8.2/10

The hotel is in a lovely area with beautiful views at the back. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, including a sofa bed perfect for our little girl. The service was fantastic with Ben F as our waiter, making our arrangements smooth. Dining, while delicious, lacked some essentials like bread. The location is ideal for exploring the attractions of the Derbyshire dales. The price offered great value for money, making it a convenient choice for families.

This hotel exceeded my expectations with its fantastic location near Alton Towers, friendly staff, and lovely surroundings. The room had excellent little extras and a real coffee machine, but the dining options were limited. The quaint pub nearby was a nice touch but had a narrow dining selection. Despite minor dining issues, the overall experience was great.

The hotel is situated in a lovely area with fields to the rear and is close to Derby centre. The rooms are decorated with lovely touches and offer beautiful views at the back. The dining experience, although delicious, lacked bread, but featured a variety of fruits, cereals, and toast. The service was impeccable, especially with Ben F as our waiter. The location in the Mickleover area of Derby provides easy access to a very well-established pub. My stay was truly enjoyable with great amenities but could have had more dining options.
