Booked this Milford hotel for me and my husband as was attending Leeds festival, the hotel staff were very accommodating on arrival, I had contacted the hotel in advance about early checkin and as soon as we arrived our room was ready (at 12)
Even when we returned from the festival the man who was on the night desk had bags for our wellington boots.
The bar food in the water mill restaurant was very tasty too, Standard prices for a hotel - smoked salmon baguette with salad and crisps £6....

Such lovely friendly staff. It was a short stopover for us but we were so impressed by how lovely and friendly all the staff were whilst remaining totally professional. It was service with a smile in every encounter.
Lovely hotel we found by accident but will remember for the future. The public areas are smart and spacious and our room was comfortable and well considered. It’s not often I fell like making the effort to write a review but this hotel really took us by surprise for getting...

This was our second stay at Waterton Park and we were as pleased this time as we were after our first stay. This time our room was in the main hall - we had a spacious room which was pleasantly warm, beautifully furnished including a four poster bed. The bathroom was spacious with a walk in shower and full bath and was spotlessly clean. Staff our friendly and professional. Breakfast was included and was tasty and plentiful. Will definitely stay again.

Jason & Katlyn in particular but all the Marriott Staff were genuinely friendly & attentive.
The deluxe room was as depicted & described, with cleanliness levels to be applauded.
The Marriott Leeds, I would highly recommended for its central location, the incredible staff, doorstep retail diversity, & global cuisine dinning options all within easy walking distance.
We will be booking the Marriott Leeds again for our future visits to City.

We took our little boy for an over night stay and the illuminations and we all loved it. The resort view was great, the illuminations looked great at night from the room. The onsite amenities like the soft play and super child friendly resteraunt were great. We loved the everything about it and have already booked to come back at Christmas this year.

We love this hotel! Such friendly staff on reception and the concierge. Perfect location, rooms are well equipped and quiet. Love the cocktail bar. Only downside for us was breakfast but now we book room only and eat elsewhere.
