Fabulous stay. Dad and 4 daughters.
Pros:

Welcoming and friendly staff. Lovely bar (didnt rip you off) and outside area. Comfortable and super clean room/bed/bathroom. 5-10 mins walk to De Monteford Hall and loads of eateries/restaurants/takeaways nearby in walking distance. We had the £10 each buffet breakfast and it was excellent value for money. Great choice and quality ingrediants. Thank you for a great stay 😁

Cons:

I didnt not like, just would have liked a fridge in the room.

Ideal for sightseeing in Leicester

Everyone at the hotel was very helpful. Good breakfast. Free parking. We particularly liked the location on the New walk so that you could walk along a pretty pedestrian walk into town or turning the other way again walk to Victoria park (conveniently located for parkrun!)

Cons:

Nothing

Would definitely stay again and would recommend
Pros:

Location is great for Demontfort Hall Breakfast was very tasty and plentiful. Staff were super friendly and helpful

Cons:

Our room was very basic and tired. We found a couple of empty wrappers that hadn't quite made it into the bin and got missed. We could hear someone blowing their nose in the next room as the walls were quite thin

Pros:

Gute Lage, nettes Personal.

Cons:

Leider hat es sehr schlecht gerochen in unserm Zimmer und es hatte auch Schimmelbefall im Badezimmer. Die Fenster konnten leider nicht geöffnet werden. Wir haben aber für die zweite Nacht ein neues Zimmer bekommen, was sehr nett war.
