Mercure Nottingham City Centre Hotel

Stylish Boutique Stay in Nottingham’s Lively Lace Market

Modern charm meets historic character at the Mercure Nottingham City Centre Hotel, a 4-star boutique property nestled in the heart of Nottingham’s buzzing Lace Market. Just a short walk from the Motorpoint Arena and Old Market Square, this hotel blends contemporary design with 19th-century architecture. With rooms equipped with Amazon Alexa for voice-activated convenience, free high-speed WiFi, and a well-equipped fitness center, it’s a smart and stylish stay for music lovers.

Why Concert-goers love it

You’re just steps from some of Nottingham’s biggest live music destinations, including the National Ice Centre and Motorpoint Arena—less than five minutes on foot. Despite the central location, guests report surprisingly quiet rooms, great for recharging after a show. The hotel’s 24-hour room service and Alexa-enabled rooms make post-concert wind-downs easy. Plus, the 15:00 check-in and 11:00 check-out times offer flexibility for those arriving in the afternoon or sleeping in after a late night.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends heading to a gig together, thanks to the lively location near bars and eateries
• Solo travelers wanting tech-friendly rooms and a safe, central base
• Couples making a weekend of it, with romantic city views and boutique flair
• Fans needing quiet time post-show—rooms are soundproofed and cozy
• Budget-conscious fans who want great value without compromising on style

Food and Drink Options

There’s no need to venture far for a bite—Mercure’s on-site brasserie serves up hearty local fare, and breakfast is available for those who need a slow start after a late night. The 24-hour room service is a big plus for late-night cravings, and the hotel is surrounded by walkable pubs, cafes, and restaurants.

Nightlife Options

Located in the center of Nottingham’s nightlife scene, you’ll find bars, clubs, and live music venues all within walking distance. Prefer to stay in? The hotel’s bar is a popular local spot, offering a relaxed vibe and a good selection of drinks, including local craft options.
