Holiday Inn South Normanton M1, Jct.28 By Ihg

“Really nice stay”

We had a lovely stay here. The service was excellent, the gym well equipped and quiet and the room was lovely. Loads of free parking even with a bike rack on. The team really looked after us. Food was really nice with plenty od options and extras to order at breakfast as well as a full buffet.

“Reliable and welcoming hotel”

This is my 'home' hotel for business travel to my Head Office along the road. I always find the staff helpful friendly and welcoming. On this occasion I arrived with no reservation (an admin mix up somewhere between teams). The staff couldn't have been more helpful in getting me sorted.

“Ok hotel made good by fantastic staff”

As other reviews I can only agree with what others have said. The hotel is right on the M1 and is in an isolated spot but it is a good central hub to many places.

The hotel can look a bit tired in places and does need a touch up (for example the pool is closed) but as others have said what makes this place stand out is the staff. Everyone from reception, the morning staff, bar, restaurant even down to the housekeepers make this place a home from home. They are exceptional. Whomever is training these staff needs a big raise. I am often glad to leave hotels after business trips but these guys actively make me want to return. I hope I get the opportunity.

I was sent to the Holiday Inn as a late replacement for a colleague so hadn’t made the booking myself. The hotel itself is well situated right off the M1 and close to all local towns and hospitals although I got the impression parking is an issue as someone got a bit over zealous with building e chargers so now the car park is often overfilled so bear this in mind. The hotel rooms are lovely but the hotel itself needs a bit of a touch up. The pool for example is closed and lying idle and some of the halls do need a refresh in places. However what makes this place 5 star is the staff. Whomever is training these folks deserves a promotion. From the hotel reception, breakfast staff, bar, restaurant even the housekeepers everyone is friendly, chatty, extremely professional and go out of their way to help in any way they can. These business trips can feel a bind and lonely at times but this was a rare occasion where I was sad to leave. Would definitely return if I’m working back this way.
