ibis budget Sheffield Arena
Good location for the arena. Rooms were small and dated and not particularly clean. The continental breakfast was a poor choice as well. Staff member was always nice and friendly though.

ibis Budget Sheffield Centre St Marys Gate
Excellent hotel, a little walk from the station. The only problem was that we put the card on the door saying having a break. The cleaners came in anyway, and my autistic son had an episode and the police were called. The hotel itself is highly recommended though.
