I have stayed many times at this Holiday Inn Express. It is clean, functional and within walking distance to some good eating places in Leicester. I did not use the adjacent restaurant this time as the menu looked fairly standard fair and there is a lot more choice locally. Plenty of parking, easy access and the standard room decor and facility.
Booked it a few days in advance so expected to pay higher than if done in advance. Still operate smoking rooms which allows a choice.
No WiFi in rooms which is a bit of a let down but free wifi in public areas and it is a good moderate speed.
Nice and quiet so I would recommend it if you just need a good clean place to sleep.

My girlfriend and I were staying in Leicester for just 1 night. This hotel was easy to find with plenty of parking and near to the large shopping centres. Our room was spotless and modern and we could not hear a thing through the walls from anywhere else. Air con worked excellently and reception even provided us with a fan when asked. If I had to find a fault it would be the limited selection of tv channels, they could easily invest in soem freeview boxes. But overall a really nice stay over and good value for £49.

Nine of us stayed here for the weekend. We were visiting UK for a family event. The Hotel staff were very nice and friendly. Elevators to floors. Wi-Fi free in foyer not in rooms! Foyer area includes Reception/Bar & Restaurant - open plan and neat. Rooms/en-suite spotless clean. Tea/Coffee making facilities in room. Service staff very friendly also. Breakfast was included in room cost - plenty of everything Juice, Tea/Coffee,Toast, Cereal, Eggs/Sausages (Sausages not so good though!) Pastries & Preserves, Yoghurts, Fruit - everything fresh. This Hotel was perfect for our short stay in the area. Excellent value for money.

Breakfast is poor, service in the reseption is poor/ angry manager (exept at evening/night). But the rest is great. Bathroom is very nice, comfort bed, clean rooms, and a quiet street. 5-10 min walk to bus stop where city bus stops every 10 min. Cinema just around the corner and some ok restaurants some minuts away. Also goKidsgo 500 m from the hotel. And King Power stadium (Leicester C FC) and mega store 50 m away. I have stayed in 4 different hotels in Leicester, and this one is the best so far. I have stayed here 2 times the last 3 years, for 5 and 3 days. So this one is recommended!
