Staff are dishonest I left my aftershave behind and when I called they told me after two chase up calls that cleaner found nothing. Expensive present lost won’t be using this hotel ever again.

This venue is clean, modern and well appointed. The rooms are not huge but perfectly adequate. The bathroom had plenty of hot water but it me a while (a day!) to work out how to make the shower run hot - stand well back. There is plenty of parking space. I travelled by train and taxi from the station is about £7. The breakfast was plentiful and with a wide choice. One downside is there is no evening meal so it's really bed and breakfast. The nearest eating place is the Craddock Arms a five minute walk which is very good if a bit pricey. It also gets very busy. The next alternative is a series of restaurants along Queens Road but about a 20-30 minute depending how fit you are.

College Court is conveniently located in Leicester. The staff are excellent and the rooms acceptable for a 3 star hotel. There is limited socialising space at the weekend as the bar area is closed and there is no Saturday evening dining available. There is the Cradock across the road but, on the Saturday we stayed half of the pub was closed off for a private function and it was extremely busy. The only other issue I had was that when booking via Expedia, on their website, one of the highlights of the booking was that the 3 rooms I booked all had balconies. This was not the case so I would advise contacting the hotel to confirm whether or not this is the case. Overall, I would recommend College Court and would certainly stay there again.

Poor assistance with portering of luggage for obviously struggling guests on arrival. Much better at check out. No bathroom amenities and leaking shower on arrival - though quick trip to reception sorted. Limited breakfast and bar hours however very quiet time of year so probably reasonable. Friendly and helpful bar staff.

The stay was quite a bit more expensive than we usually would pay when we travel to Leicester to see family. The hotel was convenient, and it had good parking. Our room was smaller than anticipated, and the bed even smaller than that though. Didn’t get a good nights sleep due to this and the room being quite humid. Clean enough. The staff were nice enough with the little interaction I had with them. Overall the stay was fine, it just felt like we were staying in student halls which felt a bit weird. The breakfast was good. One of the best hotel breakfasts I’ve had in ages. Overall, convenient. I wouldn’t rule out coming back, but if there are other options at a similar price point - I’d probably try somewhere else.

The photos of the bed showed a 7 or 8 foot bed, but it was only a standard double bed, not even a king size bed. I felt deceived. You need to keep two towels if two persons have booked, not say to get the towels from reception. Receptionist needs more skills to make it pleasant for the guest.
