My family and I stayed here over a weekend in January and had a good stay. The staff were helpful. Hotel rooms were very clean and the breakfast was decent. The hotel is well located for Derby town centre, but there's also quite alot on Pride Park itself. We were with our children so we ate at the nearby Frankie... More

Perfect base for going to the football, pleasing foyer area, within walking distance of town, good breakfast, Harvester over road is good value for evening meals. More

I stayed at the holiday inn express for 3 nights on a recent business trip. The hotel is in a great location, being close to the train station, Derby centre and all the amenities that go with it. I found the room to be clean and comfortable and the staff were very helpful. The only downside was the air con... More

Like some of the previous reviewers I feel that the introduction of the cooked breakfast has reduced the rating of this hotel. I have stayed at it many times- the last being over 18months ago - and previously I would have rated it highly as it is always clean and well appointed as it was at our recent visit. The... More

This was my 2nd stay in 3 years span. The room was typical for a Holiday Inn Express, but as usual, the closet space was inadequate. If traveling on business, a person needs to hang their dress clothes. I wish these supposedly "business friendly" hotels could learn this simple fact.

The beds are comfortable with both firm and soft pillows provided. The bath towels are very small. The room was cold though the... More

My family and I stayed recently on a trip up to Derby to see family. The initial impression of the hotel is one of being clean and comfortable where as unfortunately the first impression of the staff were that they were miserable. I only say this since there was no greeting when we arrived no: Hello and welcome, how can... More

We had a overnight stay on route home. The reception staff (Amy) was welcoming and informative. Our room was as expected clean and comfortable. We were allowed to leave our car and walk into Derby centre (11 min walk) Breakfast was self service, hot and in good quanities. The staff were re filling and paying attention at all times.

This is a basic hotel and for that it's OK. The room was cold and the air con/heater was noisy. Breakfast was very poor. However, the staff were really friendly and helpful. Ideal for football fans going to see Derby as it is right next door. More
