Abbey Hotel Reviews

Seemed like a long walk from the train station to the hotel passing thru town and going onto an area which looked industrial and a little run down and filled with suburban malls and empty carparks. Google maps said 38 mins. I walked but it will be a short cab ride (prob ＜ 7 Pounds by Uber). The hotel is by the main road facing a walled park. First impressions were i don’t want to be walking home after dark (very few ppl around) and there didn’t seem to be much around it (except for the Indian restaurant affiliated to the hotel which was closed when I came). The entrance is small and not always manned. I tried contacting them to say I would come in early to drop my bags but didn’t get a proper answer. Fortunately, when I rang the bell, someone opened the door and reluctantly took my bag in. Despite my initial negative impressions, the lady who attended to me (Hanna the owner) late that evening was a complete sweetheart. The following day in the early morning when I could see things clearer and familiarise myself with my bearings, I formed a completely different impression. The adjacent park, Abbey Park is stunning and worth spending a few hours. It is a short walk to the city center (20 mins). I don’t think Leicester is doing well economically as the signs were prevalent in many parts of town. There are beautiful parts (downtown & old quarters) and the most pretty part was the park opposite this hotel.

Lovely friendly staff was made to feel welcome as soon as we walked in very nice and clean room, bed very comfy would definitely stay again and the breakfast was great 👍

Standard room was nice and cozy. Customer service was really great. Just felt kettle in the room was not cleaned well.

Was okaii not a great experience room was clean and tidy but quite small

Our stay here was nice. The hotel is close to local amenities. Only downside is it doesn’t have a lift so you have to pull your luggages up the stairs.

Gets you the best bang for your money. Staff are nice and friendly.

This hotel is very clean and quiet, good for sleeping. There are three supermarkets near the hotel, so It is very convenient for me to buy food for cooking, but only microwaves is provided, not any cooking utensils. Help desk is helpful.

Very small rooms several small snagging issues ie lights not working loose fittings

The lady by the name Hannah was so kind and helpful. She arranged an early breakfast for our team and we really enjoyed the stay.

Solid hotel for the price, restaurant connected is very good. Beds are comfy and good power showers. Carpark at the rear well lit.

Staff are amazing! I always enjoy my stay here. Location is very close to town and right next the Range. Would 100% recommend.

nice location and clean hotel friendly staff and we had good stay at hotel so far

I loved it so much I didn't want to leave. It would be my go-to place whenever I'm in Leicester again. The receptionist was lovely as well. It's easy and very much comfortable. I would recommend it to anyone.

Lovely place to stay staff are so friendly rooms are so clean warm comfortable nice big tv
