Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- KaynChrisLeeds, UK106 contributionsWhile my husband visited his mum at St James hospital.
I decided to take our 20mth old Granddaughter to the Sparks play area.
We didn't visit the museum part as she's a little to young but its something to consider when a bit older.
She had loads of fun at Sparks.
They have lots of pretend play things as well as a soft play area.
Lots of fun..😍
There is also a cafe and little gift shop ..Written 20 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Looked small when we arrived but spent nearly 3 hours there with a 10 and 7 year old so good value for money too. Lots of puzzles and games kept us all entertained.Written 22 February 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Catherine KWakefield, UK11 contributionsI can't rate the family workshops at the Discovery Centre highly enough! The activities are always well thought out and delivered by extremely knowledgeable staff, who are happy (and able!) to answer any question thrown at them by the children! The family workshops generally comprise an hour of learning and activities followed by an hour in the stores, exploring the items relating to the workshop topic. The stores are full of over a million items that are not currently on display in Leeds' other museums, and I think you could probably explore for a month and still see something different every day! Every single visit is awe-inspiring, and captures the imagination of young and old. Anyone who lives in Leeds and hasn't yet visited should put the Discovery Centre on their 'must see' list. I keep promising myself a midweek lunchtime visit, but without the children!Written 8 August 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
