The Spotlight on Novotel Coventry

Modern Comfort Just Minutes from Ricoh Arena

Modern and family-friendly, Novotel Coventry is a well-equipped hotel located just 10 minutes from Coventry city centre and within walking distance of the Ricoh Arena. With spacious rooms, a relaxing garden area, and an on-site restaurant, it's a convenient and comfortable base for music lovers heading to a big gig.

Why Concert-goers love it

Staying at Novotel Coventry means you're just a short walk from one of the Midlands' top live music venues. The hotel’s easy access to the M6 and public transport makes late-night returns from concerts hassle-free. There's also 24-hour room service and free Wi-Fi to keep the post-show vibes going. Plus, with flexible Sunday late check-out for families (subject to availability), you won’t feel rushed the morning after a big night.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends will appreciate the spacious rooms and lounge areas perfect for pre-show hangouts. Solo travelers heading to a must-see performance will find it safe and welcoming. Couples can enjoy a relaxing weekend escape with on-site dining and leafy grounds. For those who want a quieter place to recharge after a loud show, the hotel’s peaceful setting is ideal. And if you’re watching your wallet, this is a great-value option without sacrificing comfort.

Food and Drink Options

The on-site Elements restaurant serves up traditional dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. For late-night cravings, there’s 24-hour room service. Breakfast is available after a late gig, and the kids’ menu makes it family-friendly. If you're looking to venture out, there are also nearby eateries just a short drive away.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, its proximity to the Ricoh Arena means nightlife is right on your doorstep. After the show, return to the hotel’s relaxed bar for a nightcap or hop in a cab to explore Coventry’s late-night scene.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the friendly staff, clean and spacious rooms, and convenient location near the motorway and Ricoh Arena. Families love the kids’ play area and extras like the Xbox console, while couples highlight the peaceful atmosphere.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the decor is a little dated in parts, and depending on when you visit, the restaurant can get busy before events. However, most agree the hotel offers great value for the price and location.

The Bottom Line

If you're heading to a show at Ricoh Arena, Novotel Coventry is a smart, stress-free choice with comfort, convenience, and concert-friendly perks.

One time visit only thanks

Liked: Staff in reception friendly as was bar staff and we was able to mix with others from our party till well into the early hrs in the bar and pool table.Room serviced for our 2nd nights stay and bed had fresh linnen.
Disliked: Shower had black mould in it and was not nice to use. Needed a good scrub after every visiter has left. The walls in the room had tea stains up them in a couple of places so wasnt impressed with the overall cleanliness when it came to deep cleaning between guests.Breakfast was £29 for the 2 of us and was disgusting. Hardly any thing there and what was there was cold. Low cost budget fruit juces was witnessed being topped up after the cheff complained to the only member of staff in the dinningroom. Apartfrom in reception we only saw 6 staff in the 2nights we stayed, they were polite but not attentive in any way.On our arrivel at night the front entrance looked very inviting all light with spots, however in daylight the grounds was very untidy with weeds everywhere and ciggerette butts.Wont be staying there again im affrade.

Superb, dog friendly hotel.

Liked: Comfy bed, had a great night's sleep! Breakfast was excellent, lots of choice and very tasty. It was good to have an area to eat breakfast with our dog. Our dog loved the large grassed area at the back of the hotel, much needed after a long car journey.

Restaurant closed- no food options....

Disliked: Check in was from 3pm. Arrived at 5pm and our room still wasn't available to check in for nearly another hour.The restaurant in the hotel was SHUT due to lack of staff, so we have NO FOOD OPTIONS on a Sunday evening- the precise reason we picked the hotel to have a stopover to break up a long drive to have a rest and refuel ourselves. One member of our party has mobility issues. Staff didn't help with getting any deliveries so had to drive around Coventry on a Sunday evening with hardly anything open. Ended up having a sandwich as most things closed.Exhausted. The opposite to a restpite.
