Disliked: Amenities
We had a sofa bed for our daughter in the room. It was so uncomfortable. You could feel every wire. We picked the hotel for electric charging. There were 2 charging bays which were not marked as electric charging bays and there were 2 petrol cars parked in them so couldn’t charge our car.
Overall the property was very clean and well maintained and the staff was kind and helpful. Be aware that the location and size of the “courtyard” shown in the booking images were misleading. The location was tucked away on a very, very small corner of the property. The spa was closed for renovations during our stay as well. The restaurant, Marco’s, was a big disappointment for anything outside of breakfast. Our meal order was mixed up, my partner’s steak was overcooked, both steaks were bland, and the side dish offerings were slim. I would definitely stay at the hotel again just know that there aren’t many dining options within walking distance.
Great hotel rooms and brilliant housekeeping.
Warm welcome and clean hotel.
Nice touch with the water cans in the room
This hotel is right next to the airport so I expected aircraft noise and there is lots of it so do be prepared.
It wasn’t clear that parking wasn’t included when booking so a bit of a shock to have to pay £8 a night.
Restaurant was a let down for friendliness, speed of service, accuracy and general efficiency. I dined for dinner and breakfast for 4 nights and experienced the same things each time.
This is a challenging review. We were really happy with the room and the breakfast (the service from the breakfast staff was impeccable and the food nice), however, after being out all day we returned at 10:30pm to discover the room had not be serviced. We understand oversights can happen, however, when we spoke to the front desk we received neither an apology nor an explanation and instead got a bit of gruff response and they asked us to wait 20 mins (given the hour and with a 3 year old we couldn’t wait that long). In the morning upon checking out, we raised it just as an aside and the lady at the desk was only concerned whether we raised it the night before, and when we said yes, she just said good - again no apology or explanation. It is disappointing as it really did detract from an otherwise great stay.

Friendly staff who upgraded this very weary traveler on checking in. Lift out of service, and was offered assist, but only had a small case and suit bag. Room excellent, comfortable, quiet. Didn’t have time for breakfast, but will most definitely have it next time. Great find, and convenient for the M1 south.
We were booked into this hotel at the last minute after our original hotel was suddenly cancelled on our arrival. The Duty manger at the Best Western Yew Tree Lodge, was kind and understanding and helped us with an earlier check-in so that we could get changed and ready for my daughters graduation ceremony, I don't know what we would have done otherwise. He helped to turn a bad situation into a good one. The hotel was much nicer than our original one with the bonus of a great restaurant and super friendly staff, thank you to everyone, we enjoyed our stay and would heartily recommend this hotel to anyone.
We were booked for an overnight stay to enable a early morning start in Nottingham. This hotel used to be a favourite but has now become to corporate.
£8 to park overnight for one night while a guest of the hotel is just a hidden charge that should be included in the room rate.
Reception staff and manager showed appalling service.
Redeeming factor was an excellent breakfast.
The hotel was nice if a little dated and the pool & spa facilities were OK. However, I only became aware that they charge £8 per day parking when arriving at Reception. When I was considering cancelling my booking because of it Reception waived the parking charge. Other than that my stay was fine. I would stay again if they dropped the parking charge. I personally think it is sly of a hotel to charge parking when it should be in with the price. Its like going to buy a car and the seller charging extra for the wheels!
