It was had all the procedures of COVID-19. It was shame that the restaurant and bar were closed as it would have been really nice. The hotel was awfully however my room had a fan which was very useful. Furthermore my bed was massive despite it being a double room. ##### Phoebe Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Sep 27, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Noisy night with music / cars racing outside Double bed - not king size ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Stephen Aug 12, 2020 #### Mercury Hotel The hotel was ok don’t think I would stop again if I was in Leicester would probably check out a different hotel the only good thing I can say it was Good location if you wanted to go In the town centre but unfortunately Checking in wasn’t a good experience seemed to be one rule for some people and another rule for others When Wearing face mask and Hand sanitizing ##### Stephen Stayed 1 night in Aug 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Rachel, Northamptonshire Aug 12, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Absolutely stunning building, tired room. In a room with limited natural light you would expect good electric lighting unfortunately this wasn’t the case. Lots of lights but low wattage bulbs. Bathroom had 4 lights with only 1 working. Staff were lovely throughout. ##### Rachel Stayed 1 night in Aug 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark Mar 19, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Pros and Cons A good location for us to travel by train and visit Richard111 Centre and van Gogh exhibition.Bar/lounge pleasant and staff helpful and welcoming. Sadly we were given a very cold room with a non functioning radiator. The second room was the same but number 3 was ok. We met another guest who told us the heating was down in part of the hotel. ##### Mark Stayed 1 night in Mar 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Nathan Mar 18, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Hot night in Leicester Hotel was overall nice and convenient for my stay.

Never had this experience. Woke up first time Sunday morning at 5.30 and then woke each time someone went by outside. Apart from that, the window could hardly be opened and the breakfast was well under my expectation. ##### Marcus Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mark Feb 22, 2020 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Needs upgrades Run down holes in netting and windows letting cold air in. Workers were excellent and tried really hard. ##### Mark Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karam Feb 21, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel is extremely well maintained, great for the city break. Very affordable, friendly staff and great veggie breakfast. This was served to the table and hot The only disappointment point is the very slow WiFi connection at the hotel.

Since there is no AC or any ventilation in the rooms, you will have to keep window open to avoid suffocation and this noise with open window will make sure that you don't sleep. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Dawn Feb 14, 2020 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Lovely hotel, plenty of space.

Was told last minute they could no longer accommodate me. They did relocate us but our friends were staying at the Mercure so we were separated. When asked how I would be compensated for the inconvenience I received no response. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020
