    The restaurant menu for dinner isn't great and the meals were just about edible. We had the potato and leek soup which was very watery and not very pleasant, and we both had the fish and chips but the fish was mostly batter. I wouldn't recommend dinner here.

    The hotel is lovely. It is clean and modern. The staff are very friendly and pleasant. The room was really nice - very spacious! The bathroom was spotless. Breakfast was really good!

    The fact that we had to leave. I was on the last few days of my annual leave. We wanted to do something to cap it off. So we chose to do the hotel stay. I am happy we did it.

    I loved the room. It was very spacious. My kids loved their room. They even liked that I was able to cast their tablet on to the TV. I think the best thing was the pool. My youngest step daughter is only 3 but she knows how to get in and out of the pool and she is practically swimming after being fearful of the water.

    Overall a pleasant stay.

    It wasn't made clear upon booking that there would be an £8 charge for overnight parking. We weren't initially given the type of room we had requested and that had been confirmed, but when this was changed the key card didn't work and there were dirty glasses sitting outside the room in the corridor. It didn't give a good first impression. Whilst we were able to use the gym early in the morning it was a pity that the pool and steam room didn't open until 7 a.m. which meant we weren't able to use them.

    The breakfast buffet had an excellent choice, the staff were efficient and friendly and everything was well presented. The room was ample, the bed comfortable, the bathroom was good and the hospitality tray was acceptable. The gym was well equipped. The bar staff were efficient and the light meals we had were tasty.

    I couldn't find the slippers ,(I 'm joking 😃) everything was good!

    The room was nice,modern with a big and comfy bed, they offered us an extra bed for the little one. We used the swimming pool and sauna ,which was great after a long drive. Delicious breakfast! We will use it again!

    Parking still a nightmare.

    Parking at this hotel is a nightmare. Obviously a larger carpark is needed but also clear parking bay marking is needed as many selfish guests take far more space than they need. Whilst the food quality was good the portions were too large and the prices were too expensive. Likewise the bar prices were excessively expensive. The water in the pool was on the cold side.

    Attractive modern decor both in room and public areas. Very good size and comfortable room. Quality of food was very good. Apart from the proximity to the airport the location close to Donington Park was a good benefit. Nice swimming pool.
