As a financial centre, Leeds is used to providing accommodation fit for business but with an ever-increasing amount of tourists looking for hotels in Leeds, new types of accommodation have emerged. Sleek, modern luxury can be found in the form of Dakota Delux but for the more traditional taste The Queens Hotel, found in the heart of the city centre, is an integral part of the city’s landscape. For the younger traveller or those more artistically inclined East Street Art’s Art Hostel offers a cheaper room within a hub of creativity. One of the many benefits of Leeds is that you are never too far away from green space; only a short drive out of the city centre there are several luxury and modest hotels to be found in idyllic rural settings. Meaning that you can easily access the heart of Leeds whilst staying within the picturesque Yorkshire countryside.
Whatever the weather, we’ve got tonnes of new art for you to enjoy. This month we bring you lots of choice: from large, all-encompassing displays to smaller and equally as interesting shows to suit all tastes.
Live literature has plenty for readers and writers alike this spring, with emerging names and established authors taking to a mic near you, along with the opportunity to perform or put pen to paper yourself. There’s lots to listen to in real life and there are still opportunities to join in to events online. Read more here…
