It was good , the breakfast was fantastic, the only hitch is not having a microwave available in the rooms, not helpful in a situation when you have little ones with yourself

Check-in was efficient. However, the room had an issue with the air-conditioning. Therefore it was extremely stuffy in the room and made sleep very uncomfortable. Didn't complain as it was very late by the time we got into our room so just wanted to try and get some rest.

Weekend in Leicester.

Nice hotel, good location and a lovely room but in this day and age, a shower over a bath is an anachronism. I would rather see a walk in shower. The lack of any handrails made showering a bit perilous.

Another fantastic stay at Novotel Leicester

Couldn’t fault anything. Friendly staff, great room, good breakfast. Particular shout out to the guy behind the bar who was really on the ball (did ask his name but I’ve forgotten it!!) This is our third stay and won’t go anywhere else if we are stopping over in Leicester. Thank you!
