Wow... "The Carpark Hotel" Have been intreagued by this place since I used to go to Tesco's under the other Multistory carpark nearby (The first in the country as I understand!) back in the 70's. Always wanted to see inside and to be honest its better than I imagined. Doesn't sound like the service was to fresh mind, unless you need a dodgy hooker!

Thanks for sharing this and putting a decades old question to rest. Great atmosphere. Will have to park there next time I visit my mum.

Cheers!

The reviews this hotel received are fantastic - in a funny sense. The sad part is that it doesn't actually look a bad place.

I have stayed in worse hotels than that in Leicester ! (Best Western in Wigston to name but one)

I get sent to stay in cheap hotels with work and to some this is luxury the premier inn next to the station being the worse being served frozen food , we now are booked into the best western and I find it ok.

Is this still in decent shape or has it been taken over by chavs/ drug addicts?

its pretty well sealed now mate
gates over the front doors

 

[Anythn]

Oh I see, that's a shame.. Cheers mate

 

[SeffyboyUK]

I believe (from a reliable source) it's still doable. Same way we did it in April. Just have to look hard

 

[Anythn]

Well I'll have to check it out then, thanks!
