As previous reviewers have mentioned, the location is a strange one in the middle of a roundabout and the building is an ugly concrete tower. If arriving on foot, the way to get to the entrance is through the multistorey car park opposite. The guy at reception on check-in could not have been any more helpful - very friendly &... more

Easy to find, yes it is sort of on a roundabout, but that really isnt an issue. reception was quick and very cheerful,. they were busy but simply called for other staff to help. We found the room wasn't a family one, a quick call to reception and someone came to give us the key to another room, no fuss,... more

This hotel has a very poor location - right in the middle of a noisy roundabout which means you cannot have the window open at night. My room looked as if it had last been decorated about 20 years ago. The smell from the old shower curtain pervaded the room, the mini-bar was empty and I was horrified to find... more

This is a very average Holiday Inn. The location, on a roundabout and surounded by concrete walkways, is not the most picturesque. The room was large, but not really very up to date. Staff were helpful though - one even lent me her own umbrella. Breakfast was really pretty bad. Ancient pastries, watery eggs, canned fruit, dire coffee. more

My husband and i were in leicester for the cla game fair and had booked 3 star accommodation online. When we got there it was appalling and there was no way either of us would stay there. The people we had booked through got us a room in the holiday inn - also 3 star. It was lovely. The staff... more

I travelled to Leicester with my Mum on the train on the 3rd of July to attend the De Montfort University Open Day the next morning. We decided to save the fare for a taxi and walk from the railway station to the hotel. We chose to stay at the Holiday Inn because it was central, near to the university... more

Stayed here for two nights for the annual Big Session festival at De Montford Hall when the usual hotel we use was unavailable (even though we booked 8 months ahead). I thought this was going to be too far from the Hall and from town, and it was a bit of a trudge if you were carrying a day's food,... more

Went for just one night, but have in fact booked again for next month. The room was on the seventh floor, and had an enormous bed, settee, and chairs. The bed was very comfy, we even had a choice of pillows! The restaurant was excellent, the food was excellent too. Parking was in public carpark right next to the hotel... more

The Leicester Holiday Inn is located close to the High Street and almost next to the new High Cross shopping centre. Not a special setting but not a problem in a city centre. The car park is an NCP car park literally ten yards from the front door. Should have cost £12 for 24 hours but staying at the hotel... more
