£10m refurbished hotel in the heart of Leeds Arena Quarter

Originally built in 1964 as the Merrion Hotel, the venue has undergone an extensive redevelopment programme to deliver a new contemporary 134 bedroom ibis Styles Leeds City Centre Arena hotel.

The hotel is ideally situated in the heart of Leeds’ Arena Quarter (which forms part of the Merrion Centre) and offers easy access to bars, restaurants and shopping plus attractions including the first direct Arena.

The hotel décor is inspired by Yorkshire culture but with a modern twist and the venues have transformed this area of Leeds and helped further establish the Arena Quarter.

The hotel offers free continental breakfast and unlimited WiFi free of charge throughout the hotel. A reduced parking rate is available at Citipark adjacent to the hotel.

The hotel is less than a mile from Leeds Train Station and only 5 minutes from the A58 inner ring road around Leeds City Centre via car.

We continue to enjoy the professional support that comes with such an alliance through cogent asset management and forward thinking around the value that can be realised.”
