My kids had a lovely stay in the family room for 4. Clean and comfortable and the breakfast selection was good - lots of options on the fresh fruit, which we all loved! Will definitely stay here again if we find ourselves in Leicester again.

car park isnt the easiest to find if your not from the area, staff very friendly and rooms were nice and clean. Not sure on all the mirrored surfaces, takes a while to get used to them and the sliding toilet door not sealing makes privacy limited.
