Top University of Leicester Hotel Reviews

The Grand Hotel Leicester by The Unlimited Collection

8/10 Good

"Lovely hotel with old world charm, friendly staff and fairly good breakfast. Modestly sized bed and bedroom, large bathroom with bath and shower. Only secondary double glazing, and as my room faced the main road, it was very noisy until midnight. There are rooms at the back of the hotel that should be quieter. No desk, so working was a bit tricky. Overall, a very pleasant two day stay."

Park View

10/10 Excellent

"Great price just what I need for one night stay as I was going to the darts"

Ramada Encore by Wyndham Leicester City Centre

8/10 Good

"Good location, rooms decent. Conveniently located."

voco Leicester by IHG

10/10 Excellent

Holiday Inn Leicester by IHG

8/10 Good

"A great stay in the centre of Leicester The reception and dining staff were very helpful and friendly.All areas of the hotel are spotless and great value for money Will definitely be back"

ibis Leicester City

10/10 Excellent

"My stay here at this hotel has been a pleasant experience."

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."
