“Grafton House presents a practical base in Leicester, where the staff's eagerness to assist, from borrowing chargers to holding luggage, genuinely shines through the no-frills setup. The rooms, though basic, are kept very clean, with a strong emphasis on hot showers and comfortable beds, all contributing to its solid value, especially given its proximity to transport links and the city centre.”
