subject: Holiday Inn Leeds [print this page] The fastest growing city in UK and the largest city in Yorkshire, Leeds is a dynamic and historic city in which to live or work. The UKs top centre for business, finance and legal services outside London, and the only other city to have a branch of the Bank of England, business meetings are integral to its economy. We at Holiday Inn Leeds have 6 superbly equipped hotels in the Leeds/Bradford area, for both business events and private functions.
With a history of commerce dating back to the 5th century, Leeds is an eclectic blend of old and new. Together with neighbouring cities like Bradford and Wakefield, it has numerous preserved civic and industrial heritage buildings, as well as a stunning city skyline of modern office blocks and skyscrapers. It also has a number of museums, parks and sports venues, and to top it all the Yorkshire Dales is on the doorstep.
3 premier universities mean Leeds has a large student population, and the city is rife with nightclubs, bars and restaurants. It has a lively and eclectic arts scene, with a number of theatres, concert halls and festivals including Britains second largest West Indian carnival. Whether you are hiring meeting rooms for business or pleasure, there is always something to see or do, and we at Holiday Inn Leeds will happily help arrange corporate hospitality events or entertainment on your behalf.
With a growing economy heavily governed by the services sector, recent years have seen a massive increase in the number of legal, accounting, banking, insurance and recruitment firms coming to the Leeds area. It is also one of Britains leading internet centres; not surprisingly, full Wi-Fi access and the latest digital technology are essential features in our Holiday Inn business hotels.
We have several venues in the Leeds area with multiple facilities for conferences and functions. These range from small break-out areas and training rooms, to large conference suites able to seat several hundred people. Leeds has a large number of churches and civic centres, so our rooms are used for weddings and private functions as well.
The most important thing, for any meeting, is good transport connections. Luckily, Leeds is the transport hub for West Yorkshire, with excellent road and rail links to all major cities. In addition, Leeds Bradford International Airport connects to over 70 major European business destinations. Our Holiday Inn at Garforth has 19 meeting rooms, catering for up to 350 delegates. Close to the M1, it is just 17 miles from the airport. With 2 railway stations and a pleasant small town atmosphere, it is the perfect event location.
The Leeds conurbation includes the towns of Bradford and Wakefield, where there is a need for well equipped conference facilities. Our Wakefield premises are just 9 miles from Leeds city centre, and have the benefit of being close to several golf cubs as well as pleasant waterside walks. Our Bradford hotel is close to a golf course and parkland, with local attractions like majestic Manningfield Mill nearby. Our hotel in Brighouse is in a picturesque village setting close to the M62, and the perfect venue for weddings or business meetings if you want a quiet, but well equipped location.
