Hotels With WiFi in Leicestershire, United Kingdom

Although the price is cheap, the experience of settling in is not good.

There was no air con so the room was unbearably hot. A fan was provided which was noisy and had minimal effect. The corridor outside my room smelt like a nursing home. I didnt sample any food so can’t comment on that. Shower was Ok. I won’t be returning.

The accommodation was clean, the usual kettle, coffee and Tea was provided. Water was provided via a carefree ( flip open bottle with a stopper ). Not sure the tap water in the room was safe but the water supplied was good which was handy as you could not fill the kettle from the wash basin , which was small in size. My room had a walk in shower but it was in the shape of a quarter circle with the doors closing in the centre. If you were a large person getting in or out it was a squeeze. Towels, soap and shampoo provided but the satchels were difficult to open. Scissors or a sharp knife would be needed or very strong fingers lol. The bathroom was clean however there was an aroma maybe from the stench pipe but all in all it met my needs. Access was from a side door which you could unlock with the keys given to you when you book in at the bar. Be mindful all rooms are one floor up, the stairs are steep with one handrail so if you are disabled don't book here. Zowie was the lady in charge, polite, helpful and freindly but sadly the opening times of the bar are limited. Open from 12 midday to 10pm Mon to Friday and longer on Saturday and Sunday. They obviously do a good Sunday lunch as I arrived Sunday and the place was heaving with customers. Never got a chance to sample their cuisine , breakfast was in a cafe about 2 minutes walk away. I was out early and back late hence I did not eat there. Parking is free, but if you arrive Sunday the carpark will be full up with hungry customers. There was a housekeeper who would tidy the room, change the towels but the bedlinen is not changed daily. Overall the stay there was good however as there is no breakfast included it borders on being a little overpriced.

From the images and location this hotel looks stunning. Upon arriving it was quickly noticed that the hotel is in much need of an upgrade in every aspect. The decor is very dated, no locks on the toilets in reception, cloudy water from the taps, stale beer from the bar taps, cold shower ( staff tried to reset the boiler), dirty towels in the toilets Body wash and hand soap were the same, looked just like washing up liquid :/ Free continental breakfast was included which was ok, the cheese was sweaty and once the very small amount of pastries had gone, that was it, no refilling. Coffee ran out as did the cups. Avoid the sausages if you go for a cooked breakfast , I can only describe them as mushy The one thing that was pleasant other than the location, were the staff. They are extremely friendly, I hope the owner or someone can invest in this place. Has such potential to be beautiful but really was like something out of a comedy sketch

From walking into the hotel to checking in I was greeted by pleasant and nice staff, helpful and cheerful. Stayed in the bar for a quick drink before going to the room and the bar and restaurant was clean, warm and inviting. Was nice to see it being used by others staying at the hotel for evening meal.  Lift wasn’t working but the stairs to my floor wasn’t an issue, I travelled light. The room I booked was a double room, which was clean and comfortable for the one night I stayed. Perfect location by the station and close enough to the shops and bars in the city itself.

After much deliberation, I chose the voco® Leicester. Having always wanted to try the voco® in Nanjing but never getting the chance to visit, I jumped at the opportunity when I saw the voco® in Leicester at such a great price. The hotel is right next to the University of Leicester, and a 10-minute walk south leads to a huge Morrison's supermarket. I was assigned a corner room with a nice view. The layout was a bit unique, but it didn't detract from the overall experience. The bathroom amenities were much better than those at Holiday Inn Express; I really loved the scent.

Seemed like a long walk from the train station to the hotel passing thru town and going onto an area which looked industrial and a little run down and filled with suburban malls and empty carparks. Google maps said 38 mins. I walked but it will be a short cab ride (prob ＜ 7 Pounds by Uber). The hotel is by the main road facing a walled park. First impressions were i don’t want to be walking home after dark (very few ppl around) and there didn’t seem to be much around it (except for the Indian restaurant affiliated to the hotel which was closed when I came). The entrance is small and not always manned. I tried contacting them to say I would come in early to drop my bags but didn’t get a proper answer. Fortunately, when I rang the bell, someone opened the door and reluctantly took my bag in. Despite my initial negative impressions, the lady who attended to me (Hanna the owner) late that evening was a complete sweetheart. The following day in the early morning when I could see things clearer and familiarise myself with my bearings, I formed a completely different impression. The adjacent park, Abbey Park is stunning and worth spending a few hours. It is a short walk to the city center (20 mins). I don’t think Leicester is doing well economically as the signs were prevalent in many parts of town. There are beautiful parts (downtown & old quarters) and the most pretty part was the park opposite this hotel.

A gem of a hotel, tucked away on the University Campus. Lovely furnishings, excellent food at reasonable prices, beautiful bar and restaurant. We’ll be using this one again.

The hotel was clean as was our room. The only thing was when we arrived and went to our room it was very cold. On phoning reception they told us how to put the heating on, when I asked about why it wasn’t on they said because of safety concerns. As it was we went out leaving the heater on, but if we had been a few hours later then we would have had to go to bed in a very cold room.  So that wasn’t good! We didn’t use any of the facilities, so can’t really comment on this.

Such a beautiful hotel. Staff are extremely welcoming. Everyone is ready to help. The hotel itself is kept very clean. We definitely had a very comfortable good night's sleep. Breakfast was good. We loved the leisure facilities. The jacuzzi was our favourite, the water temperature wS like having a nice very hot bath! It was amazing. It was the best one I've seen ever. Also it was a very good size.. The swimming pool was far too cold for me to go in. I'm a cancer patient and I can't go in cold water. That was my only negative point.bi would have loved to go for a swim. The steam room and sauna were good. I also noticed there was a good gym but I didn't go there. There was A lovely furnished quiet room with plenty of sofas and coffee tables around to relax or work. Also a computer with Internet and a printer for our use which was really good for working guests. I booked this hotel overnight stay for my mum and myself as a little relaxing getaway and it was perfect. The car parking is not a problem at all. We will definitely be booking this in the future fir jy whole family as we really enjoyed it.
