I stopped at the Aston Court Hotel this weekend and, I must say, for the most part, it is a fantastic base for exploring the area! I literally only used it to sleep and then was out relatively early both mornings - for which it was perfect, especially considering it's location right opposite Derby train station. The rooms themselves are... More

Booked this hotel with an Amazon Local Voucher and from the moment we entered the Hotel until the time we left we were made to feel very welcome.

Great hotel helpful staff, rooms not over large but comfortable and clean. Large secure gated car park at rear of the hotel. Food very good, and despite staff level problems they continued to give us fantastic service. We stayed as part of an Amozon week end deal only £69 for 2 nights with full English breakfast. What a deal Thank... More

I have now been back to this Hotel in Derby about 5 times and each one brings a new and interesting experience. I went here originally because the hotel over the road "The Midland Hotel" ( now called the Hallmark ) did not do well regarding the meals. What a difference it was.
