Exceptional South Asian cuisine dominates the food scene with everything from budget curry houses to upscale Gujarati thalis.

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Leicester

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable times to visit Leicester are in January, August, and December, when hotel prices are generally lower. For a comprehensive exploration of the city’s notable landmarks, cultural attractions, and historical sites, a stay of at least 2 to 3 days is recommended. During this time, visitors can enjoy budget-friendly experiences, such as exploring museums, theatres, and monuments, as well as shopping at local markets. Leicester's vibrant university scene adds to its charm, and tourists can expect to encounter friendly locals, making it a great value for money destination, especially for those travelling on a budget. Prices may drop during these months, enhancing the appeal of this cultural hotspot.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: Hotels.com offers a range of options where you may discover hotel deal opportunities to Leicester. For example, check the DealsOpens in a new window section to see offers that could include the best hotel deal in Leicester. If your plans change, the Last-Minute Deals section provides discounted rates on hotels close to your travel date. Meanwhile, the Smart Shopping feature is a comparison tool available via the app to help travellers compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you're more likely to find the option that suits your needs.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate depending on various factors, including the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year. Therefore, being flexible with your travel dates could help you find a better deal for your stay in a Leicester hotel. If you're interested in a unique experience, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised touch and can sometimes offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we will inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the rates seem a bit high, we can suggest alternative dates that may be more affordable, potentially helping you to secure a more favourable rate.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels situated near the city centre usually tend to be pricier, but with Leicester’s superb public transport links, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel a bit further out that remains well-connected. For those keen to venture into alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby towns, there is often great value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
