Breakfast draws strong praise, while dinner and bar experiences are mixed, with occasional bland or undercooked dishes and event-night quirks. Rooms feel well designed and restful, though some guests report noise from neighbours or ventilation and a few small maintenance issues. Cleanliness is widely commended, but occasional housekeeping lapses and rare water-supply problems are noted. Best for design-focused stays near the stadium; pre-book parking and keep dining expectations modest.

Facilities
On-site parking is very limited and paid, so many guests advise pre-booking or using nearby car parks; several also found pricing high. On rugby or busy event nights, plastic cups are used in the bar and hours may be curtailed.

Great stay to watch the rugby and get the use of plastic glasses whilst the game is on, but surely 2 hours after the game finishes you should be able to get a proper glass, especially when drinking wine or spirits, everything else was great, but this is a massive let down, especially when you pay £200 to stay the night

Lovely room. Shame about the cigerette butts in plants on the terrace that have been left. Very annoyed that the hotel only has 20 car parking spaces and only had an email the night before to warn us about booking. Phoned to pre book a space as a blue badge holder and was fully booked. The managers response is we should have read up on this when booking. Not a great attitude to have. Hotel is convenient for a night out in Leicester.

Lovely hotel with modern spacious rooms in a Style inspired by cool latin jazz/ West side story theme. Very dressy but relaxed atmosphere. Parking is a issue as the hotel only has a tiny car park. We found the adjacent multi storey car park was well monitored u barriers and cctv at £13.30 for 24 hours.

Lovely stay, accommodating staff and great overall cleanliness of the room and building. Only thing I’d say is it was a little dusty in some parts of the room but that’s very minor. The shower was probably one of the best I’ve ever used in a hotel. I’d highly recommend and would stay here again.

Although a stated 4-star hotel, it didn’t feel like that. There were stains on my duvet cover when I had just checked in (they are supposed to be clean and fresh- I made them change all the bedding) and the shower head had limescale and grime. The housekeeping and repair of the some fixtures needs to be better taken care of and improved. Was disappointed with the experience.

During our stay at VOCO Leicester, we were thoroughly impressed by the overall experience. The hotel is beautifully designed and perfectly situated in the heart of the city center. The rooms are wonderful, very clean and the bed was exceptionally comfortable, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. We encountered a minor issue with the sink, but the team were helpful and sorted out a resolve.

Modern. Well equipped. Central hotel that is ideal for accessing the rugby stadium or universities. The room was very clean except someone left shaving remnants in the sink. Parking is very limited (only 20 spaces) and has to be booked weeks in advance. There is an NCP car park 10 mins walk away that’s much cheaper and has more spaces

The noise is horrendous especially if triggered in the middle of the night! Additionally the beer in the bar was very poor (Stella). It was completely flat and should not have been served. Everything else about my stay was good.

A really nice property. Modern, clean and with spacious room. All staff members were super friendly and helpful. Shower deserves a special mention. You can put it on before entering it and it’s lovely and powerful. Beds were super comfortable too. Only negative is that the music from the bar can get loud if you are staying on the first floor and there’s a celebration going on.

I booked a balcony room and the people in the neighbouring room were had their balcony door open, music on and guests from other rooms in their suite until after 2am. I did speak to reception but there isn't a lot they can do about other people being inconsiderate. The room itself is genuinely lovely and I'd have loved it if the sun had been out and my neighbours hadn't been so annoying. Book a different room here unless you want to risk a group of drunk people screaming outside your window all night I really like this hotel and it's not really their fault but I didn't really get any sleep last night because I had an early start

The room was clean and well presented. Despite the activities outside the hotel it was nice and quiet in the room. The shower is a little challenging because it leaks out through the shower door and floods the bathroom floor. Breakfast is adequate although the cooked breakfast was not very hot.

I was expecting a nice stop over in Leicester, I know it was a new hotel so i expected a level of service and comfort. When I came there was no parking available and no reference to this in the booking. So I had to go to another carpark on a major ring road. I was staying in the hotel room all evening. The TV was not working, i was told reception would deal with it. They did not. The bed was lumpy and I was woke up by guests around 2pm. It had been difficult to get to sleep as the air con was very noisy, even though I had turned it off. I was asked about m stay at check out, I mentioned a couple of things like the noise and TV. The receptionist told me a manager would contact me via email, 5 days later I am still waiting. My one word for my stay is disappointed.

Great facilities for a stay after the rugby, but wish we hadn’t opted for breakfast. I waited over an hour for a custom breakfast choice for it to never turn up! There was no communication from the staff regarding a delay and I had to check what happened. They reported that the chef was overwhelmed in what was then a near empty restaurant. Upon their advice it would be a further 10 mins, and no apology for the delay, I ended up missing the buffet to eat. Also the queues on rugby days are horrendous - staff not efficient and seem disengaged. Shame as the hotel is ideal with our tigers season ticket. Though the reception team were friendly and let us check in early.

Stayed here last night. The hotel was modern and nice, but the service was poor. I was told I could only eat in the bar lobby as the restaurant was booked for an event. Later, the bar closed, and I was told to order drinks from the restaurant, only to be confronted by the event hosts and asked to leave. Mentioned this at checkout, but all I got was a quick apology. Poor organisation and customer care ruined the experience.

We booked breakfast and it was amazing. Reception even booked parking for us as the hotel parking was full. Cant fault this hotel. Would definitely stay again if we ever need to stay over in Leicester.

Very well-appointed rooms. Extremely convenient location next to Leicester Tigers' rugby stadium. Easy stroll into the city centre (10-15mins)

Dining
Breakfast is consistently rated highly for quality and choice, including good gluten-free options. Dinner and bar feedback is mixed, with some bland dishes, slow service, flat beer, disappointing snacks, and a few serious undercooking incidents.

The room and general service was of a very high standard. The beds were comfy, the furnishings were nice and modern, and the staff were all really friendly and helpful. The only downside was The Lair restaurant, which we tried for dinner on our second night. All of the food was fairly underwhelming and bland, and it cost us far more than expected (plus a 12.5% gratuity added to the bill, despite just two of us eating a couple of courses). After such nice food out and about in Leicester, I certainly wouldn't rush back to the in-hotel restaurant.

Lovely hotel, room was 10/10, good value. However quite thin walls, you could hear the chairs scraping on other floors (probably from the restaurant) which woke me up. Bathroom fan also ridiculously loud and annoying. Restaurant food was sub-par, slightly disappointing, the dishes did not match what was on the menu, definitely not worth the price. Staff were great and breakfast was lovely.

Everything good although room 234 exec suite has a major issue with noise generated by the bathroom light triggering extractor fan in the main bedroom. The noise is horrendous especially if triggered in the middle of the night! Additionally the beer in the bar was very poor (Stella). It was completely flat and should not have been served. Everything else about my stay was good.

Booked room types were not available. Understaffed, leading to lot of problems - long check in queues, unable to clean breakfast tables etc

No car parking. Then they give you a rubbish list of post codes for parking that take you to some dodgy areas where your car is likely to get robbed. Plus they cost £41 per day. Then breakfast was awful. No clean
