this hotel even half a star or indeed my effort in writing this review is that the cleaning staff are very pleasant despite what I'm sure is an immensely challenging job in such a dirtbag place. They are always friendly and accommodating and really helped to make our stay better in any way they could. That's incredible considering they probably spend most of their time scraping vomit from drunken yobs off the carpets. At least the WiFi is good.

After the pre wedding formalities the bar opened and starters were served (seekh kebab, chicken tikka, chana masala and aloo tiki). Then the DJ played and the piece de resistance was a set by the legendary Punjabi Bhangra singer Sardara Gill- what class and nostalgia!! Dinner was then dished up by way of buffet service and was again superb (chicken masala, daal, rice, vegetable tawa, naan and sweet was rasmalai). The dancing then carried into the night!!

My partner and I travelled down from Glasgow to this hotel last October to attend my partner's…read moremum's wedding. When booking the room we used the notes section to inform the hotel that we were with the wedding party but that it was also 21st birthday celebrations during our stay. Therefore we asked if they could do anything special it would be greatly appreciated. We got a lot more than we expected! We were upgraded to the deluxe suite (which was lovely!), given a birthday card and some chocolates. We were so pleasantly surprised! It also made a lovely environment for getting all glammed up ready for the wedding. The next morning we also found out we had been given a complimentary breakfast - which is usually priced at £10pp. Therefore our already cheap stay of £34.20 was becoming a massive bargain!! Kindness and generosity of this type is few and far between but really made for a very welcoming and relaxing stay. Especially when we were getting up the night after the wedding to a 4 and a half hour drive back to Glasgow! The sleep quality of the suite was simply amazing - and the black out blinds really did their job - I couldn't believe it was 9 am when I woke up, I thought it was the middle of the night! Thank-you very much Cedar Court for such a lovely treat and making us feel like VIP guests! I would definitely recommend to those staying in the area. Whether it is just a room whilst you're visiting family, a business event or a wedding - they're sure to meet your needs. Very impressed.

The showers were great with a whole host of body products, soft towels and hair dryers galore. the down side to the facilities was the steam room smelled of ming and left a bad taste in ones throat that water couldnt shift, it left me begging for a toothbrush and toothpaste. with minor trauma we had afternoon tea with a extra side order of extremely chunky crisp chips. my friend and i were fit to burst with this divine banquest of tea, scones pastries and cakes with tidy little finger sanwiches, this feast was heaven sent after our day of lounging. we left full to the brim and very content with our lavish adventure. I would recommend this place but smell the steam room before you dive in xx The staff were friendly and were lovely when it came to ensuring a fish and nut free banquest for my friend (thumbs up)

Whilst we were only there for one night we were made to feel very welcome and staff wanted to help us at every opportunity. The room we were given was at the reat of the hotel so a bit of a trail from the lifts but that wasn't too much of a problem for us. It was clean, and the bathroom was well stocked with towels, etc. The breakfast was just what we needed before a day wandering around nearby Leeds, they offered frully cooked items and cold selections. Only minor point was having to wait a bit too long for a pot of tea. All in all I would go back but make sure you get a good deal on the price!

I have stayed at this Holiday Inn 3 times in the last 2 years and each time I am surprised about how bad the facilities are. Firstly, the window always sound like they are open and are very drafty. You really need to keep the radiator on, even if its not that cold outside. The TV's date back to the 1990's and there is not even a main light in the rooms. So when you are in the room in the evening, there is only a dim corner light available to light the room, which is not very nice! There are two good things, firstly Breakfast is included, which is always nice and secondly there is free wi-fi available for all guests, you just have to ask. That is very useful I must say! Overall, its really not the nicest place to stay!

They provided a free room and PA system all we paid for was the meal and wine. The service was outstanding and the portions of superbly cooked food enough to satisfy any gargantuan appetite. Martin held control and in his own inimitable laid back style mastered the evening, truly amazing. The facilities at the Parkway gave our out of town guests the opportunity of using it as a base to visit family and/or the tourist attractions which they all took advantage of. A particular guest has back problems, the Parkway sorted out her bed and she had a wonderful stay. One can ask for nothing more.
