The Northern city of Leeds is rarely recognised for the gem that it is.
People don't always seem to realise quite what a great city it is.
Many people from the local area and further afield visit the city for the day, but there's just too much to do in one day.
Get a hotel, Leeds has plenty! Those people who don't believe there is enough to do to make it worthwhile getting a hotel in Leeds will be intrigued to read a few facts about the city.
Firstly Leeds is actually quite the cultural hub: it's the only English city apart from London to have its own repertory theatre, opera house and ballet companies.
It is also home to a spectacular art gallery and dozens of museums.
What is great about the offering of museums in Leeds is that there are also museums which cater for curious children as well as adults.
As well as all this, Leeds is home to the Royal Armouries, the nation's collection of arms and armour which makes for a fascinating day out in itself.
Secondly, the city has a long and interesting history.
For example, did you know that Leeds has more listed buildings than any other English city outside of London? This impressive fact demonstrates the beauty and variety of the architecture on offer.
The shopping is also fantastic.
There are actually five miles of shopping streets in the city centre and a massive pedestrian zone.
Large, national department stores mingle with smaller, independent boutiques to create a shopping experience that's second to none.
And here's the real reason you need a hotel: Leeds' nightlife.
The city has a fantastic array of bars, clubs and restaurants to try out, so you'll need a night or two to take it all in! As for deciding where to stay over, many sources suggest that perhaps the most luxurious hotel Leeds has to offer is the Queens.
The hotel is a beautiful building, centrally located close to the main shopping streets and the train station.
