Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Dancenter East Midlands Airport, formerly known as Aston Court Hotel (note that the signage may reflect the previous name), is frequently chosen for its convenient location across from Derby Train Station. Guests often appreciate the spacious rooms, some of which feature amenities like mini-fridges and large TVs; plus, the comfortable beds and deep baths are often mentioned as highlights. While some guests have noted the building's condition could be improved, the presence of leisure facilities like a pool table and dart board can enhance the stay, and the easy access to nearby bars, shops and takeaways adds to the overall convenience.
