Verified Reviews of Small Venues in Leeds
Great service by the events manager Jay. Extremely helpful and attentive team. Incredibly sound system.
Very nice meeting space. Booking team were very helpful. During the meeting technical support was available so all went smoothly.
Beautiful venue, everyone commented how gorgeous it looked! The staff were great and did their best prior and on the weekend of our booking. Felt supported throughout the weekend despite being super busy and understaffed (though not fault of theirs) and for that, we'll consider using this venue again!
The Nyla's team were very helpful and quick to reply via email, so all our preferences were catered for. Soraya and the team also made everything so easy on the day, and were quick to help and try various solutions when we had a tech issue. The staff worked hard to keep drinks topped up, and the food was excellent. Soraya checked in on me during the event to make sure everything was running okay and to ask how we'd like things organised as the event got underway. Would highly recommend using this space for a function.
Thank you for a lovely evening. Excellent staff especially the bar staff who worked very hard. It was a nice space and they listened to our requests for turning down the music.
