Search Draycott in the Clay hotels

"We stayed at this Radisson again as we attend the Donington race meetings. The hotel is fine, price reasonable, but the £15 charge to park your car overnight is steep - and obviously aimed at those going on holiday from East Midlands airport. Frustrating as we are just parking overnight as we attend two days at Donington Park circuit. We use the lobby bar, but we don't use the Runway restaurant anymore (we go into Castle Donington). Hotel rooms are ok, but the 'hum' droning noise from the airconditioning or whatever it is in the bathroom is not welcome. It has been going on for a long time (we stay here maybe three times a year). So keep the toilet and bathroom doors shut. But the hotel is a handy location and does the job."

"Used the hotel prior to a trip to Donnington Park motor racing circuit (handily placed). Parking was a little tight in the narrow bays. Hotel was clean and bright. Room was clean and well presented. Bed was neat and fresh. Bathroom was dated but shower was good. Staff were friendly and very attentive (reception desk and restaurant). Decided to have evening meal in restaurant but regretted it, instantly. We ordered ‘crispy squid’ and chicken burger. The squid was barely warm and was just a greasy coating with a horrible rubbery filler. Tasteless. I had to decant my first mouthful into the supplied napkin. We sent the food back immediately and were told we could claim a refund at reception (processed without a fuss). Our next course, the chicken burger was, merely, edible. The accompanying fries tasted as though they had been cooked with our starter squid in old oil and then left to sit for a while before being served. Rock hard with minimal potato content. We ate the chicken and left everything else on the plate. £62.85, thank you very much. I have to say, I was embarrassed for our waiter, George H, who had to bring this from the kitchen and serve it to us. He was a very polite and nice chap. All said and done, I would use the hotel again, but would definitely eat elsewhere."

"All good. Bit of a ripe paying £5 for parking"

"Really disappointed with my stay for the price. Really poor room, breakfast was awful and had to pay extra for parking - which i was emailed about the night before my stay and price stated (£6) was incorrect. I paid £7.40 for parking for less than 20 hours. "

"Check in was easy. Staff friendly, pizza was dear. Breakfast had a good choice"

"clean room, staff couldn’t have been more friendly, only negatives was being woken up at 630 by the fire alarm but that wasn’t the hotels fault. lovely hotel. "

"The staff were fantastic, polite, friendly and helpful, which the made it a brilliant stay. Dinner was good and very family friendly with food options for the kids. Breakfast was the only let-down, scrambled eggs were cold and tasted awful, not much choice of fruit. "

"Clean and nice quiet place to spend few days. The environment is good. Rooms are good as well. Only thing lacked is staffs aren’t that friendly. We need to go in search of them than get assistance needed. They don’t even pay attention. "

"I have stayed here many times while visiting family in Derby. It is always clean and well maintained. The staff are friendly and professional."
