Hotels near Leicester, Leicester

As a hotel owner I’m always very sceptical when staying elsewhere. The Ramada Encore was spotless, something which is usually a major concern for me. The bed was comfortable, the shower was lovely with great water pressure. Check-in and check-out were seamless, staff were very friendly and accommodating regarding my late check-in and request for a later check-out. Breakfast options were great for the average person, but as someone that eats low carb I was limited, but knew this when I paid for it, plenty of food available at the buffet though. There was a little noise from drunk people passing by on the street but it was a Friday night so not the hotel’s fault and didn’t last very long. No noise whatsoever indoors. Overall, very pleased with my stay, great value for money.

We stayed at this hotel as a couple as we were attending an event at the rugby stadium, which is literally 30 seconds walk away. The room was absolutely spotless! Well kept and had everything we needed and more, hairdryer that actually dried my hair, iron/board, fridge, safe, kettle, even a posh coffee machine. The bathroom, well wow, it is a little small but to be honest, not too small. The shower, wow, there was a hole in the shower door so you could start the shower from the outside! It was also a handy hole for reaching my toiletries. The TV was great and room service was reasonably prices and pretty speedy! All of the staff we had contact with were friendly and looked happy to be there!! I've stayed in hotels from Fiji to Blackpool, from Glasgow to New Zealand and this rates in the top! We will definitely be staying here again.

Enjoyed a great stay check in was painless as the staff were professional & polite. The studio room was very clean & had microwave,cooker hob & fridge which would be handy if you were staying for a while. Wi-Fi was good.

This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. I was really reluctant to write this review as everyone I spoke to at the hotel during my stay was helpful and friendly, the staff there were top. However after complaining about the stay when checking out, again the woman I spoke to was lovely but said a manager would need to get in touch. It’s been four days and the owner/manager hasn’t. I gave them the opportunity to get in touch and see what went wrong, now I just need to be honest about the stay. This was the worst night sleep I ever had, in a hotel or otherwise. We paid for a suite, so one of the nicest rooms in the hotel. However from the moment we got in the room it was unbearable. The heat in the room was like being in a sauna - that isn’t an exaggeration. We went around the room to see if there were any radiators on that we didn’t spot! Unbearable. There is no air conditioning in the room just a tiny fan left on the side for us to use. That provided no relief. Maybe your thinking open a window, they are prevented from opening more than a few inches. So we were just stuck in this unbearable room with no alternative. In order to get the 2 hours sleep I did get that night. I had to get up and stand in a cold shower multiple times. This was a stop on a road trip my wife and I were having for our honeymoon. I rated all the other hotels 5 star they were amazing. This put a real downer in our otherwise perfect trip. I was embarrassed picking this hotel to stay in as one of our stops. Avoid it like the plague.

There is a 24-hour bar in the hotel, and it feels okay to have a dinner. The room is not big, and the area in this city is still very dissatisfied. The facilities are old and the bathroom door cannot be completely closed. Stayed for two nights, the waiter cleaning the room at 11 o'clock the next day asked if I would clean it, because I was still packing things and let her come later, she was put on a stinky face, hey, very speechless.

So I booked this for an overnight stay for our first anniversary. Plumped for the executive room with a king-size bed, stocked bar, and breakfast. The room was lovely and clean. But I noticed that the fridge only had water, but speaking to Clare in front of house promptly solved the situation with housekeeping coming up to stock the fridge. Also a little later to give us a shower curtain ( I hadn't even noticed it wasn't there). Nice kettle and tea and coffee, didn't use it but it was there. Did notice a hairdryer, use the robes and slippers and the iron. Breakfast was great with four non dairy milk options my only complaint as someone with a dairy allergy and not an eater of pork. Was that after paying for breakfast my choice was very limited to just cereal, some mushrooms, tomatoes and baked beans. Would suggest some vegan sausages, turkey bacon, tofu scramble on the menu as well as dairy free spread and cheese. But it was a lovely stay, amazingly friendly staff

It is a pretty standard Novotel. It was clean and all the staff were very friendly and helpful. The location is good and fairly central. It was just over £200 for a Saturday night which was dear for a hotel of this standard but I do appreciate the economics of supply and demand. Overall would use again if in Leicester

Dear Marriott Hotel Leicester, Thursday evening (18/08/22), I went to the Marriott Bar for a drink with a friend, between the hours of 8:15pm to 11:15pm, the ambiance was lovely as per usual, customer service was spot on and overall I was having an pleasant evening. Nonetheless with a consumption of a few drinks, my bladder was due to burst and I made a trip to the ladies. Whilst I was washing my hands, I heard someone in the cubicle flush the toilet, she came out and walked straight out the door! Yes that’s correct she didn’t WASH HER HANDS. This wasn’t just any women, it was an employee of the Marriott Hotel! I saw her walk to the Market Street bar/restaurant which is part of the hotel and she had continued to work! Marriott, do you not teach your staff members the very basics of hygiene and the importance around this??? It was rather disgusting and concerning to witness, especially to have seen this female work in the bar/restaurant area? Description of female: long black tied up hair, 5’4 approx and of a large build to put it in a polite manner! I’m just glad I didn’t vomit with such disgust!!! Yours truly :-)

I was spending the weekend with my friend and travelling by motorbike. I was worried about leaving my bike on the street so I rang in the morning and they assured me there would be somewhere secure for me to leave my bike. Sure enough, upon arrival the guy was waiting for me with the gate open to park my bike behind the hostel. He took me through to the reception and although I did not eat or drink, the hostel was very cosy, quiet and everything in the city was easily accessible on foot. For the price the room was spacious, well equipped with a tv and sink, clean and comfy. When I checked out they let me leave my luggage, leathers and bike gear for hours while I had lunch. Outstanding service, excellent value for money. Would recommend and would stay again.

Functional and spotlessly clean, this exceeded my expectations. I just wanted a bed for the night while visiting friends, but this would be an ideal place to stay if you were on a work visit. I didn’t use the kitchen or laundry room, but I can see these would be very useful if you were staying for an extended period. The iron and ironing board in the room was a useful addition. It was hard to cool the room with only one opening window, but it was one of the hottest days of the year when I visited. There are only three parking spaces, but plenty of parking available on nearby roads. Having the co-op just down the stairs would be very useful if you were staying for any length of time. Very impressed and I would definitely stay here again.
