Reasonably priced stay near the airport.
It is unlikely you will arrive on foot. Plenty of parking spaces but charged an extra £5/night.
Room had everything you need.
Avoid the £8 per person breakfast box.

its a basic hotel but room was clean and everything worked as required. Ample parking and very basic breakfast box provided.
Staff helpful and polite.
No air con so staying during very warm days is not comfortable.

Stephen
No breakfast included, no air conditioning in the room, fan broken in the bathroom and Hotel on a duel carriage way noise from the traffic was really bad could not open the window had to pay for parking and hotel in a services
Julie
Excellent budget stay. Everything we needed, very nice spacious room with a bath and plenty of room to store our things. Very comfortable bed. Fan supplied and we were able to sleep during a heatwave. Friendly and helpful staff. Parking was easy and secure for a minimal extra charge. We didn't bother with breakfast, but I believe it is a grab and go option. There are other options next door too.
Jorge
I booked a hotel and realised within five minutes that I needed to cancel the reservation. I contacted the hotel and Expedia customer service immediately, hoping the cancellation could be accommodated given how quickly I acted. Unfortunately, there was no understanding or flexibility shown, and my request for a refund was refused. A bit disappointing.
David
No restaurant and very noisy right next to a50
Daniel
It was a short stay
Stewart
Good stay, tho no air con in the rooms so was rather warm on a hot day/ night the hotel did provide fans tho, parking £5 also
Paul
Parking safe.
Anna
It is a basic hotel but for the price it was all I needed. The staff were brilliant and the room quiet and clean and it’s all I needed. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they have a small hot food menu, plus there is food available next door at the services.
Lawrence
Exactly what you get for the price, basic, clean, servers the purpose

Matthew
Considering how cheap this was, the room was surprisingly good. The mattress was super comfy. Had a bath. Decor was dated, but super clean, with toiletries included
Shout out to the receptionist Toby who was amazing when helping us out, seeing as i somehow ended up booking for a different not by accident. He was a man on a mission to help us, and help us he did. Thanks again mate 👍

Michelle
Great location. Friendly staff
Simon
Nice clean room, friendly staff everything I needed for a nights stay
andrew
Room was average, 2 single beds bit of a mistake on my part I guess! It was very noisy from traffic outside and windows were draughty and poor. Staff were fine and I do begrudge paying a hotel to park my car there when obviously you need one to be there!
sammy
Friendly staff, comfy bed.
Karl
The room was old and in dire need of a revamp/upgrade! Laminated tops were peeling, ceiling had quite a lot of cobwebs throughout the room. Toilet seat wasn’t secure, bedside light was faulty and flickered like crazy so I had to unscrew the bulb. The TV was tiny in the corner of the room. The Wi-Fi was very poor, constantly dropping in and out. Old shower curtain that wants to give you a full body hug when your showering is a pain in the backside! When are hotel chains going to get rid of them. Finally, I had to pay £5 per night for parking because I booked my room through Hotels.com. Told if I had booked directly through Days Inn it would have been free. Considering the car park was huge and at a service station on the A50 this just seemed like a money grab to me! Won’t be using this hotel ever again.
Ivana
Clean & spacious room.Reception staff very friendly and helpful. We had a good night sleep since it was quiet and no noisy guests.Very good value for price
Arron
Was a short notice trip, service staff on front desk were helpful and friendly
Carolyn
Car park fee isn’t mentioned, neither is the fact the breakfast is breakfast in a box. I specifically booked for the breakfast. Room was sufficient and in an ok location. Book in staff member was a bit unfriendly.
Nick
The £14 charged was a joke for a mediocre breakfast - not enough nourishment
haydn
Clean tidy room with tea coffee and kettle also had a bath which is a bonus staff was friendly and accommodating to me being disabled and moved down to ground floor
Ryan
Jude was extremely friendly and helpful. She answered all my questions and really made our stay better
christine
The staff were very nice.
Daryll

