The Gresham Aparthotel
Clean room, clean bathroom, nice room overall. Hardly got to enjoy it as I checked in quite late and left by 11am checkout. Would of liked the checkout to be a bit later.

Roomzzz Nottingham City
The hotel was really clean and tidy. Bed exceptionally comfortable. Just want other guests to be aware there's more affordable parking relatively close than Q-Park. Even with the hotel's 40% discount applied.
