The hotel is in South Derby convenient for the A52 and about 3 miles to the city centre. Free Parking is on site and is locked overnight. There is a Lidel and Tesco within 200m of the hotel. Checkin was prompt and we were allocated a room at the back as requested which was quiet. The room was quite tight with little storage space no desk, limited surfaces to put anything ,with a double bed that was comfortable enough. The bathroom was bit more spacious but in need of updating. A good sized continental breakfast in the morning with hot croissants, toast and fresh coffee; cooked breakfast was available but as an extra charge. In our opinion this is good 2 Star hotel.

All in all a good stay, staff were the best thing. Very friendly and helpful. Food in evening also good. Room was comfortable on whole, but my only criticism would be the bathroom was dated and felt cramped due to old fashioned style bath/shower. In any case, I would stay again if in area on work.

Okay for a night

Without sugar coating it, it was a filthy room, staff were great, food was nice, but the room looked nothing like the pictures online! Mouldy bathroom, and i was above the woman's toilets so i constantly heard the hand dryer going up until midnight.

BSB Rest Zone.

We use the Hotel for BSB (British Super Bike) 15mins if Traffic is kind. Staff are 5* Food and service 5* The Salmon and I had the Bacon 🍔 WOW!! Reasonably priced. Bedroom adequate for our needs. Just a wee nit pick. Room 10. The Shower needed to be held as just needed a wee tighten up. Lovely Continental Breakfast. Keep up the good work. We are back in September. The bar is bouncing Saturday Evening. As noise doesn't bother us. Not a problem.

Very disappointing. Little sleep.

Room was very small. Just wide enough for the double bed. Not enough room for a real door on the bathroom, just a sliding panel with no handle. Pillow had a plastic liner of some sort, so i awoke at 4am with damp hair and didnt go back to sleep. At 6am wafts if smoke started to come in the room from people smoking outside. Shower good. Breakfast good. Car parking spaces not wide enough for my car.
