The property was clean. The rooms don’t have a fridge or coffee makers like in North America so keep that in mind. The reception desk was very helpful and nice.

Excellent room and can’t fault the welcome and service of the staff. Stayed here with my daughter for the weekend and felt safe and looked after. Food was excellent and shops easy walking distance. There was a music event happening nearby when we arrived which worried me but it couldn’t be heard from the room even with the window open.

Excellent hotel with lovely staff, great breakfast and very clean, comfortable rooms and facilities. Close to town centre to walk with children. The only down side was the situation in the middle of a busy road but really didn’t matter. Would stay again when coming to Leicester.

Had a lovely stay in a family friendly room (2 double beds for 2 adults one child) Check in was quick, staff were very friendly and professional. Room was clean. Only downside is I would have welcomed a mini fridge to put our own water etc in as it was a warm weekend.

We just stayed for one night - the staff were very friendly and helpful. Great room. Massive highlight was breakfast. We had the warmest friendliest welcome from Robert, he was so helpful, friendly and kind. Freshly made pancakes, poached eggs and also lovely hot buffet food. Highly recommend. Thank you
