History

Storm Jameson Court was opened in 2010 and was built to a very high specification, with students of the future in mind, as well as conference delegates and short break guests. This high-quality residence is named after Margaret Storm Jameson, an alumnus of the University who went on to write more than 45 books.

One of the main criteria was to produce a highly accessible building. Again, this supports the University's accessible aims to offer university education to everyone equally. But it is also placed in Leeds a unique building, with 20 accessible bedrooms, which would appeal to any individuals or groups, who normally have to make do with unadapted, standard hotel bedrooms.

Food & beverage

The bedrooms are sold on a room-only basis (equipped with tea and coffee-making facilities), but a wide range of self-serve breakfast fare is available for purchase from the University Refectory, just 100 metres from Storm Jameson Court.

Guests have access to fridges in the adjacent kitchens but please note, that cooking is not possible.

Grounds & Gardens

Storm Jameson Court is one of a group of buildings forming Charles Morris Hall. It is sited on the attractive and historic campus of the University of Leeds in a very attractive area alongside tree-lined Victorian and Edwardian streets. The campus has many fine buildings, from the wonderful Victorian Great Hall, designed by Alfred Waterhouse, and the art deco Parkinson Building to the contemporary Marjorie and Arnold Ziff Building.

The grounds of the University are open for guests to stroll around and enjoy tree-fringed piazzas and avenues, or to relax by the fountains at the southern end of the campus by the Roger Stevens Building.

The University campus has many fully accessible routes to all areas, with ramps and automatic or electric doors to buildings.

A very pleasant stay. The building was clean and quiet and had everything I needed. If anything, the housekeeping staff outdid themselves - kept giving new towels when I hadn't asked - but it's not really a negative. Only down side was the night porter, who didn't seem very helpful, and the WiFi...

Had a lovely stay, rooms had everything we needed and were great value. Only slight improvement would have been to have the 3 rooms we booked next to eachother as we had requested when booking. Not a major problem though as we're all on the same floor. Thanks for a great stay

Everything great apart from the constant hum of something (machinery?) outside all night. I don't know what it was and whether it was permanent or temporary but in all honesty it would put me off staying there again. Maybe it's me. it might not bother others.

Really good place and absolutely amazing for the price and would be staying here again whenever I'm going to Leeds.
