Wonderful

The hotel receptionist was very welcoming, our room was immaculate and the facilities were perfect. We had a wonderful evening meal and a few drinks that was very reasonably priced. The breakfast the next morning was fantastic! It was a buffet and you had the choice of a full English (my personal favourite) or continental, along with gluten free options.
Two of the lamps in the room did not work, also the kettle would not stay switched on. The restaurant was very expensive so we found a lovely local pub..
On arrival, it was unfortunate we had to wait 10 -15 minutes for 3 staff to serve one guest in the VIP queue. Apart from that, the hotel stay was excellent. We would definitely return and hopefully, be treated like VIPs .
The parking situation is out of control. Yesterday was my third stay at this hotel, and each time is the same - vast car park with no free spaces. I spoke with the receptionist about it, and the impression I got was that they rent their guest spaces to pilots, cabin crew etc. They charge £6 per night for guests to park, which is pretty bad anyway, but to leave guests with nowhere to park is not acceptable. I met other disgruntled guests also scratching their heads in the car park, so I’m not alone in this view. Other than the parking the hotel is quite nice. Could do with some maintenance (rm 411) fridge didn’t work, the shower leaked and the bathroom was a bit grubby, but other than that the room was very comfortable. Surprisingly quiet too, given the airport proximity.
I was at Donington Park race circuit again. I always stay here at the Radisson. Car park was full - most are for the park and fly offers, I assume. Lots of parking for people on holiday. It is August, though!!
Check-in was ok and a clean room allocated.
Water pressure in the room was poor. Shower etc.
I didn’t eat at the hotel but used the bar, which is located to the side of the lobby, just outside the restaurant. Bar was good service but they won’t make an Old Fashioned. They don’t do ‘cocktails’.
Usual question - would I stay again? It’s a Yes. It’s fine.
