Location
Bradford is a major city in West Yorkshire, located approximately 16 km (10 miles) west of Leeds, 24 km (15 miles) north-west of Wakefield and 61 km (38 miles) north-east of Manchester.
The city benefits from good road communications being served by the M606 which links with the M1, A1 and M6 via the M62 Motorway. The A629 also connects with Skipton to the north-west.
The city is connected to the national railway network and is served by two central train stations; Bradford Interchange and Bradford Forster Square which connect with intercity services to London (2 hours 50 minutes), Manchester (55 minutes) and further afield.
In addition, Leeds Bradford Airport is approximately 13 km (8 miles) north-east of the city and serves various destinations across the UK and Europe.
Bradford has been named as the winner of the hotly contested UK City of Culture 2025 competition. It is also a UNESCO City of Film and UNSECO World Heritage Site.

The Kirkgate Shopping Centre is five minutes’ walk from the hotel and is set to be replaced by “City Village”, a scheme including 1,000 homes and the creation of green space. This forms part of Bradford Council’s regeneration plans to transform the city centre.
