Top Oakham Hotel Reviews

voco Leicester by IHG

8/10 Good

"We stayed for two nights, and this wasn’t our first time staying at voco Leicester. Overall, the room was clean, although it could have been a little cleaner in some areas. The room layout was quite unusual, but in a good way — I’d say it was unique rather than strange. The bathroom was spacious and had both a rainfall shower and a handheld shower hose, which was a nice touch. The beds were really comfortable and made for a great night’s sleep. The room had everything you’d need for a comfortable stay, including a coffee machine, kettle, ironing board and mini fridge. The staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming throughout our stay. The only reason I’ve given the hotel 4 stars rather than 5 is the parking, which costs £20 per night. I feel this is quite expensive, especially for guests staying at the hotel. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would happily return to voco Leicester."
