Lord Leycester Hotel  

The location was about the only thing we liked.

No parking available when we arrived. Took 15-20 minutes for someone to check us in as receptionist was busy serving drinks in the bar. Another guest noticed us standing there for a while so went to the restaurant and pulled a staff member from there to help us finally. Room was hard to find through labyrinth of corridors. Room was cold. Bathroom was old and not caulked properly. Carpet looked dirty. The hotel smelled funny. Decor was old and tired looking. It just wasn't a pleasant experience for us all around. Unfortunate as Warwick is lovely. We came to see friends who live there within walking distance of the hotel and when we come back again to visit them we will not be staying at this place.

Breakfasts great, staff courteous.

This was my fourth stay at The Lord Leycester and they still haven't fixed the problem with the heat hotelwide. (Too hot)

The hotel , although recently decorated was very dated. The first room was unacceptable with a bathroom fan about to fall off the ceiling . The second room was very far from reception and although better, took a long time to get to because of many stairs. We had to pay before going to the room, but we decided to go to another hotel and forfeit our £89

The staff (we thought there should have been more staff!!) were absoloutely wonderful particularly Rory who seemed to be able to do any job in the hotel.

Hotel itself looks tired everything was spotlessly clean but bedroom and public areas looked tired.Bedroom was small both beds against walls, unable to see T.V. which was unacessable, too high up and too small.Woken at 7.15 am on Sat morning by dreadful noise from what appaered to be the extractor fan which was located a foot away from our bedroom window. I complained to reception and the young lady assured be it would not happen the next morning.This in fact was managed beautifully and we woke naturally at 8.00 am. I was also suprised that there seemed to be no retaurant facilities in the hotel.

Central location close to the Racecourse (where we were heading) and amongst numerous restaurants and Castle. Perfect for our requirements within a budget. Clean and comfortable with complimentary teas/coffees/shower gel/shampoo etc. Choice of teas in room, E.G. Earl Grey and Green Tea, sugar and sugar substitutes which were replenished daily. Staff chatty, polite and helpful. Free car park. Would recommend this character hotel. Strange breakfast arrangements in that nothing was visible and no menu, however, whatever we asked for we got!

No complaints - beds were comfy. The room was clean, we slept really well. Staff were helpful and friendly. Perfect location for our needs

Breakfast was pleasant, and servers were polite, and efficient, although it would have been nice to have some fresh fruit as an option, with perhaps some yogurt.

Reception staff couldnt be bothered to help, or move, and the room was very dated. In definite need of a new mattress, woke several times with being in extreme discomfort with its lumps and bumps, let alone the room smelling of wet dog on entering.

I think the location of the hotel was excellent the room was comfortable and had all facilities necessary lovely hot showers comfy beds, central location plenty of parking. There was lots of reviews on the website stating cold showers but i think many people did not realise you had to switch the hot water on by flicking a switch just outside the bathroom. may explain why they had cold showers. I found the staff friendly and helpful.

We spent our honeymoon there during the cold snap in december 2010 and found the hotel warm and comforting throughout,

Close to Warwick castle.

Found a nail file within the sheets and strongly suspect the sheets hadn't been changed. The window leaked air as though open and could not be adjusted. Noise from people and cars on the street kept us awake most of the night. The tile floor in the bath room is SOFT! Could hear footsteps around our bed (hopefully this was from the room above and not a ghost!) The room was TINY! No place to put our second bag. We left early to get some sleep.

It is still a good, old-fashioned English Hotel. A lovely big room, bed and TV. Plenty of storage space. Fantastic towels, which were not whisked away after one use, thankfully, but clean ones were left to use if we needed them. Good breakfast. Staff helpful and friendly.

A shame it has not restaurant at the moment. It does not seem fair to charge the same for full English breakfast and Continental breakfast.

Lovely and clean, although our room was on the small side, with no towels or soaps in the room we had to ask for these

Our bedroom was located in a corridor that was very creaky and sounded like the other residents were about to come in to our room
