Standard fare but a lacklustre experience.

Conveniently located and pretty standard Holiday Inn fare. However, there were cleanliness issues with the bathroom and bedding - though i didnt bring these to the attention of the staff as we weren't there all that long. Service in the adjoining Bella Italia was really poor though. Emma at check in was a star though. Give her all the pay rises.

Staff were lovely and always willing to help, breakfast was decent with a good range, but rooms could be upgraded as they are very dated and drab, a quiet enough area, but a bit noisy with kids at night in the room above

Another great stay at Wigston Holiday Inn. We were greeted by Karan who is a very pleasant front of the house staff. Very kindly upgraded us to an executive room. We stay here a lot when we visit our son who is at University here. it’s convenient, has free parking which is a great bonus in Leicester!! The only downside this time was that there was a 30th birthday party on-site which had loud music late into the night which was a bit disturbing for going to sleep…
