A spokesperson for West Yorkshire Police said: “A 17-year-old male suffered stab wounds and was taken to Leeds General Infirmary for treatment. He remains there in a stable condition.

“Three males aged 19, 20 and 25 have been arrested in connection with this incident and remain in police custody. Enquiries are ongoing.”

A spokesman for the hotel said they would not be commenting while there was an ongoing investigation but that they would be assisting the police in any way they could. The hotel remained open.

The hotel’s website describes the business as a family-run hotel in a “beautiful period property” catering for the “needs of all travellers.”

It says there are 12 en-suite rooms.
