The Spotlight on Novotel Nottingham Derby

Comfort and Convenience Near the Heart of Nottingham's Music Scene

Modern and relaxed, Novotel Nottingham Derby offers a peaceful retreat just outside the city buzz, perfectly positioned near the M1 at Junction 25. This hotel blends comfort with convenience, making it a smart choice for music fans looking to stay close to Nottingham’s top concert spots without the downtown noise. With spacious rooms, garden views, and friendly service, it’s an easy and affordable base for a music-filled getaway.

Why Concert-goers love it

Located just a short drive from major Nottingham music venues, this hotel is ideal for those who want quick and hassle-free access to gigs. The nearby motorway and public transport links make late-night returns smooth, and the 24-hour front desk means you’re always welcomed back, no matter how late the show runs. The vibe is chilled, and rooms are designed with comfort in mind—perfect for winding down after a loud night out.

Groups of friends sharing a concert weekend

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no 24/7 room service, the hotel does offer on-site dining and a relaxed bar area—perfect for an early dinner before heading out. Breakfast is available in the morning (even after a late night), and there are walkable eateries nearby in Long Eaton for more food variety.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself keeps things quiet, you’re just a short drive from Nottingham’s buzzing nightlife. Whether it’s post-show drinks or a full night out, you’ll find bars, clubs, and lounges within easy reach. Prefer something more low-key? The hotel bar offers a chill spot to sip a local beer and recap the night.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the friendly staff, clean rooms, and the hotel’s great location for both Nottingham and Derby events. Many note that the easy motorway access and free parking make it stress-free to get to venues. Reviewers also appreciate the value for money, especially for group stays.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the decor feels a bit dated in parts, and a few noted that the restaurant menu could use more variety. But for a concert-focused stay, these are minor trade-offs for the location and price.

The Bottom Line

A smart, no-fuss base with good transport links and quiet comfort—Novotel Nottingham Derby is a solid pick for concert-goers looking to enjoy the show and still get a good night’s sleep.

Great sleep, in a clean...

Liked: The inside of this hotel was lovely and clean with fresh friendly and welcoming staff, the shower in our room was amazing and I like the fact that the shower room and toilet are separated by a wall. Room facilities were good a menu would have been good as the QR didn’t work, but sheets were fresh and we had a great sleep,
Disliked: There are cobwebs above the front door that are not overly welcoming, there are cobwebs on the outside of every window which put me off opening the windows however the air con is amazing! There is no sign from the road so we drive straight past and ended up at an immigration hotel down the road. The QR code in our room didn’t work, the phone was in Spanish and there was no menus or how to contact reception, I used my mobile phone to ring down to reception. They were very short staffed and whilst the two member of staff did there very best the wait time for a drink at the bar was quite long and they didn’t have quite a few bits that were on the menu, which restricted the food choices, so we didn’t eat there.

Definitely would stay here again!!...

Liked: Really clean. Bedroom was a great size with everything you need in there.Best 2 nights sleep I've had in a hotel.The breakfast was fantastic with lots of choice.
Disliked: Perhaps the menu could have more 'homemade' items on it. I had the lasagne and it was very much a frozen microwave one without much flavour to it.But this was made up for by a fantastic choice you had at breakfast