Mike
Days inn donnington is the only days inn I've stayed inn and was very surprised how welcomingstaff are also the rooms are probably better than most rated hotels I actually think days inn is better never really had problems staying just in summer roomswas very hot but this stay the bathroom wasn't clean tea stain on sink and dust amd hairs in bath which ive never had this 9ssue before but other than that lovely stay
GEORGE
A 1 night stay,a tired rest area and a tired hotel. Noise from the road but still slept OK. Very basic room,but just about ok for £48 including the £5 parking charge. Greggs are next door and they were great for a breakfast.
Kayleigh
Room was comfy enough. Only downfall paid extra for breakfast to be served a to go box which was no use as i have a dairy intolerance and i paid more than what you would be charged for the box. Everytime a toilet was flushed the pipes made an awful noise and the sink started making bubbling noises
Mike
Room was fine jujst very little to choose for Food and Drink and consequently over priced. Get food before you arrive but ideal for a 1 night stopover
sophie
Parking charges… would not have booked if known … told “it would be in small print and I should have seen it ….” Inflexible not understanding. Stairs dirty but room clean Book direct to avoid parking charge
Douglas
Shabby place and overpriced
The breakfast was a cold box, definitely not worth the £5.95 charged
Susan
N/A We didn't require a breakfast on this stay. Our room was clean and comfortable as always and our request for a ground floor room was met as one of our party was unable to access stairs. Thankyou Days Inn for another relaxing stay 🙂

James

Great Hotel Amazing Staff
We have visited this property numerous times to attend the BTCC meeting at the nearby Donington Park circuit. Never had a problem but this time the receptionist tried to charge us extra for rooms that we had already paid for. Denise and Sian (both legends) sorted the problem out before we left to attend race day on Sunday.
Salman
Right next to service and petrol pump.
Andargachew
Great for a stay over for Alton Towers.
Rooms were clean and comfortable and there was a powerful shower. The rooms were very hot being on the motorway when windows were opened the noise of the cars was audible. Despite this we had a good stay and went on to Alton Towers which was very close by.
Tara
Bedsheets felt damp. Bed and pillows really uncomfortable, struggled to sleep
Mike
Lovely hotel for the price its really value for money ive stayed probably 20 times this year my only thing i can same i was let down by is the heat of the room when it was very hot outside which isnt helped so i wouldn't give a star less for something that couldn't be helped but the last couple times i stayed i was really offended but the receptionist was really rude didn't make me feel welcomed was really rude i asked for a fan she didnt look at me said no sorry so i said ok then next time she was acting rude shutbme down before i fishined which is really disappointing has the other staff are the loveliest people i don't think she full English with blonde hair i havenr been back since to be honest
Rob
Hotel chosen to visit family locally. It’s on a small service station. Hotel in reasonable condition and staff friendly enough.
After first day when coming back to room we found room not cleaned and learned afterwards cleaning is not done as default, you have to hang sign on door to request it. This is not obvious although hotel provided some posters around and QR code to access the list of services.
Our hotel room overlooked the adjacent petrol forecourt and service yard with skips. We were awoken several times by noise and announcements over a PA from petrol forecourt and also by a lorry coming to empty said skips.
Room has no aircon - just desk fan.
Hotel ok for quick stop over.

Unexpected fees that were not obvious on Hotels.co
Pleasant lady on check in, but we were hit with a £20 fee for our dog and £5 for parking. If these were made more obvious on Hotels.com we wouldnt have booked, because a more luxurious hotel would have been available for the total price.
Comfy bed though and very clean.

Greggs in the lobby
Room a bit tired and could do with a bit of decorating. I shared the room with a few cockroach/beetle-type critters, and the placement of the toilet under the wash basin was a bit bizarre, but those little irks, and the very hard mattress, was outweighed by having a Greggs in the lobby.
Frederick
Shower was great when i could get it working, a bit stiff to turn the handle
Giovanna
There was a fan and it helped but it wasn't enough. The room was just too hot to bear
Richard
Good
Mike

Just started staying with days inn which i wasnt aware of before i stayed but we have stayed around 10 times now just unknown parking fee and a blonle lady on reception with glasses shes has a accent was just so rude and unwelcoming anything i asked for or for information was limited everything i asled for was a no like ice i wasmt allto take to the room the rooms was so hot which was uncomfortable i asked for a fan she directly said no without looking which we had to lose myas we couldn't stay due to making us feel unwell due to heat other than her very suitable amd fair price
Susan
Excellent value.
Raymond
Derby trip
It was as I expected. Everything was fine I enjoyed my atay. Will go again
Mike
Very pleasant surprise about days in equivalent to other leading brands always welcomed polity the down side the hotel was tooo hot unbearable also the room wasnt enough space for all guests and just had to pick 3 moths from around the window which couldn't be helped but overall graat stay

A shame that you pay to park.

