I chose Ramada Encore Leicester for its proximity to Curve Theatre. Upon arrival an, in fact, every time I interacted with the hotel staff, service was excellent. The room was clean and airy, I appreciated the wood floors. The hotel itself was quiet and neat. I did stay up late on Friday and Saturday nights due to the noise coming down from the street below (people partying), but it didn't last terribly late, only till about 1am or so, and I didn't have to be up very early on either following morning, so it was only a mild annoyance, really. The shower was good, better than most hotels I've stayed in. Water pressure was excellent and there was plenty of hot water (and the water temperature didn't fluctuate). If I'm ever back in the Leicester to see another play, this is the hotel I'll be staying in.
