Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had very good quality rooms but with major issues such as a tiny size, broken plug rendering it unusable, and hideous decorations. The main bedroom was unpleasant with stained and uncomfortable beds. The facilities were a disappointment as the restaurant and bar were unexpectedly closed, although the breakfast was good.
The hotel is located in an excellent spot with easy access to the shopping center. The rooms are small and would benefit from repairs, but it's very quiet being on the 1st floor at the rear of the hotel. The service was great, with an amazing building and location. The dining experience was okay but could improve in terms of variety. The location is superb for exploring Derby on foot, although the hotel shows signs of wear when moving away from the grand hallway.
The hotel has a lovely inner courtyard but was marred by pigeons and scuff marks in the room, making it feel more dark than airy. The service lacked communication and readiness for morning offerings but parking was convenient for large vehicles. The location is peaceful but lacks certain attractions. The dining experience left much to be desired compared to other establishments in the area.