Very good experience, friendly/very helpful staff.

Good location, comfy beds. No plug sockets near any beds at all.
Extremely disappointed as Paid for breakfast for me and my daughter, only to find out they don't do a hot breakfast of any kind, which was not detailed before booking, definitely not worth the extra money for a cold breakfast which we didn't have. Will not be booking at this place again

Extra charge for parking. Really annoying as this is not made clear and used as a tool to get direct bookings.
First room Iwas shown stank of stale smoke.
Replacement room very good
Receptionist excellent

The hotel was passable, and if it wasn't for the staff it would be a negative review. Rooms needs updating, a TV bigger than a large laptop would be nice. Some suitcase stands would be nice. Some softer pillows are needed.
Convenient location, great staff, and clean are it strong points

The hotel itself was fair. We have stayed previously. However, we are a family of 5 (youngest is 4) and we had to pay for two rooms. It was stated when booking “two rooms for £45 per night” I took this to mean for the two together not per room per night so this doubled our expense. I did inquire if we needed the second room as my youngest would sleep in with us and there was a trundle bed in the one room that we could use for my other two children. We were told no. We didn’t use the second room at all, only to get some more milk and coffee as ours were not topped up. Other than that it was pretty surplus meaning we paid over £200 for a room we didn’t use. Not very impressed as with 3 children and a weekend away it is already expensive without needing to pay for another room that we simply did not need
Andrew
Good
Rachel
Had to pay £5 to park despite confirmation saying it was free. When i booked breakfast was not derailed as \"grab and go\". Hotel fine but listing misleading
Mick
Nice accomodation.
Another accomodation i chose to use when their prices fit my budget. More recently they have begun to charge for parking if you book outside of their website
Michael
Didn’t like parking charge
Paula
Checkin easy,staff friendly,room clean and comfortable, bathroom spacious and clean, staff helpful when we asked for extra tea and milk,overall definitely value for money
Sophie
Walls in our room were filthy, doesn’t affect stay but made it feel dirty. Other than that, everything else was perfect :)

No Smoking?
Hotel was tidy and clean enough.
Disappointed with the smell of unusual ‘tobacco’ smell despite there being signs regarding no-smoking in the building. Perhaps someone was too high or not bothered enough to care.

Didn’t expect to pay £5 per night for parking and the breakfast is a box
Malcolm
Possibly a bit bigger TV 😉
Slavomira
Nice hotel
Great hotel , all tidy and clean 👌
The cleaner lady we met was absolutely lovely and helpful :))) (wish every hotel got one like this :) ) ,
Unfortunately you have to pay for parking even though you paid for hotel already so ..... will consider to coming again .

Lovely stay
My family and I had a lovely stay, the motorway is slightly noisy at night so ear plugs may be needed.
Beds were comfortable and the pizzas were amazing!
The only downside is that we didn’t know about the £5 per night parking charge.
For visiting Alton towers this hotel was perfect for us :)

Room was clean and comfortable
James
Hit and miss
Very disappointed there was no breakfast option as shown in the photographs even though I'd paid for it in advance. The only option was a to go to bag which I refused.

Neville

Parking charges
Shocked to hear i had to pay £5 cash for parking. Wont hurry to book again
Robert
Charging for parking at a motorway service station hotel is not acceptable in my opinion. Also were unable to give me a VAT receipt for the parking charge.
Allen
Unfortunately we had someone in the room above, who was very noisy. We needed to be up early so had very little sleep.
Shahleen
The lady on reception charged me whilst I was there despites me showing her the booking confirmation/payment - she took my details said she will get a manager to call back the following day which didn’t occur, can’t get through the reception appalling service & attitude from staff
Chris
Pleasant stay
Our stay here was good, very clean, very friendly lady on reception and very helpful. My only issues were no plug sockets by the bed and you could only turn bedside lights off on one side. My husband wanted one side for his heated blanket but had to have cable lying across floor to reach nearest socket which meant I had to sleep on the other side where there was no switch for the light so if I needed the loo in the night I had to use my phone torch to get to the other side of the bed so I could turn the light on lol. Anyway I would stay again, overall it’s a lovely hotel
Morris
£35 room, can’t expect much at that price.
