Situated just off the M62 and M606, our Bradford Hotel sits at the heart of one of the region's most connected business corridors, with easy reach of both Bradford city centre and Leeds. The hotel is a substantial operation with 131 bedrooms, a busy restaurant and bar, extensive conference and events facilities, and on-site leisure. We serve a varied mix of guests from corporate, conferences, events, weddings through to leisure breaks.

If you're looking to build experience across different areas of hospitality, or to develop within a well-established hotel that invests in its people, Cedar Court Bradford is a strong place to do it.
