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.

For the price we paid...

Liked: Nice size room and bed, comfortable enough. Good showering facilities. Staff were friendly and helpful.
Disliked: The fridge in the room had an awful smell. The floors and walls throughout the hotel were dirty and stained, due a freshen up.

Good

Liked: The room was very modern and clean.
Disliked: It was let down only because the fridge or the air conditioning didn't work. We were offered free drinks at the bar which was of no use as we don't drink.

Staff

Liked: Upon arriving for check in at 9pm no staff was present at the front desk. Standing waiting with 3 children to check in, I eventually had to walk to the bar and ask them how I could check in. The bar staff came down to check us in. She told us no information about breakfast times, wifi etc. at this point the other staff approached front desk and attended to Simeon else and we were told by the bar staff we had to pay for parking as we paid via booking.com but then when my husband went to move the car the other staff member said no as we were staying overnight we didn’t have to pay for parking. When getting into our room we had no sugar, teabags, tissues in the bathroom.I approached Lilly at the front desk the next morning and was asked to email about the situation but to be honest I would expect it to have been dealt with it then not for me to send an email. Disappointed to say the least considering we paid £130 just to sleep!
Disliked: Service.
