But was good it was lit & warmed up for us on arrival. A very enjoyable stay, although we left a lot of food & drink in the fridge & we were almost home by the time we realised 😞"

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at the Gresham Aparthotel was great! We stayed for one night, and as the price was so cheap, I was sceptical at first. However, it exceeded my expectations. The room was very spacious, modern and exceptionally clean. The hotel was right in the city centre, within easy walking distance of all the places we wanted to visit. The reception staff were very welcoming and helpful. The hotel is above a bar, but it has a very quiet, chilled atmosphere, with mostly people working on laptops there. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in Leicester. It was great value for money!"

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed 2 nights with our dog during a tour of the Rutland area and further afield. We were really impressed by the hotel - great location, friendly and helpful staff, lovely walks locally, well maintained facilities, lots of spaces for chilling out, lovely food and welcoming of our dog in all locations. We had a lovely stay and this hotel is high on our list for a return, perhaps without our dog so we can use the spa facilities! The only slight negatives were that the room looked a little tired (we understand that there's a major refurb on the way) but it was perfectly fine and perhaps now is the time to get a good price before the refurb! And, a small gripe, the lovely breakfast was spoiled by having to make our own toast using two toasters that couldn't brown both sides of the bread at the same time (I spend many minutes standing around with others trying to get a decent slice to go with my eggs) - a minor but irritating annoyance. But overall a fantastic stay, thank you."

"Overall a good stay. I stayed in the cosy double room and all I would say is the bed was really hard. Also the room was right by the door so it was noisy as times. Breakfast was good. We tried booking in for dinner on the first evening however it was full so we ordered a delivery to the hotel as it was late. No food service in the evening which I thought was odd. The hotel did try and book us in for the other nights though."
