About Premier Inn East Midlands Airport
Premier Inn East Midlands Airport suits travellers who need a straightforward, no-fuss base before or after a flight, or anyone breaking a motorway journey with easy access to the M1. It's less than a mile from the terminal at Castle Donington, making it a sensible choice for early departures or late arrivals when getting to bed quickly matters more than exploring the area.
The hotel has 80 rooms across three floors, all with en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning, plus accessible rooms for those who need them. A restaurant and bar are on site for an evening meal or a drink before an early night, and breakfast is available to set travellers up for their journey. Reception operates around the clock, which helps with odd flight times, and a lift serves all floors. On-site parking is available, though it comes at an extra cost.
Beyond the airport run, the surrounding area has a golf course, pubs, restaurants and other eateries nearby for anyone with time to spare before check-in or after landing. This is a hotel built around convenience rather than character, and it does that job well for short, practical stays.
Guests mention this hotel offers clean, comfortable, and well-equipped rooms, including accessible options and Premier Plus rooms with rainfall showers and runway views. They also highlight the friendly and helpful staff, delicious food, and convenient location for airport access.
Some reviews mention the food can be overpriced.
