Only recommend if you are staying one night to catch a morning flight from East Midlands. VERY basic hotel. Bedroom and bathroom(with towels), is about all you get. No hair dryer or ironing board in the rooms. Rooms can over look shopping complex below (open 24/7). Hotel desperately needs a renovation. more

We have family in the Midlands area and also use East midlands airport frequently. We have stayed here several times the last time being earlier this week. We have always found the rooms to be clean and well equipped with plenty of hot water. We use the travelodge sales a lot and get a room for £9. Tip - book... more

I have stayed at this hotel many times over the last 6 months. It is located on top of Donington M1 services, and is a typical no frills Travelodge hotel, with disinterested staff. The rooms could do with a clean as they are generally damp smelling/dusty/dirty. It is pot luck whether the tv in the room has a remote control,... more

Solidly awful. Really soul-destroyingly bad. I love a bargain and got the room for £22, but as soon as I got there I knew it was a mistake and cursed myself for being so tight. The baby started crying straight away and deciding to risk finding another hotel (at 4pm on a Friday afternoon in summer) was a no-brainer. The... more

Stayed here for 2 nights because our grandson was bmx racing in Derby. Hotel is made up of 2 long corridors opposite each other with shops and cafes underneath. We were on one side and our daughter and family were on the other. While we had a quiet night it was not so on the other side. There was a... more

Reason for stay: A stop off before travelling to Yorkshire for a holiday on Saturday. Prices/booking: We paid £9.00 for the room only no breakfast, we actually booked this months ago when the sale was on! Booking was easy with no problems! Location: The hotel is situated in a service station near Donnington race track. Its perfect for track days... more

Stayed here before an early flight from East Midlands. Absolutely awful. Room was unclean - footprints on bed sheets, excrement in the toilet and a stinking shower curtain to name just a few of the problems. For a £25 stay (please do not spend a penny more at this place!) I do not expect the newest decor nor the range... more

We stayed for one night before a flight and really wish we hadn't been tight with the money and paid more for a better place. That same week we had stayed at a Premier Inn and we so wished we had booked the one by the airport but hindsight is a wonderful thing! The problems: The room was cold, despite... more

I walked to the hotel from East Midlands Airport, it took me about 25 mins. For those wishing to go on foot here are the directions. From arrivals head towards the petrol station situated at the entrance to the airport grounds, continue straight on towards the T-juction, but turn left onto the "Airport footpath" , which is separated from the... more
