LAWNS HOTEL WANTS £182 TO PARK FOR 2 HOURS AS THEIR CUSTOMER!!!
I was visiting Derby to meet up with some family members - and we had popped in to Lawns Hotel on 23rd August 2020 for a few drinks only. We were unaware of their parking restrictions in the car park and had assumed that they must have been for overnight guests as most pubs allow guests to park for a few hours without having to register or pay.
A month later - I received a parking charge notice from their parking management company. I am aware that the Hotel has the right to over-ride these as owners of the car park and wrote to

Great, clean room. Comfy bed. Large portions served in pub restaurant - beware!! Lol

Hope you like grey!! Grey walls, grey carpet, grey atmosphere. Still, they do serve a couple of nice beers and in a village now void of decent pubs this is probably the best of what's left... pack your rose-tinted glasses though, you might just need them.

Dog friendly all areas
Comfy double bed
Fantastic atmosphere and friendly welcome

Good price, excellent staff & service. Continental breakfast excellent and plenty of it. The room needs a refurb, panels coming off bath panel, hot water only luke warm for a shower. Hairdryer very old, very sticky & dirty so couldn't use.

We stayed here for a couple of nights whilst visiting Donington Race Track.

Great venue, and fantastic staff! We had our wedding reception here August 2021, using the restaurant area and The Boiler Room at the back for the full afternoon and evening. The staff at the hotel were absolutely brilliant both in build up to the wedding and on the day itself. They put a lot of effort in in advance to work with us to find a setup that would meet our needs, overcoming various challenges that we gave them along the way including last minute changes such as an increased number of people to accommodate in the restaurant (so changing the entire table layout again). On the day, the

The Hotel staff are lovely and the food is amazing! My hubby eats like a horse and was defeated by the fish and chips on the menu..or Whale and chips as he named it. The only poor points are that the walls in the rooms are very thin so you can hear everything that is going on next door as if they are in your room. Everything in the room was adequate and clean and there isn't anything you would need to enjoy your stay. Even if you forgot your vanity bag.
It would have got 5 stars if the walls were thicker. don't expect to get to sleep before 1 am but there is a bonus that breakfast is served until
