Spend 3 nights in this lovely B&B with welcoming and helpful staff a throwstone away from the city centre, University of Bradford and the train/bus station. Rooms are cosy and clean, breakfast generous and -mainly- organic and a lovely sunny garden included. Highly recommended - great value for money!

I stayed here for a couple of nights and it was reasonable ok. The guesthouse is very old and in urgent need of renovation and item-replacement (e.g the shower head and the bed light in my room were remediated with wires because they were slightly broken) but everything was clean and my overall stay was positive. To start with the... More

The overall impression of the exterior of the building is of a merchants house with extensive gardens,it just goes down hill from there. The interior is in desperate need of serious cleaning and effective maintenance the room we had for (thankfully) one night had the ceiling paper tacked in place with carpet tacks where a section had come away! the...

For the price the Ivy Guest House is not bad. Being very close to Bradford city centre with a friendly, obliging owner you can't expect much more for the price. The house is badly in need of a facelift, repair, and re-decoration. There are 10 rooms on offer, simply furnished with antique furniture. Tea, coffee, sugar, and uht milk packets... More

I stayed in a private room for one night. It's a guest house not a hotel - so don't expect private bathrooms or sterile conditions. For half the price of the standard chains I has a decent room in a quiet area - in close walking distance to the University (5 mins) and a cracking breakfast made to my specifications... More

The lady I spoke to on the phone was very pleasant and we gave card details for payment for a double and a twin room. The lady contacted... More

Stayed here for one night as I had an exam at the hospital (about a 5 minute walk away) the next day. Single room with TV and communal bathroom for £25. Not bad. Welcoming family and nice breakfast. Could use a spruce up but at this price you can't argue! I wouldn't recommend an extended stay here though.

Been coming to the B&B for 4 years now. Its a great little place very close to the centre of Bradford and a short walk to the uni. Its run by the Baggio family who have had it for years and they always make such a great effort to make me feel so welcome. The breakfast is included in the... More
