It was lovely evening for a leader lead pre-planned walk with the water ways board . The time spent was enjoyable. My friend wasn't Kate but only just in time. She was puffing having got lost and me having to ask the leader to guide her to where we were, waiting. We couldn't stop what had been asked of us. ( To arrive in good time, Incase of an advent like my friends) but however, I settled her. And the walk proceeded. The pace for me was brisk. So my friend suggested I had back early, whilst the group went on and I said, I will see you when you catch up. The walk was there and back along the canal. So that was possible as the route was pretty much a straight line, there and back. Two leaders so I was surprised when one leader said come on I will turn back to. A steady pace was set by me , with no hesitation. We talked of casual things and our conversation was enjoyable. We waited at the benches and the whole group were back in no time. It's not the best if area's for getting lost. So plan ahead and arrive early , with your...

If you're planning a visit to Victoria quays then please be aware of the disgracefull state of the only designated car parking facilities. The Quays multistory (only yards from the basin) is by far the most disgusting dangerous place in the city. Apart from the liberal scattering of used hypodermic needles and unidentified glass viles that were scattered around, The non working lifts also had old dried blood and feces matter everywhere (on the top floor at least) Needless to say we decided to go no further and returned to our car. On our way out at around 2.30 in the afternoon we witnessed a poor young lass shooting up on the second floor glass sided stairwell. There was no attendant to be found so we paid the fee and left. I'm ashamed that this situation exists in the city I grew up in and love. I hope someone from the Council, The Hilton hotel or the Quays will step up to the mark and do the right thing for ALL the people...

Was not informed that the last entry into the leisure centre was 3pm and was disappointed that we could not use when we arrived. Having a table system for the around the world buffet was frustrating, as people on table 10 were joining table 4 to get there food. Staffing levels throughout the evening (bar, table clearing) and breakfast were not sufficient to deal with customer demand. We felt sorry for the lady at breakfast as she was the only waitress trying to do everything for everyone, sorry didn't ask her name but she had glasses and had an oriental look, replenishing food, plates, condiments, clearing tables and dealing with customers specific requests. Thank you to Gavin for dealing with our request on the evening. Individual tickets for the buffet with your table number on could be an idea, as people were going up for seconds even before people who were still waiting...

Underestimated and little publicised gem near the centre of Sheffield. Dating back to 1816,it remained a working port up till 1970. The previously thriving area fell into disrepair and ruin until a complete restoration in the early 90's. The main entrance near the park square roundabout lead's you along a cobbled pathway, first is the original main building which has been lovingly re-devoleped into office's, and then along to the left are arches which have been turned into a variety of shop's and eateries, complete with a bar. To the right the beginning of the canal which is home to a number of canal boats.

It was very quiet and nice to walk around this canal was built early 18s century to transport coal and spice to the city centre

It is a hidden gem in the city where there are canal and boats! You can not imagine there is a hidden port near the city center! There are many boats, some are nice and cute ones. Also you can see the beautiful sky if it is sunny and the hill far on top. It is like a painting that you can see in gallery. There are also some shops which it was closed when I arrive. I can imagine it is gonna be so nice to sit and enjoy the canal and boat in the summer!!
