Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Have always loved this hotel, lovely decor and comfortable beds but could just do with a bit of maintenance of general wear & tear. Still a great hotel though.
The staff were really friendly and efficient. We had a small dog and he was welcomed. The room was modern with all aminities. Food great with a lovely bar and comfy chilling area.
Had a very short stay here but room was well equipped and was clean and comfortable. Only issue was parking as this required pre-booking which was not made clear when we reserved the room. As the hotel carpark was full, we were advised by staff to park in another carpark which was a 10 min walk away. Had to do this in the middle of the night so not great as we were unfamiliar with the location.
Was a really easy check in and I have to say that the rooms are perhaps one of the best we have stayed in of which there are many. Lovely staff on reception and behind the bar, rooms were immaculate, can’t wait to stay again.
Wasn't aware of limited parking but staff were extremely helpful with alternative.
The chap that checked us in was brilliant and so chatty and helpful, shame I didn't get name.
Start to finish, the staff were incredibly helpful in explaining what their amenities and services they have, as well as assist me in getting my suite key replaced after I forgot it in my room. They also offer breakfast that is reasonably flexible and the ability to order food from your room at most hours. Room service was done on the daily and you can request refills from the complimentary snack parlour via the phone or in person. Wifi was also provided for free.
It was so lovely the minute we stepped in the hotel the reception Zionist was to warm and welcoming. We had a standard room and it was so nice .. modern and spotless..
my friend at breakfast carnt have certain coffees and milk a.. she carnt have coffe from machines . The waiter at breakfast went and her a fresh one and brought to table.. which we have never got from other hotels .. overall we were extremely happy and will be staying again x
This is a fabulous hotel in all aspects but I must mention the excellent breakfast in particular. So much choice and delicious. Modern environment with lots of space and high quality furnishings. Individual rooms are original and fully equipped. Our new favourite in Leicester. Good price too. Love it. Staff are really nice and friendly.
