Hilton Leicester

Leicester Hilton was good overall. Bathroom a little tired overall. No sockets for charging phone(s), watch, ipad , power bank by bed which is odd?!? Good breakfast and good value.

The spacious room itself is a bit tired looking, but it is more than made up by the excellent personal service and the equally excellent sumptuous breakfast (with wafer maker!). The swimming pool is also very good - 18 metres - enough to do a few decent lengths. There is also gym facilities which is also very good from the outside. We ate at Grove Farm (carvery as well as extensive family menu) which is several minutes' drive and excellent value. £6 to park overnight. Very quick checkout.

Hotel good, well appointed and decorated, great breakfast. Family room ideal with 2 large double beds and a sofa bed. Staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful. Would have preferred a room that was away from traffic noise. Also beds could do with being memory foam as they didn’t have much padding. No good for a bad back. However they were happy to put extra mattress covers on beds to try to pad them out. We usually get complimentary biscuits in hotel rooms but they didn’t supply them, which seemed unusual.

Stayed overnight as we were attending a wedding in the area. Hotel was lovely and staff excellent. Under the bed was dirty but the room in general was really nice. Pillows were far too soft but acceptable. Pool facilities were clean and pleasant to use. Breakfast was lovely Felt a bit cheated having to pay extra for car parking to stay as it was on the motorway so what do they expect you to do with your car ?? Overall a lovely hotel and we would stay again.

Very nice hotel, well located only one problem....... Rats, I seen at least 5 when I walked from the front door to my car!!!
