Failing that, there is a multistorey car park next to the hotel for which there is a discounted fee of £15 for hotel residents. It is a shame that the pool has been closed for a number of years, but I understand the reason as it primarily due to the running costs. All the staff I met were great. Slight problem was that my credit card hadn't been requested to add extgras, this was rectified later. I paid for a stocked minibar, it appeared to be chargeable to the room any items removed. It ws only just before checkout that I found that this wasn't the case. The signage in the fridge was confusing. Nevertheless a good size room and a comfortable bed. Although, my wife complained about the hard pillows.....I didn't find them to be a problem. I'm sure the hotel would have rectified them for my wife, if she had asked. I was recognised as a Diamond Elite member and breakfast was therefore included free of charge. The breakfast offerings were great, unfortunately, I didn't see the porridge in time and had cereal. Not the end of the world. Would I stay there again? Yes.

I would love to be able to stay here again should I ever be back in Leicester!

I had to stay in Leicester recently on a business trip. I ended up staying here as they had a…read morepromotion on. The hotel is only two years old so everything was new, modern and in pristine condition. My room was really nice and a pleasure to just hang out in. The bathroom was like a semi wet room. The shower was really powerful, bit like a warm massage. Crap view but you're in the middle of Leicester, so what would you expect? Talking of being in the middle of Leicester, the location of this place couldn't have been better. It's situated right in the centre of the Leicester's main shopping/dining area. As you walk out of the hotel you're walking distance from coffee shops, restaurants, bars, pubs and many shops. However I had to remove a star for two reasons. One, this Ramada Encore doesn't have it's own car park. Instead you have to use an NCP car park that's a few minutes away. Not a major problem but not ideal. The second reason I withheld a star was because I found a lot of the staff to be a bit arrogant and/or unhelpful. The service at reception just felt really unprofessional. Maybe I was just unlucky or caught them at a busy period. Who knows? Apart from those two minor complaints this is a lovely hotel. Ideal for short stays in Leicester. I'd definitely stay at the Ramada Encore again.

However, they must have sorted that out because our friends said it was OK the other week. They have a massive patio area where you can eat and watch the kids play on their decent sized play area. On the side of the pub is the working watermill that is propelled by the River Soar. They have a nice fishing lake behind the pub so it's a very relaxing place to chill out. The Mill has a couple of function rooms and an attached hotel also. The decor inside is nice and they have a restaurant section though I've never been in. Despite having a poor time last we haven't given up on the place - if they can or have sorted these little problems out it would be a 5 star place to go as a family.

This is quite a large Premier Inn, with lots of parking. It's situated beside a busy road junction, but the rooms were quiet enough and up to the usual high standard of Premier Inn. We ate in the restaurant as there is nothing else of note in the immediate area, and were very happy with the food. They do a dinner/breakfast deal for £23.99, and as the breakfast is all-you-can-eat, this was a pretty good deal. Free Wi-fi in the bar and reception areas too.

The rooms are typical Travelodge, basic, cosy and comfy. I have always liked them. I don't need a flashy hotel room. 2 towels is not really enough for a family room mind you, although I expect you can ask for more if you can be bothered. Also 1 bar of soap between the bath and the sink means you probably should be bringing your own shampoo/shower gel. Foodwise there are a lot of quite cheap options that you can get here and they do have a bar (although it is not especially good). I would avoid the overpriced crisps/just add water meals in the vending machine if I were you. During my visit they seemed to have a lot of technical problems. On arrival the booking system was not working so we had to check in manually. This was not in any way inconvenientand nor was one lift being out of order, because the other one was working just fine. In the end though these issues mean that I can't give more than 3 because the 3rd technical issue I encountered was a royal pain. Twice, during a 36 hour stay, my room card somehow became unsynchronized or unset somehow from the room. This meant I could get in through the first door and get up to my room, before not being able to get in and having to go back to reception. That was really irritating. I'd stay here again though..the location is superb for going out or shopping and you generally know what you're getting with Travelodges

You take the included breakfast at the Toby carvery next door and they offer a "help yourself to veg" carvery (pork, turkey, beef) for £5.25 before 7.00pm (£7.50 after 7.00pm). The carvery was best value and I enjoyed it. Bank's cask ale at £1.99pp plus lagers from £2.45 to £2.85pp. I stayed for two nights and will definitely use an Innkeepers lodge again.
