Holiday Inn NOTTINGHAM by IHG

The hotel was very modern and clean, the staff were very friendly and helpfull

Spacious room with two double beds. Friendly staff, good food and drinks. Nice outdoor patio, which in the heatwave was perfect to sit and enjoy a drink. Great location for access to town and for me and my son, to walk to Trent Bridge Cricket ground for the test match. Shops nearby and other pub/restaurants. Nearby walks along the canal towpath are also good. Parking at £5 per day is an asset for those travelling by car.

This chain hotel exceeded my expectations in every way to be honest. A relative had a bad experience at a different Holiday Inn in Basildon, Essex so I wasn't expecting much. How wrong I was! This was the best chain hotel/motel experience I have had and I've stayed in a large number including the competitors. The room, booked as a standard twin, had two comfortable double beds for a start and was very spacious. Large TV and decent wifi. We opted for the inclusive breakfast and dinner which made the cost very low for what was a very nice restaurant with a great menu for both dinner and breakfast. Also the car park was on site and very secure and spacious and reasonable at £5. Also, having got a fine at a Travelodge for a brief stop whilst asking in reception about parking it was very clear what you had to do with signs in the car park and in reception. But the best thing was the staff. They were all really polite, helpful and friendly and could do enough for you really. Right from the room attendant to the Manager! So I can thoroughly recommend it for a stop over or a short break in Nottingham where in town everybody was really friendly as well. A*****
