Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff was excellent and co-operative. Only issue was their things getting broken and not getting fixed on time. For example their AC is still broken, coffee machines broken.
Kids playing football in the corridor of level 5 - swearing in front of my kids.
Room stunk of cigarettes.
Large crack in the wall by the window.
Breakfast was OK, not so good.
Overall dissatisfied with the stay.

Breakfast both mornings was disappointing. Coffee machine didn’t work, little fruit compote available, difficult trying to get staff to help as they were busy dealing with machine malfunctions. The bar wasn’t particularly well stocked and the lack of slimline options in drinks was not helpful for diabetic friends .
No air conditioning in the hotel at all.

Main reception and general state of hotel good, room tried, mattress lumpy, Paint chipped off walls, carpet stained, shower leaking from bottom, breakfast chewy though did like this hotel
Close to city center. For the whole stay the AC was not working and it was sweltering and felt like we were staying in sauna. It was not staff's problem, rather management issue. We were not informed of AC problem, otherwise i would have picked another hotel as i paid quite a bit of money for the hotel.
We were in Leicester for a family wedding in the city center, so we booked in with you the day before so we could relax, as we travelled up from Wiltshire.The Hotel was comfortable, parking was great, Bed was comfy and Breakfast was tasty. Also great being next to King Power stadium.
