booking accommodation in Leeds
Leeds has a wide range of accommodation to offer visitors to the festival and conference, from bargain rooms at the Etap hotel to 5 star luxury at the Residence 6, or the international Radisson SAS as well as a range of comfortable bed and breakfast hotels just outside the city centre.
Because the bargain hotels are so much cheaper than the few university halls that are available so early in the summer, we have not booked hall accommodation for the festival/conference. Instead, we advise that you book accommodation early if you wish to stay in or near the city centre.

Higher priced:
-Park Plaza Leeds (10min)
-Leeds City Hilton (10min)
-The Queens Hotel (10min)
