Willington, near Derby

"A spacious and comfortable lodge with a pleasant view of the lake (not the marina). It is in a quiet spot slightly uphill from the marina itself. Apart from the Canada geese on the grass, we saw tufted ducks on the lake, a heron in the reeds and oystercatchers on the grass. Plus other birds in the trees. Please note that the cooling towers are not visible from the lodge because of the trees. In any case they are decommissioned."

Top National Forest Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Birmingham Brindley Place

10/10 Excellent

"..."

The Arden Hotel & Leisure Club

8/10 Good

"Reception staff very helpful and friendly. Quick and easy check in. Pool nice to use after a long day. Food and drinks in bar are good value. Walk to airport is about 10 minutes then the monorail - not easy with bags but for price good value. Main downside was the rooms are very very very warm. We stayed post and pre flight and was far to warm to sleep. They provide fan in room but windows open a few CMs and that’s not much good with no A/C. Overall a pleasant stay and would recommend - maybe not in July and August though!!!"

Hampton by Hilton Birmingham Broad Street

10/10 Excellent

"At the moment I don’t have any more ideas to give because for my first impression and first visit it was excellent the staff were very helpful even when the system was down but the could serve us with an excellent customer support with all the patience the did not panic to help us Well done"
