Cathedral Quarter Hotel Derby

First I turned up, waited 10/15mins for a staff member to turn up, got given a key, and when I went into my room, it was a mess. Towels on the floor, bedding used etc. It had not been cleaned. Mistakes happen, so I went back down, and after waiting 30mins, got given a new room. My issues: There's a desk but no chairs, so you can't sit at the desk. The hotel states the room comes with "iron/ironing board and laptop workspace" No hair dryer No iron (when I asked for one, after an hour wait, I was given one so heavily stained, I wouldn't use it to iron my white shirt) Insufficient lighting. My room has no ceiling lights and one wall light near the door, nothing near the desk or bed. No parking (had to park on a side road) Bed was like a concrete slab Wifi barely works, drops out, struggles with basic websites (the hotel states the room comes with complimentary "100+ Mbps" wifi speeds. Definitely getting no where near that. Incredibly noisy surrounding rooms and corridor.

Clean, accessible and close to local amenities.

Derby Delight. A fabulous build converted in to a great hotel located in the historic Catherdral quarter. We had a junior double at the back for one night. Super quiet comfy bed and fab shower and bath. Definitely recommend. Located near some great old historic pubs,art galleries the amazing Museum of Making and the Cathedral.

Lovely stay , beautiful building . Staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very nice . Would highly recommend

Stayed valentines night. We had been looking forward to a night away. Book a table at the hotel for dinner so all sorted.......so, on arrival booked in. Young girl on the desk trying to do her best. ( we all started somewhere) she gave we a key. Normal key. OK old but ok. We went up to our room for that we had for the night. Initial thoughts opening the door, ok again then we walk in and wow. Floor boards. You could not walk anywhere with floor boards squeaking. ( we could here above walking around too) Old building we thought. But it did wake us up when someone above went to the loo in the middle of the night. Restaurant. OMG. Bareing in mind this is valentines night. Only half the tables where out massive space on one side. One couple in the restaurant we thought this will be heaven or hell. Well the waiter walked off as we walked in. Not a good start. We seated ourselves. He eventually came over with two menus. Al a cart and a valentines set meal. He asked for our drinks order went off again. We chose the al a cart. Waiter then came back without drinks and informed us the the chef has said no al a cart tonight. He continued to say it was the valentines menu or the steak night. My mood lightened. I am a steak lover. What's the stack I enquire. The waiter looks at me. What do you mean sir. He said. I went on to ask is it filet, rump, the waiter than gobsmacked me.....it's beef sir.... Was his response. My wife at this point was quite flabbergasted. We both stood up and left. And of course valentines night everywhere was booked up so we ended up having KFC in our room. Not the best valentines night. I was not happy.

Great overnighter Lovely room nice full breakfast and nice complimentary bits in the toom
