ibis Budget Sheffield Centre St Marys Gate
The room was clean to an extent but we had our stuff damaged in our room and medication missing which was life threatening. Breakfast wasn’t good at all horrible and dry not taste to nothing. Staff weren’t hopefully at all and the bar had nobody at it at all. Wouldn’t recommend staying here again ...

ibis budget Sheffield Arena
The rooms were lovely and clean, parking was not intuitive but the staff put us right as soon as we checked about it. The breakfast was not our typical food, although the coffee was great. We would stay again as the location was perfect for our needs and the staff excellent.
