Top University of Leicester Hotel Reviews

The Grand Hotel Leicester by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Disclaimer: Building was still undergoing renovation during my visit. Building - Even with that, this one of the nicest hotels I've stayed in. The reception/lobby/restaurant/bar area on the ground floor carries a good style and clean design. With a little exploration there are wonderful meeting and conference rooms, which were not in use when I went for a wander. Ammenities - Poked my head in the gym, there is a gym. Room carried the essentials, well supplied with coffee and tea. Very handy for me as it was a packed weekend. I would double check towels, some of mine had marks. But solo traveller, I used the 'spare' set with no difficulty. Staff were professional and helpful at every encounter. Though I didn't go to the bar or restaurant on this trip. The appearance of the space is encouraging."

The Belmont Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Always our favourite hotel when visiting Leicester. Friendly staff. Great breakfast. Good, free parking. Conveniently located for shopping, restaurants, theatres, art gallery etc. Lovely hotel!"

Holiday Inn Express Leicester - City by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Warmly welcomed by Beth on arrival, all staff friendly and helpful. Room clean and comfortable. Very good selection of food on breakfast buffet."

Holiday Inn Leicester by IHG

8/10 Good

"The hotel’s ok, very convenient for De Montfort. Breakfast was a bit of a scrum, but they were overwhelmed by the number of customers. Car parking is a bit expensive and convenient or cheap and inconvenient."

Park View

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, comfortable and close to the train station"

Croft Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Croft Hotel is in a very quiet location but a short bus journey or drive from the city centre and ideally located for the De Montfort Hall. Our room was spacious, with good natural light by day and electric lighting by night. It was a large room which was very clean and comfortable with ample storage for belongings and plenty of power sockets and windows that you can open! Our bed was extremely clean and comfortable and the shower was easy to regulate. The hotel has a bar and a TV room. The staff were as friendly and helpful as they could possibly have been, making sure that we were comfortable and giving advice as needed. It was a great place to stay and I'd not hesitate to return there should I ever return to Leicester. I do have one suggestion for the owner and that is to consider replacing the curtains in the ground floor room we stayed in. Currently, the curtains don't quite cover the windows, which didn't bother us but might be a problem for future guests."
