Location info
Guest scores and detailed hotel feedback
Although the decor is basic and the furniture seems a bit dated, it's acceptable for a short stay. The service has its ups and downs, ranging from distant and unhelpful to incredibly apologetic and accommodating. The location is excellent for access to East Midlands Airport and the river Trent, but the surroundings may seem somewhat unkempt. The dining options are good overall, though some items may not be freshly prepared. The facilities offer the essentials for a convenient stay.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of pleasant and disappointing experiences. The room was not luxurious for the price paid, with minor issues like dirty walls and difficult shower access. On the bright side, the large bed and amenities provided some comfort. The service was friendly overall, except for one encounter with a young receptionist. The location by the river was charming, but the dining options were limited. Despite these drawbacks, the newly developed outdoor area and quaint setting added to the ambiance of the stay.
The hotel was smaller and not as clean or comfortable as expected, but the view of the river was lovely. The staff were a mix of unprofessional and helpful. The location by the river was stunning, albeit with some overlooked cleanliness issues. The dining experience was delicious though somewhat limited. Overall, a somewhat mixed experience.
