Malmaison Leeds Hotel

UK

In keeping with Malmaison's boutique trademark, the Leeds edition - with its prime location, inviting interiors and British brasserie – is a great place to lay your head in the bustling Yorkshire city. Formerly the Leeds City Tramways office, you’ll find the impressive Victorian building in the heart of old industrial The Calls, with cultural hotspots and great restaurants within walking distance. Step beyond the rust facade and you’re greeted with exposed brickwork, caged lighting and oxblood leather loungers that pay tribute to the area’s industrial roots. Upstairs, 100 rooms are equipped with luxurious velvet finishes and statement wallpapers. Art fans should pick the Surrealism Suite for an eclectic take on its namesake. The Malmaison Bar & Grill serves up prime British beef, while the classic cooked breakfast won’t disappoint. Your city weekender, sorted.

Doubles from £85. 0113 426 0047, malmaison.com
