About our host

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Leicester, The Gresham Aparthotel is a glorious blend of heritage and contemporary luxury, inviting guests into an experience that truly feels like home, but elevated. Housed in a magnificent Victorian gem designed by Isaac Barradale in 1884, the building originally hosted Joseph Johnson’s locally beloved department store. Over time, it evolved, first into a unified architectural marvel by Fosbrooke and Bedingfield by 1926, and later into the iconic Fenwick store before closing its doors in 2017.

After an imaginative and careful £17 million refurbishment, the Gresham Aparthotel opened its doors in November 2021, now offering 121 stylish studios and apartments equipped with kitchenettes, elegant living areas, and luxurious en-suites. The transformation also introduced a lively on-site bar and restaurant, which offers contemporary dining serving both guests and the public. Breakfast is highly recommended! The Gresham also boasts a fitness suite, laundry facilities, and a rooftop terrace offering city glimpses.

The Gresham is a perfect location for business travellers, with bedrooms and suites offering great space to work and relax, giving you a home-from-home feel, ideal for longer stays, or those visiting the region.

Summoning the grandeur of its storied past while offering modern living comforts, The Gresham Aparthotel invites guests to step into Leicester’s rich tapestry, where history, luxury, and community converge.
