Whilst walking down Queen Street in the sleat and snow I decided I really needed a coffee and…read moresomewhere to warm myself up. The Queens Hotel is a pub/bed and breakfast that looked big and cosy so i thought I'd give them a try. On entering, I was stared at slightly suspiciously (however, this may have been due to my bright red coat, bright yellow boots, and bright ginger hair) and I did feel a little uncomfortable. It was very quiet, and their were some local men propping up the bar as like in many traditional pubs in Leeds. I felt I had disturbed the peace a little, but it was warm, big and cosy as predicted so I just got on with ordering my coffee. The drink was £1.20 and delicious, (much better than my over milky Morrisons cafe disaster the other day) and it came with one of those straw shaped biscuits with the swirly chocolate inside. Mmm. Perfect and exactly what I needed. The interior of the place was very dated, like most of Moorley, but I found it charming. With thick floral carpets covering the floor and even the base of the bar, it felt warm and cocooned. Pictures and decorative bits and bobs covered the walls and beams which made it feel balanced and inhabited, but not cluttered or too busy. Drinks wise, I noticed that they do a small selection of red and white wines, bottles priced at £8.50 each, a huge selection of spirits around 2.10 a single, and the mainstream beers and bitters on tap. As for the Bed and Breakfast, I haven't stayed here but the website tells me that it is £18 per night per person or £22 pnpp including an evening meal. I have included a photo of the upstairs area for you to see. The kitchen is open Tuesday - Saturday 11am till 2pm and they do a senior citizens lunch deal of £3 between 11am and 12pm.

I have to say that given the exterior, I was expecting the interior to be much grander!

The reception and function areas are quite grand, but the bedrooms could do with a bit of a revamp. Still, there was a nice view of City Square and the proximity to the train station is obviously a bonus. Mum was in a twin room, which had two quite large single beds and all the amenities you'd expect from a hotel room - TV, coffee and tea making facilities and the bathroom was quite nice too. Quite a nice place all in all.

The street is full of lovely houses and most importantly right next to 'The Ridge', a lovely woodland area perfect for dog walking, a jog, or a just a picturesque breath of fresh air. The building used to be the home of a local mill owner and was converted into a hotel 'quite some time ago'. After the new owners spent some time refurbishing it The English Tourist Board updated it's star rating from 3* to 4*. From having a quick look round it's not my exact type of taste, however, I do think it looks incredibly comfortable and would be much to the taste of many looking for a quiet spot to stay in whilst they visit Leeds. Maybe parents visiting for their offspring's graduation or something like that.

The décor leaves so much to be desired it is untrue, sometimes inconspicuous the ugly, obscure nature of some things smack you round the face like a right hook from a heavy-weight. Rooms and communal areas are clean and tidy, the reception is someone's office where you feel you are about to be told off by a headmistress. Breakfast is good and the staff friendly if a little inefficient. Be aware, turning into this hotel may result in taking a chunk of your car out and leaving on the brick work of the entrance gate.

Two rooms were clean and tidy, but daughters had peeling wallpaper and was generally rather tatty, though mainly clean. Beds were comfortable enough Some of the public areas were also in need of attention. The owner was very amiable and friendly. When we went down for breakfast , all the tables were occupied. Had to wait about 15 mins, then we had to split up into two tables. The food however was good. Could be a good hotel if the owner spent a bit of money on tidying it up, and paid attention to some other details. But it served our purpose well, it was walking distance from the Mansion, and we only really need a bed for th enight and some breakfast

However, when I rang the hotel owner to ask for directions, she was really friendly and even stood outside to make sure we found it. The hotel itself was very homely - in fact, almost like someone's house, and I instantly felt at home. Our room was right at the top of the building and we were surprised to discovered that we'd actually been given a suite - not just the bedroom and bathroom, but also 3 other bedrooms, containing a total of 9 beds! It was very bizarre, but the rooms were all clean and comfortable and I would certainly recommend it. It was also good value - £45 for bed and breakfast for two.
