Twelve of the best hotels in Leeds are giving their guests a free night's stay this summer as part of a new campaign that's been launched in the city centre.
The Be Our Guest campaign has been set up by Leeds City Council and hoteliers in the city to help boost tourism in the centre of Leeds after the events of the past eighteen months.
As part of the campaign, twelve of Leeds' favourite hotels are offering an extra night on the house - meaning if you book for two nights, you'll get a third free.
The first 100 people to take advantage of the campaign will also receive a hamper full of food and drinks made right here in Leeds.
The city centre hotels taking part in the scheme range from budget to high-end, with the cheapest options - Ibis Style and Discovery Inn - both priced at £120 for three nights.
At £160 for three nights, there's the Jurys Inn, Novotel, Westwood Hall, Clayton Hall and The Met to choose from. All four star hotels, each offer something different depending on what you're looking for.
If you want somewhere quiet for a retreat, Westwood Hall is a good choice. Sitting in one of Leeds nicest suburbs, it is built around a 17th-century manor house on 9 acres of country gardens.
The Metropole, or The Met, is another fine choice if you're treating yourself. This swanky red brick property has been ushering in well-heeled guests since the Victorian era.
Or, if you're going all out, luxury Leeds hotels the Malmaison and Radisson Blu are also taking part: offering a three night stay for just £200.
For those wanting to get involved, the offer will run until 2nd September and is valid between Sundays and Thrusdays.
"The city’s Be Our Guest campaign provides the perfect opportunity for visitors to Leeds to experience the city at its best, whilst also supporting our ambitions as a leading city break destination," said council deputy leader and member for economy, culture and education, Jonathan Pryor.
"Leeds is a resilient city and I am confident we will emerge from the pandemic stronger, which will benefit everyone who lives and visits here.
"We hope that our Be Our Guest campaign can enhance Leeds’ status as the perfect destination for a staycation, and are encouraging visitors to take advantage of this great offer by staying longer to explore Leeds and experience the vibrant spirit of our city."
LHVA chair Wayne Topley added: "It has been a punishing year for the hospitality industry and we are keen to get up and running once more, doing what we do, creating a comfortable, safe and welcoming environment for our guests and colleagues alike
"Initiatives such as Be Our Guest provide the perfect platform for us to showcase what we are really good at, both in terms of positive collaboration, and highlighting the sights, sounds and flavours of this great city...
"It is fantastic to see the city pulling together to show all that is truly great about Leeds. To my knowledge, this is the most coordinated campaign we have seen for many years."
