EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Savills is delighted to offer College Court Conference & Hotel for sale. Located 3.5 km (2.2 miles) south of Leicester City Centre, it lies within the desirable residential suburb of Knighton. Whilst the Property lies within a secluded setting, it has excellent transport links with Leicester Railway Station only 2.7km (1.7 miles) south, and the A6 providing access to the M1 and M69 motorways. The complex is formed of five detached blocks, totalling circa 72,883 sq ft (6,667 sq m), surrounded by mature landscaping and lawns. This includes three blocks housing 123 en suite bedrooms. At the front of the complex is the standalone reception block, and lying adjacent is the largest block, which is the principal conferencing centre. It also provides parking for up to 105 cars and covered bicycle store. It was operated by the University of Leicester up until May 2025. Originally designed by architects Sir Leslie Martin and Trevor Dannatt, it was constructed in the late 1950/early 1960s as student halls of residence for the University of Leicester. It was repurposed, extended, and refurbished into a conference centre and hotel in 2014. The works retained many of the original features. All the buildings are Grade II Listed. It presents a unique and prestigious opportunity to acquire for either continued existing or alternative use (subject to planning). Further information can be found in the Property’s marketing particulars. Access to the data room will be provided by the agents.
