Good overall room i would go back .

Middle of the town so good for food etc..... parking was good i did struggle to find it, even when i got the map , probably just me ….. Room was clean and tidy, nice big smart TV , good coffee machine bed was comfy, shower / bath could do with a slip mat but all in all it was fine. I stayed in room 4 which was up a few very steep stairways i would not recommend if you struggle physically to be honest.

A beautiful, peaceful stay! So much space and goregous natural light streaming through sash windiws in the morning. The rooms are in an historic, listed building, so there are quirks and without the radiators it can be chilly, so if staying in the winter months consider bringing a cosy dressing gown to wrap up in, especially after a relaxing soak in the huge bathtub. The coffee machine and chocolates were a wonderful treat. As was waking up right in the city centre.

The room was great, comfortable and clean but unfortunately the sash windows are loose so were rattling loudly throughout the night so I couldn't get any sleep. I contacted the hotel to see if anything could be done to compensate but was told that because it's a grade 2 building it's a characteristic of the accommodation. What I would suggest is putting some wooden wedges around the window frame to eliminate the movement. If it wasn't from the noisy windows preventing me from getting to sleep I'd give this hotel 5 stars.

A different stay in Leicester

Unusual setup and the check-in procedure was slightly confusing when I received it, but the room was spacious and comfortable and so was the bathroom. Location was excellent.

Can't rate the staff because there weren't any. TV didn't work. Too late to complain (I guess flat batteries in the remote) Sink plug didn't work (a common hotel problem) My biggest bug bear was that I received 14 e-mails either from the hotel or Expedia - just for a one night stay - ridiculous!

One Night Stay

Beautiful venue, spacious room, amazing location, great communications and instructions beforehand. Really comfortable bed. However it was freezing cold!! Even with the radiators on full blast they stayed luke warm and the room and bathroom never warmed up. Water pressure in bath/shower also quite low. I would stay again if these areas were looked at.
