Description
Wedding Mall offers this stunning venue for you to consider for your wedding day.
The City Rooms set in the heart of Leicestershire
Venue type: Historic Building
Description: The City Rooms is an excellent City centre venue for both small and large weddings. The historic venue first conceived in 1792, was intended to become LeicesterÂs first hotel, to house the visitors to the Leicester Races held at Victoria Park. The hotel, however, was never completed and was subsequently sold with the ground floor being used as a coffee house and the upper floors for banquets, wedding receptions and balls. Having completed a careful two year restoration, the building has been given a new lease of life, and is being used as intended for the first time in more than 200 years.
