Car park a bit of a distance from hotel and a hassle if you have young children. No flexibility for check out times. Overall the standards were good. Polite staff.

The hotel was new (4 years) and was warm and friendly. Parking was available off-site a three minute walk away and at £10 for 24 hours was very reasonable. The reception staff without exception were polite and helpful. Breakfast was well organised and well laid out with lots of variety to suit all tastes. Our room was spacious with an excellent bathroom and shower. The walk into the centre was no more than 10 minutes and the hotel was on the right side for the main visitor attractions (Richard III museum, Guildhall, Cathedral, Newarke Museum and Castle).

Really nice hotel in the centre of Leicester so very convenient for shops, bars, restaurants. Staff very friendly and helpful and the rooms superb. Parking way a bit tricky to find at nighttime due to dead ends and closed off roads and it’s easy to miss your turn so follow Sat nav very carefully otherwise you have a grand tour of Leicester centre.

Sofa bed was useless...2 light sponge mattresses that kept drifting apart while attempting to sleep on them (so your v butt kept going onto the metal frame underneath)! Expensive for what it is and the facilities - can find similar hotels for a lot less around the area. No swimming pool, no extra facilities. Expensive restaurant.
