Leonardo Hotel Nottingham
Nice hotel near city centre, nearby parking is in train station multi story car park £8 weekends but it’s a 10 minute walk away from hotel. Hotel has bar, restaurant, rooms and bathrooms are spacious. Near to shops, bars and restaurants, Nottingham Castle is about 15-20 minute walk. Would stay again ...

The Beeches Hotel and Leisure Club
Burleigh Court Hotel
Everything was perfect. We did not add breakfast whilst booking rooms as we were not sure if we would do breakfast at the hotel. However, we decided to have breakfast on payment however the staff didn’t charge us for the breakfast and said that they had no shows! Nice gesture!
