7 of us stayed at this friendly and immaculately presented boutique hotel. The hotel is convenient for the train station, the town centre, the coast, theatre and restaurants. Very comfortable bed with good quality bedding/ towells etc. Free wifi and great breakfasts in the relaxing dining room/ sitting room area. Would definately stay again.

A very nice boutique hotel, well-located near the Promenade. Very friendly and helpful owners. Comfortable and very well appointed room with good facilities - only downside being size of room - bit cramped for two people. but then it is converted [to a very high standard] from a lovely Victorian villa, so room sizes can not reasonably be expected to...

We stayed over on Saturday for the jazz festival and were very impressed. Location very close to Lord Street. Quiet well decorated room. Good quality towels, bedding etc. Very friendly owner. Lovely calm breakfast room and bar area. So much nicer than staying in a chain hotel. The highlights were very reasonably priced drinks in the bar and a great... More

This is a lovely hotel which has been tastefully decorated. The owners are welcoming from booking by phone to your arrival. We stayed in room 4 which is not huge (not a problem as such) but is pleasant and comfortable and displays the attention to detail which is evident throughout. We occasionally stay in hotels and having stayed in the... More

Comfortable, clean, quiet and excellent service. Good location too. Booked on the same day as I travelled but that was no problem to them. Good value for money. The single room I had wasn't huge, but was well-appointed.

Thank you so much for doing a review on Tripadvisor for us, we hate asking our guests to leave a review if possible but so many people research the internet nowadays before actually making a booking, so we really do appreciate it. Our single rooms are not overly big, but you can always have a double on a single occupancy... More

Prior to my visit to The Leicester my other visits to Southport were to the Soul Weekender at Pontins along the road! Having a varied schedule of business, I was slightly apprehensive of staying in a "B&B," however from my first conversation with Lorraine and my first breakfast cooked by Louise, my worries dissipated instantly. If hotels are to stay... More

My first stay at the Leicester was excellent! Louise and Lorraine do a first class job - the decor is designer and very well maintained. My room was very comfortable and very clean. The breakfasts with locally sourced ingredients was very enjoyable. Off-street parking at the front, close to the Promenade and Lord Street.
