Leicester conference and hotel site up for sale following closure

A 1.98-acre Grade II listed conference centre and hotel in Leicester has been brought to market following its recent closure. Known as the College Court Conference Centre and Hotel, the University of Leicester is selling the site, which is available through Savills.

Initially designed in the mid-20th century as student accommodation, the five-building complex was refurbished and expanded in 2014 to provide hotel and conferencing facilities. The property features 123 en-suite bedrooms across three buildings, 16 meeting rooms with capacities of up to 200 people, and a comprehensive suite of hospitality infrastructure, including a dining hall, commercial kitchen, lounge bar, and private dining spaces.

Located in the Knighton suburb, just a few miles from Leicester city centre and transport links, the site also offers 105 parking spaces across tarmac and gravel car parks. With its architectural heritage and flexible layout, the property is being marketed for continued hospitality use or potential redevelopment, subject to planning permission.
