    Loved it here. A real gem. Beautiful, well kept room, super comfy beds, friendly staff and a glorious full English breakfast with black pudding and plenty of coffee! The room felt really quite posh compared to the premier inns if the world and the bath and shower were top quality. Definitely going here again.

    Very nice comfortable stay, lovely bed and bathroom. Delicious cooked vegan breakfast. Very impressed to be asked in advance if I wanted full English, Vegetarian or Vegan without having to ask myself. Lovely place, easy trip from Leeds Bradford airport. Very helpful proprietor and staff.

    I've not been there but my son in law and his son have just been over from Germany for a weekend after a family bereavement. They tell me that The Eagle is a wonderful hotel with a public bar, but is misnamed as a Tavern.

    Cracking little place to stay if you’re visiting Leeds. Very close to the centre. Proper little English pub and the breakfast was great

    The hotel is located within walking distance to the arena, so it's great for gigs. Our room was facing the main road, so there was a bit of traffic noise, but it was the proximity to the arena, which was the important factor. Room was ensuite, nicely decorated, pleasant and clean. There are no TV's in the bedrooms, but that was not an issue for us. Breakfast was really good and the staff were great.

    If you are going to Leeds to watch a gig at the arena then this is an ideal stopping point. The building has a lot of history so if you want ultra modern throughout then this is not the place. If you want a nice place to rest with excellent service, comfy bed and a lovely en suite bathroom then this is the place for you. Approx 10 minute walk from first direct arena. The breakfast served was delicious and good quality produce used. Surrounding area not the most nice of looking places. Windows are thin and road outside busy so traffic noise will be heard but its not the worst I've experienced. The hosts are lovely and the pub has a lot of character. Would happily return and stay again

    Old fashioned pub with bedrooms. It does what it says on the tin. Fine for budget accommodation. Chris took good care of us.

    Found by fluke I stopped here for a night when out cycle touring. It's a gem! The pub is a digital detox zone so no mobile phones(!), really welcoming & cosy. The ensuite rooms are a refreshing change from bland identikit hotels, are spotless and the breakfast was lovely. Loved it and if/when returning to Leeds won't hesitate to book again. Thank you ☺️

    My son has never been wrong with his pub recommendations and this was one of his best. Excellent beer, service and surroundings. If I didn't already live in Leeds I would like to stay here as well.

    Stayed one night in the rooms above. Very pleasant and walking distance from Leeds city centre. Decent breakfast too. Would stay here again.

    Nice little pub, has smoking area out back, fairly limited beer selection but all that's available is spot on πŸ‘

    Stayed here when in Leeds to see a concert and do some Christmas shopping. Very comfortable and clean rooms. Excellent breakfast, owner and staff couldn't do enough for us. Also thank you for the very kind gesture on my return from Concert. Within easy walking distance of both Arena and main shopping area. Would definately stay here again and would recommend to others. Small tip, if you are light sleeper take ear plugs as I always do, Tavern is on a busy road, but traffic did not bother us at all.

    Stayed here for the first time for Carnival. Really lovely welcome by the Landlady Joy. Lovely room, clean and comfy. Breakfast great, nothing too much trouble. We will be back! Thank you Joy and team. All the best Derek and Laura xx

    Highly recommended... don't let the fact its Sam Smiths put you off... this is a great pub and the rooms are very clean and well decorated. No TV which is a bonus and the use of mobiles in the bar is banned. Which means the art of conversation is promoted whilst enjoying the well kept beers. Lovely breakfast cooked by Jo... Nice and fresh... and thanks Claire for looking after us in the bar. We will be staying again...

    Excellent location for the arena. Lovely warm welcome. Great food and drink. Very oldy worldy which was nice change, very calming. Spacious rooms and lovely en suite. Very clean and everything has been done to a high standard. Would recommend πŸ‘Œ πŸ‘

    Friendly staff, lovely rooms and a brilliant full English. I would happily stay here again.

    This beautiful Inn is like an oasis that has withstood all the ravages of time. Once you are in this beautifully maintained place you feel like you have been whisked back to somewhere in the 19th century in the golden age of the great British Inn but probably with better beer and much cleaner air. The landlady here is a diamond and the beer is the best that Samuel Smith has to offer. Can't think of finer reasons to visit.

    Beautiful pub and rooms, very warm welcome from the staff & excellent breakfast. Great location for city centre too. Would definitely recommend & will be returning soon.

    So lucky to have found the Eagle Tavern after my partner and I found ourselves stuck in Leeds a couple weeks ago. Beautiful pub and rooms, great food and beer, and awesome welcoming staff! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay, cannot recommend this place enough, we will definitely be back!

    Recently stayed at The Eagle Tavern for 2 nights and can honestly say it is a wonderful place to stay. A short walk from Leeds city centre and literally on the door step of the Arena. The welcome was very friendly and the service was always with a smile. The room was spotlessly clean, really comfy bed and a proper power shower. What i loved was there was not a TV in the room and the bar was a phone & laptop free zone which meant the room was full of conversation .. brilliant. A simple well served and well cooked breakfast. Really can not recommend this gem of a place enough, great value for money will definitely be returning

    Fantastic value for money. A really personal touch from all the staff, who couldn't be more friendly and accommodating. The bedroom and bathroom were both really lovely and spacious, bed very comfortable and tons of hot water in the sumptuous bath and fab power shower. Downstairs the pub (a renovated period building) has a variety of little snug rooms and open fires, so felt very homely. Hard to believe that this gem is a 20 minute walk from Leeds City Centre!! We will certainly be back!!
