Question FAO Nottingham people

Need somewhere to stay near ruddington. It's only to get my head down.

Stayed at EM Airport Travel Lodge on Tuesday, horrible. Does anyone know what the Premier Travel Inn is like on the A60(Millers Pub/Restaurant). If crap can you recommend anywhere reasonable.

Found Ruddington Country Cottage hotel but an "a la carte" menu is not what I'm after

There are a million and one places to stay in the city centre...alternatively you could just go out on the ****. There's always a grottbag at the end of the night that will give you a bed to stay in

I know there's a really nice hotel just off the M1/A46 junction that we did the pool for called Yew Lodge. You could try that...it's in kegworth. Or there are plenty of little B&B's in west bridgford

Last time I was there I stayed in the icehouse, the apartment block right next to the ice skating place in town. Depends what you looking for but is a nice place with under building secure parking and there is a takeaway delivery menu in the apartment if yo don't fancy venturing outside.

Not to worry you Tidgy but a group of us went there last Sunday ( for the Sunday roast ) and it was very average to say the least ! Hope it was a one of as the hotel and spa looked great. I want to try Dakota ( the place David Coulthard part owns ) out near jct 27 M1 heard that is really nice but a bit pricey.

Nope I havent, there is the Toby on priory island thats normally good but can get busy because you can't book ! Go and try Belfery, although it a new hotel it was bought buy a chain a couple of weeks back so it might have just been change over hick-ups, we went there on good words so we could have just been unlucky.
