This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. I was really reluctant to write this review as everyone I spoke to at the hotel during my stay was helpful and friendly, the staff there were top. However after complaining about the stay when checking out, again the woman I spoke to was lovely but said a manager would need to get in touch. It’s been four days and the owner/manager hasn’t. I gave them the opportunity to get in touch and see what went wrong, now I just need to be honest about the stay. This was the worst night sleep I ever had, in a hotel or otherwise. We paid for a suite, so one of the nicest rooms in the hotel. However from the moment we got in the room it was unbearable. The heat in the room was like being in a sauna - that isn’t an exaggeration. We went around the room to see if there were any radiators on that we didn’t spot! Unbearable. There is no air conditioning in the room just a tiny fan left on the side for us to use. That provided no relief. Maybe your thinking open a window, they are prevented from opening more than a few inches. So we were just stuck in this unbearable room with no alternative. In order to get the 2 hours sleep I did get that night. I had to get up and stand in a cold shower multiple times. This was a stop on a road trip my wife and I were having for our honeymoon. I rated all the other hotels 5 star they were amazing. This put a real downer in our otherwise perfect trip. I was embarrassed picking this hotel to stay in as one of our stops. Avoid it like the plague.

I had to wait a little at the beginning as for some reason my booking wasn’t showing on their system. However I was given an upgraded room due to this. The first room smelt of cannabis and the edge of the bed metal piece was sticking out with shower gel half empty. Therefore I was given another room which was in excellent condition, it was a lot bigger with a massive TV screen. This hotel’s bathroom had a hair dryer and a hair straightener too. They also had an ironing board. The person at the reception was very friendly, smiled no matter what and even offered tea whilst I was waiting. Some of the rooms had good views example you could see the Leicester wheel.

We were prepared for college dorm rooms. But this hotel has transitioned nicely from its beginnings. I'd recommend getting a room with 2 beds if you are a couple, as they are small. The bathroom is very sizable. The only, minor, downside is if you have a heavy bag (50+lbs), there is no elevator. So you will be hauling it up the stairs. We would definitely stay here again.

Myself and my family had an amazing time - the portions of the Christmas meal were so big and so tasty I was surprised at how generous the servings were!! The service was spot on and very professional. The kids got beautifully wrapped presents which they were so happy with - a super friendly Santa Claus went round to meet and greet all tables and the kids were so happy - the tables were personalised with named table settings which was a lovely special touch - there was a lovely kids play area- the staff were super friendly and couldn't do enough for us to make us comfortable and if we needed anything extra they sorted out for us immediately. Well done to all the Winstanley team you are all amazing!!!! Thank you so much - our Christmas was stress free with no stress making Christmas dinner and the kids all had a fab time and all my family were impressed 💕 This is the first time we have decided to have Christmas dinner out and we were not disappointed it was fab, great atmosphere, music and decorations overall perfect experience. Massive thank you to all the amazing team once again at Winstanley House ♡

I was spending the weekend with my friend and travelling by motorbike. I was worried about leaving my bike on the street so I rang in the morning and they assured me there would be somewhere secure for me to leave my bike. Sure enough, upon arrival the guy was waiting for me with the gate open to park my bike behind the hostel. He took me through to the reception and although I did not eat or drink, the hostel was very cosy, quiet and everything in the city was easily accessible on foot. For the price the room was spacious, well equipped with a tv and sink, clean and comfy. When I checked out they let me leave my luggage, leathers and bike gear for hours while I had lunch. Outstanding service, excellent value for money. Would recommend and would stay again.

There's no way anyone could feasibly give Glenfield Lodge 5* and I'm sure the owners don't even strive for that. It's less than a mile from the city centre and is basic - it's mainly used by companies to accommodate construction workers during the week. The room had a working basic TV, kettle, and sink. The toilet and bathroom (both very clean and functional) were at the end of the passage. The building is tired internally. No doubt about that. It is a place just to sleep but - here's the rest of it. The gentleman on duty was polite, friendly and thorough. Even though we were only staying for one night we were treated very well. The beds and bedding were clean and very comfortable. To our surprise, it was extremely quiet. Either no one stats there at the weekends or the residents are very considerate. And now the biggest thing - £37 for a twin room booked only a few days in advance. Incredible value for money.

The location is a certain distance from the city center, but Leicester is very convenient to take a taxi, and it is safe on the main road. Hotel hygiene is good, relatively comfortable, it is recommended to stay

We got married at the city rooms just last week. It was such an amazing day. Everything went exactly how we'd planned. Emily and the entire staff were excellent. The cleaners were brilliant. The Operations manager was fantastic. The food was excellent and so many people said it was the best wedding they'd been to. A massive thank you to Emily and the entire team for helping us with our very special day
