Pros: Close to the railway station, rooms seem updated, breakfast selection was lovely (although the same for all days we stayed there), and the cleaning staff did a good job of swiftly cleaning the rooms each day. Cons: When we checked in our pillows smelled like body odor, we didn't really think of speaking to staff until the next day but when they were replaced, we *knew* the pillows were old when we arrived. We asked for a cot via the chat weeks before arrival but still, when we got there, there was no cot. When the cot came, the gentlemen offered to set it up but told us that they don't provide mattresses... which it's really just a playpen. He gave us towels and some bedding, which I'm pretty sure if a child is small enough, would be even more dangerous than a mattress. The washroom is 3-in-1, with no visible separation between the shower, toilet, and sink. Definitely would have to stay here as a family, otherwise, sharing a room with a friend or colleague would be rather awkward. There is no shower curtain nor glass, making the water go all over the floor. Not sure why it is designed this way. STILL, we give this property 4 out of 5 stars as it was generally quite lovely.

We really liked the hotel, the room was very clean and stylish. The car park was secure, however, the surrounding area left us feeling uneasy due to the close proximity to the prison. One recently released prisoner tried to latch onto our family and join us for dinner whilst we were walking to a restaurant which left us all feeling uneasy especially the children. Whilst I am minded to think that it could have happened anywhere, and it was off hotel property the proximity of the hotel to the prison definitely contributed to this experience.

Great stay extra bar staff needed

Excellent room, really friendly staff, one issue for management is that 2 bar staff really struggled to cope with serving and dishwashing so the dishwashing took 2nd place and the staff used plastic containers. No complaints from the staff but one to check for on a game night.

Nice.. would stay again!

Was nice, clean and friendly staff. Wish they would’ve told us we had to use one of our keys to get electric on in the room. Took us a good 5 to 10 minutes to figure it out! If they are from the UK yes they probably know but since other countries don’t have this. It was nice and eco though!

The hotel was clean. My room was spacious. The bed was comfortable and came with a large walk in shower. I loved the retro phone and radio. The hotel was about a 20 minute walk from the centre of town but was just across the road from a number of bus stops. Bus rides into the centre of town were very short. I ate at the hotel on one evening. The food was good and it arrived very quickly. Perfect for any attending a rugby match as its just across the road. The hotel is ideal for everyone

The hotel is really stylish. We loved the decor and it was really well maintained. Plenty of room in the bar and restaurant with enough food and drink choices for our tastes. The 'cinema' (large screen projector) was a really nice touch, especially with the graduated seating, just like e real cinema. We were able to watch the ladies Rugby World Cup. The reception area was really light and spacious. Very welcoming with lovely helpful reception staff. The rooms...we'll.our room was again very stylish with the bed situated in the centre of the room. This might seem odd, but not at all. Other hotels should follow suit. Hopefully I should be able to upload some pictures? We had a perfectly usable fridge. Good sized TV and well placed. Really comfy queen size bed and snuggly pillows. Air con worked really well. The shower room was a again really well designed with a large shower area big enough for two. The standard shower head was easily good enough but the monsoon shower head was spectacular! I'm not a fan of showers...but I would be with one of those. Hot water was instant and always hot. Soft close toilet seat. The room was built for comfort and relaxation. Plenty of lamps and lights and the black out curtains worked to well. We didn't know if it was daytime or night time. Brilliant! Room service was excellent. Bar service was excellent. Restaurant services was excellent. We won't be looking at any other hotels when we revisit Leicester. Certainly the best we've stayed in.
