"Excellent."

Comfortable rooms, clean and tidy. Snuggly beds. Easy access bathroom. Great breakfast. Very, very good staff. Good parking and a smoking area. I know not everyone enjoys a cigarette but for those that do, it's nice to have a designated area. We'll be back.

"Great Value For An Overnight Stop"

I stayed here on a visit to Leicester. I lived in Leicester for many years so knew what to expect from the traffic noise from Narborough Road. My room was on the Narborough Road side of the building and the noise was fine with the windows closed. The room and the breakfast was good. I paid £53 for the room with breakfast which is a bargain. Light sleepers might struggle with the road noise, and if you had to have a window open it would be a lot noisier.

"Avoid at all costs"

I use Premier Inns on a regular basis and this as by far the worst experience I have ever had in one of these hotels. There were not enough staff and due to this there was a constant delay be it booking in, dealing with an issue or in the attached bar/restaurant area. After a long wait for checking I used the restaurant although I could not get a table straight away due to being busy. When I did sit down I ordered a soft drink which did not arrive and after 20 min I had to re-order. My food was slow arriving but of good quality. I ordered another soft drink after my main meal but this never arrived and although I was told my drink would be taken off the bill it was not. The staff were friendly and I have no issues with their service there were simply not enough of them. The waitress said that this was just due to it being a sudden rush that they were not expecting on this day but on speaking with another customer later he said it was exactly the same a few weeks ago on a Monday. The room was small and the bathroom even smaller. The toilet seat was a disgusting yellow colour and I have taken a photo to post on Tripadvisor. Unfortunately I was here for two nights and the next evening was even worse with the restaurant so busy I had to order in. When I went to collect my food I noticed a large number of other hotel stayers doing the same thing and a line of delivery vehicles bringing food to people. Overall avoid this Premier Inn if possible. Normally I have no issues and they are comfortable clean and well staffed just not this one.

"Excellent value"

car parking , wi-fi , tv , courteous and helpful staff and a clean bed , choose your own room temperature , what more do you need ? Possibly the best we have had - certainly in this price bracket . They have twentyfour hour reception , which suited us , we were welcomed at 2.00 am as though it was 2.00 pm .

"Where are the bulldozers when you need them."

£80 for 1 night bed only, (booked last minute) can often mean staying in outstanding hotels. I've stayed in 5 star places such as Coombe Abbey, The Mere Golf etc. However, I know Premier Inn isn't 5 star but enough people have told me they are great value and lovely to stay in. Except Premier Inn Fosse Park is the ugly relation no one talks about. Outside looks a cross between a grotty council block of low rise flats and a communist stallag. Inside is like a prison with carpets. My room was decorated in 1979, the shower pressure was so low the water struggled to get out but gravity was the saviour. I was told I had to eat in the restaurant not the bar and Stella apparently goes flat if served in a Stella Artois chalice, so I was also told it will be a served in a straight glass, I hope they educate the brewer! I cannot recommend anyone to stay here as there is nothing to enjoy except the knowledge I'll never return.

Hotel description Enjoy an out of this world stay at Premier Inn Hotel Leicester Fosse Park. Located a mile away from Fosse Park shopping centre, you'll also be well placed to explore nearby business and leisure attractions like the National Space Centre. Cheer on your team at Leicester City football club. Indulge in some retail therapy at Highcross shopping centre. Catch a few tries at Leicester Tigers rugby club, or watch high-speed action at Silverstone Circuit. And when you're ready to slip into neutral, recharge in our tasty restaurant and relax in your huge comfy bed.
