Top King Richard III Visitor Centre Hotel Reviews

Novotel Leicester

10/10 Excellent

"Great location! Amazing staff! Great bar team!"

The Belmont Hotel

8/10 Good

"Clean room, no Aircon though a fan was provided. Really good staff. Small carpark but the road to the overflow carpark was shocking."

The Grand Hotel Leicester by The Unlimited Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Disclaimer: Building was still undergoing renovation during my visit. Building - Even with that, this one of the nicest hotels I've stayed in. The reception/lobby/restaurant/bar area on the ground floor carries a good style and clean design. With a little exploration there are wonderful meeting and conference rooms, which were not in use when I went for a wander. Ammenities - Poked my head in the gym, there is a gym. Room carried the essentials, well supplied with coffee and tea. Very handy for me as it was a packed weekend. I would double check towels, some of mine had marks. But solo traveller, I used the 'spare' set with no difficulty. Staff were professional and helpful at every encounter. Though I didn't go to the bar or restaurant on this trip. The appearance of the space is encouraging."

Villare Leicester City Centre Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic Hotel … and excellent staff."

The City Rooms
