Leeds hotel unveils "opulent" restaurant and bar following £16m revamp
A Leeds hotel that has recently undergone a multi-million pound refurbishment has unveiled its new restaurant partner.
The Queens Hotel Leeds, part of The QHotels Group, has announced its new partnership with Living Ventures’ Raffles-inspired restaurant and bar, Grand Pacific.
The news comes following the hotel’s £16m transformation ahead of its planned opening this summer.
Grand Pacific will comprise a 100-cover restaurant, private dining rooms and bar, and will offer a range of British and international fusion cuisine.
The restaurant “aims to recreate the golden age of high society with a sumptuous yet relaxed charm accompanied by great service”.
Richard Moore, group chief executive of The QHotels Group, commented: “We are thrilled to finally reveal the exceptional food and drink offering we’re bringing to The Queens.
“With such a rich history, it seemed only fitting to bring on board a partner who celebrates the grandeur of times gone by but with that all important contemporary twist.
“Throughout the refurbishment we have retained historical details that make the hotel so special but have introduced elements such as the social hub that accommodate and celebrate the new way people use hotel spaces.”
Chairman of Living Ventures, Jeremy Roberts, added: “We are delighted to bring this beautiful space back to life, echoing the glorious history of The Queens Hotel.
“Its heritage as a place to relax, eat, drink and just enjoy some of the pleasures of life simply oozes from the walls. It is our privilege and pleasure to let it continue to be what it was always meant to be.”
