My wife and I stayed at the Thistle Hotel, and would definitely recommend. Main reason for booking was after a bad experience at the H****n. Needed one night’s accommodation and eight nights parking. I booked on line, and found a deal which included room, parking and a three course evening meal for two. From the instant we stepped into the... more

Not a 4* Hotel in my view. Rooms good size but furnishings, bathroom, lounge etc nothing special. Very expensive bar and restaurant. Breakfast adequate but for 4* you would normally expect a buffet breakfast but this wasn't. more

Stayed here for 1 night before going on holiday due to an early morning flight. Great location just on the right as you turn into the airport. We walked to the terminal building which took us about 5 minutes but they do run a courtesy bus as well which does need prebooking. The room was very spacious, we booked a... more

I stay at this hotel once a year on business. It's a perfect location for both the East Midlands airport and Castle Donington race circuit. I have always found the rooms excellent and the hotel staff friendly. It is an expensive hotel though for both food and accommodation. To be honest, if I was paying for this myself, I would... more

My boyfriend and I had a 9am flight to Sharm El Sheikh so wanted a well priced hotel with parking for the night before. After searching around the internet, Thistle East midlands airport seemed like our best deal! We payed £80 for the night, but this also included 15 nights of parking too. I don't really have a bad thing... more

We stayed here recently with friends and found the restaurant staff (especially the head waiter who I think is spainish) to have a very abrasive attitude to customers. We had previously booked a table in the restaurant - needless to say they had no record of the booking - and indeed made us feel like it was OUR fault for... more

Stayed here for one night on 1st December 2007. Check in was quick with no problems, reception staff friendly. We are a family of 4 and had a family room which was 2 double beds. This was £94 which included full English breakfast which unfortunately we couldn't have as we were leaving for the airport at 4am the next morning.... more

I stayed here whilst attending a business conference over a weekend, and needless to say I was not looking forward to spend my weekend in an airport / conference hotel. On arrival given a smoking room, but this was quickly remedied, albeit a twin room. The hotel manager delivered an afternoon tea to my room as an apology. From there... more

If you're flying out of East Midlands Airport you can hardly do better than stay at this very pleasant hotel and park your car for free for a couple of weeks. The staff, especially the night porter, were very friendly and attentive. Although the hotel has no lift, the same porter promptly carried our bags up to our room. The... more

We stayed at the hotel this weekend for a wedding and I can honestly say this is one of the nicest hotels I've ever stayed in. We were given a deluxe suite which housed a king size bed, a large desk, a table and 2 chairs by the window and a nice sized bathroom with a lovely shower and bath.... more
