3-Star Hotels in Leicester

We really loved our experience at this hotel, we made a request for our room to be on the ground floor and also for a fan to be in our room, our request was acknowledged straight away and we were assured we would receive what we asked for, amazing customer service

The location is perfect and the room was clean. The amenities are the best. They had complementary water bottles (which seems like a luxury in many hotels these days), ear plugs, a small fridge and coffee pods. Well thought out and the bed was nice to sleep.

I was satisfied with the excellent service from the front desk staff. The room was advertised as 35 square meters on Trip.com, but the actual size was different. The room was generally clean and tidy, but it was a bit stuffy during the day because there was no air conditioning. The hotel parking lot is free, and there are plenty of spaces – great! There's also a pub downstairs where you can watch sports.

Seemed like a long walk from the train station to the hotel passing thru town and going onto an area which looked industrial and a little run down and filled with suburban malls and empty carparks. Google maps said 38 mins. I walked but it will be a short cab ride (prob ＜ 7 Pounds by Uber). The hotel is by the main road facing a walled park. First impressions were i don’t want to be walking home after dark (very few ppl around) and there didn’t seem to be much around it (except for the Indian restaurant affiliated to the hotel which was closed when I came). The entrance is small and not always manned. I tried contacting them to say I would come in early to drop my bags but didn’t get a proper answer. Fortunately, when I rang the bell, someone opened the door and reluctantly took my bag in. Despite my initial negative impressions, the lady who attended to me (Hanna the owner) late that evening was a complete sweetheart. The following day in the early morning when I could see things clearer and familiarise myself with my bearings, I formed a completely different impression. The adjacent park, Abbey Park is stunning and worth spending a few hours. It is a short walk to the city center (20 mins). I don’t think Leicester is doing well economically as the signs were prevalent in many parts of town. There are beautiful parts (downtown & old quarters) and the most pretty part was the park opposite this hotel.

The guest house was easy to find with approximately three parking bays outside the front. We arrived late, so had to phone the mobile number provided, and were greeted with prompt and efficient service to take us directly to our room. The room exceeded expectations, considering the price, the facilities were very good, considering the price. The room was warm in the middle of winter and had private access to an outside yard. We had a quiet and peaceful night's sleep, leaving us invigorated for the day ahead. Well done Glen field lodge guest house, we will definitely return if we need to stay in Leicester city centre again. Thankyou.

The facilities are a bit old and the room's soundproofing isn't great... but overall it's clean and tidy. The price is affordable, and it's close to the train station. The owner is also quite enthusiastic. It's a good deal for a single night's stay.

A lovely room clean with a comfortable bed. Only problem was the shower was cold.

The soundproofing is very poor. When the door next door is shut loudly, the wall by my bed actually shakes. It has startled me awake several times. The ventilation system is also inadequate. Cigarette smoke from other rooms drifts into my bathroom and bedroom, which made it impossible for me to sleep all night. Opening the window did not help. There was dust on the bedsheets, and there were biscuit crumbs on the chair.

Although the price is cheap, the experience of settling in is not good.

The checking in and out process was simple with no problems. There are ongoing renovations and improvements. The restaurant was closed however delivery options and nearby eateries and COOP mini market close by. Easy access to city center by bus or a 30 minute walk along the main road through the Victoria park near the University campus. It has a convenient location with an affordable price with free parking available.
