ibis budget Leicester

Rooms are small and basic but overall does the job for somewhere to stay.

We arrived later in the afternoon and were very tired from a long car drive. Checking in was easy enough and the young man at the reception was friendly.
The bunk bed was not made, which is not ideal if you are tired and and just want to crash. The bunk bed itself has not been properly cleaned in a while, as there were tissues stuffed in the corners, the mattress protector had stains and the frame hasn't seen a cloth in a while and the ladder could do with a few screws tightening.
The room had a weird smell and we had to open the window first thing we stepped in, but that didn't last long, as somebody was smoking pot nearby
We have also been charged for parking, even though it says on their website it is free, which I only noticed once we left.
I am aware it is a budget hotel and I have stayed in many different ones in the past, but I was really not impressed with this one.
We only stayed for a night, that's why I gave the hotel 3 stars and it was okay for what we needed it.

very good and very helpful

I had an excellent experience here. I checked in during the early hours, and the porter was already waiting—very friendly and even offered me tea or coffee on arrival. The room was spotless, compact, and perfect for a one-night stay, with a lovely bath towel provided. There was no hairdryer in the room, but otherwise everything was just right.

Parking usually comes with a charge, but it wasn’t working during my visit, which was a bonus. Despite being located at a service area, it was surprisingly quiet. Breakfast was buffet-style with plenty of choice, and the Full English was piping hot.

I would definitely stay again.

After been letdown by holiday inn last minute these guys came to the rescue the lads were so happy to help and they managed to save my wedding day thank you so much I will return when in Leicster

My one night stay went very smoothly.The staff were affable and attentive over help with the wifi and security. I missed not having a drink making facility in the room or a waste bin but appreciated the generous drinks freely available in the dining area. It proved a good, all round choice.

Excellent service from start to finish. Room was really clean and had all the amenities needed. Fantastic stat, would stay again!

Really not happy with my stay. I was given an accessible room and the bathroom floor was dirty. I thought the floor was stained but realised after getting out of the shower it was actually dirt as I stood on a towel afterwards with wet feet and the towel was dirty. Not acceptable. There was also a lot of dust. In the morning when I had a shower the power went off so I was stood in pitch black in the bathroom (good job I am able-bodied as it wasn’t easy getting out of the bathroom). I had shampoo in my hair and had to walk across the room to open blinds so I had some light and leave the bathroom door open. I was in the ground floor so not ideal walking around naked to get some light. I ended up being late for a work meeting because my shower took twice as long as the shower turned into a drizzle. The hotel is convenient for work but I would rather travel further and pay more because it was an unpleasant experience. Always thought Ibis were ok but not this one

The property was good ideal for couples

Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast average. Not liking the paper cups for tea.

Great chips in restaurant menu!!

The room was nice and clean, bed was comfortable. Staff were welcoming and polite. Disappointed with breakfast 😕 they didn't have vegetarian breakfast. We wanted vegetarian sausages they didn't have.

No kettle or bottled water provided in bedroom although tea and coffee were provided for free in the reception area - it was still rather inconvenient. Shower floor cracked and I had to ask for a room change, rather than offered for a swap. I had been asked to ‘be mindful of not making the crack worse’ by the front house staff when pointed the crack out! A good job that I had spotted the crack BEFORE I took my shower, or else I would have been made liable for the pre-existing damage.

Good value for money.
Staff were very friendly, polite and helpful

Hotel was clean and rooms compact. Staff friendly and helpful.

Cool room

Fresh , clean , good value for a quick overnight stop

The service from all the people working in the hotel was great we can’t fault them especially as we were at a festival was nice to help welcoming people at the desk. The hotel overall was fine but the room had a few issues I was just too tired to report. The shower was leaking from the head and door meaning it went everywhere each time you used it. The ac was the functioning for cooling the room but made a constant clicking noise and loud banging noise every few minutes making it very hard to sleep. This wasn’t a normal noise as the unit was working fine just very noisy. Managed to get some sleep on night three and the bed was comfortable.

Great

Clean hotel and staff friendly.
£10 charge for parking wasnt highlighted on website
All rooms had major noise issues with air conditioning (even when off). Moved rooms but sound of running water all night
