Paid 75 pound for a Saturday night stay, and was interested to see what we got with all the mixed reviews.
We had the economy room with queen bed, it was at the front 2nd floor just above the taxi rank. The space was tight but had smaller, the bed and shower were both wonderful, only thing missing was tea and coffee in the room. The roof top bar was quite something too.
I decided to have a deeper look at things because of the mixed reviews, yes I found some dust, a little mould and we had a brown burn on a towel, but we only found it because I went looking for it. I would never have noticed it otherwise, I have stayed in much worse hotels.
Seriously if you want 5* book a Radisson or something, and get real, this hotel was great for the price.
The best thing about this hotel is it's position bang in the centre and the 6 pound 24 hour parking in the high cross car park shouldn't be overlooked either, bargain!
It has a wetherspoons seconds away for breakfast too. We expected to have noise due to the taxi rank and it being Saturday night, but we honestly didn't hear anything and the wife is a very light sleeper.
If you want to be right in the centre of town this hotels location for the bars is as good as any, it's probably more 3 star than 5, and if you take 6 pound parking in central Leicester in to account, this price probably can't be beat.
If you want 5 star sorry your going to have to pay more somewhere else for that.
