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.

Staying here tonight on a road trip around the country. The vomit stain on the otherwise heavily-stained carpet next to the bed is probably the worst feature at the moment. They provided no facial tissue, and 1/3 roll of toilet paper for the whole family (no backup either). There is one outlet for the family to share to charge devices and operate a CPAP machine. The front of the couch is falling off. There is no air conditioning, no laundry, and no change that can be made to use the launderette several miles down the road. The place is very dated, as judged by my one room. That said, the service at the front desk was excellent and I'm looking forward to the breakfast in the morning that gets good reviews here. Next morning edits: the bed and the pillows are garbage, as evidenced by my exhaustion and significant back pain this morning. Couldn't sleep well at all. The water pressure in the shower was barely enough to reach the shower head and dribble out. The breakfast was mostly a miss. The sausages were undercooked mush and the hash browns were over cooked. The eggs and porridge and OJ were good. Still good service at breakfast.

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 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.

This is a slightly worn looking Travelodge in a fantastic location in a quiet road right near the…read morecentre of Leicester. Try not to wander into the casino instead. 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

Many moons later, I was back for a 30th birthday party so I thought I would book us in at the Belmont Hotel. I booked via Booking.com and it was £95. I think it would usually be cheaper but they were pretty booked up with a wedding and birthdays and so on. The hotel is on New Walk, not far from the train station, in one of the prettiest areas in town. I don't think people realise how pretty a lot of Leicester is. The reception is near the back of the building, if you go in via the car park. Staff were friendly and efficient. Our room was small but lovey. It's an old building but the rooms are modern. As others have mentioned the beds are super comfortable. Springy but firm, it was like sleeping on a sponge cake. Plus there was a firm pillow! That's all I need. Good tea selection on the hospitality tray, good toiletries, a hot shower. A comfortable night's sleep. Why 4 not 5? £95 didn't include breakfast and the walls are super thin so we could hear our neighbours. Nevertheless, I would book again and make sure I booked well in advance.

We stayed in a suite and it was huge. Like, so big that I told my husband if we ever lived in Europe we'd dream of having a flat that big -- because it was just a lot of real estate, especially compared to the average European hotel room. I think it may have made him cry a little inside because our home in California is a four-bedroom with us as the only inhabitants. But I digress. The furniture was also comfortable, power sources were ample, wifi free (after sign up), and the shower was great. If I had known then that my hotel in Paris had a shower head that would contort itself toward the shower wall, making my shower extra unpleasant, well, I'd have stayed in the shower at the Belmont longer. We had breakfast in the dining room and it was quite nice. I stuck with the cold stuff, but my husband added eggs which he said were fine. (In his words, "Yeah, they were good. A little runny, but whatever." This is why he doesn't Yelp.) The location was great - very close to the train, and right on the New Walk, which was convenient to me, because I was spending my days at a conference at De Montfort. The whole place was clean and lovely. I would absolutely return.
