Travelodge Nottingham Trowell M1

Poor quality rooms in need of modernisation.We booked a triple room. The chap at reception confirmed the room was ready for us when we checked in, but upon walking into the room it was setup as a regular room, so we had to switch to another room which was actually setup for 3 people.Then when we get in the room, there are not enough towels for 3 people.The bathroom smelled…the typical thing you find in cheap hotels where they don’t ever wash the shower curtain and it stinks of damp. The anti-slip stuff in the bathtub was yellow…like it hasn’t been properly cleaned in a long time…we kept out flip-flops on when showering…just in case. The bathroom also has no extractor fan, and as the room was on the ground floor at the services, the windows only opened a tiny amount….so no way to get fresh air in and humidity out.There are no plug sockets next to the bed to charge your phone! People have had mobile phones for 20+ years, yet this hotel hasn’t thought to put some sockets next to the bed when they last did a refurb.On the positive side the room was about £25 for a night, with a £14 supplement for a 3rd person.It’s a bit awkward to get to if you’re working in the local area, as you have to go back on yourself to get onto the northbound side of the motorway to get to the hotel.Overall, not impressed, and certainly not a 4-star hotel per the average reviews. I won’t be staying here again. I would rather pay a bit more for a premierInn.

Been staying at this hotel for a couple weeks now, lovely friendly staff! Any problems I had they helped and sorted it straight away, been in 3 rooms and all 3 was perfect especially the space with the shelf’s, tv great and can connect my stick into tv to watch tv, if you need WiFi they have WiFi, they have breakfast to go and the hotel is clean and the rooms when you walk in it smells of bleach and even at 5am the reception is cleaned, 20 a night for a dog, services is across the road with m and a and WHSmith and Greggs and Costa, vending machine in reception takes card or cash, parking available amazing hotel with the staff

I wouldn’t normally write a review but Megan on reception was so helpful, friendly and went above and beyond after the booking was incorrect and had the incorrect date on. Although this wasn’t an issue due to travelodge, she managed to get the booking changed to the correct day and made a stressful experience due to customer error much less stressful. Really a credit to the company and she deserves a mention.

We had a room for the night staff were friendly. Room was comfortable and clean. It was 30 pound for the three of us so you get what you pay for. Only grumble was lack of air it was 22c on this day and felt like a furnace at 11pm, there no air con but its a cheap room so to expected. Other than that beds were tidy and we had a good night's sleep once temperature dropped.

A group of us ate in the connected pub and enjoyed reasonable food and service (even though the different deals we were entitled to caused a little confusion). Excellent breakfast. Ticked all the boxes for a good night’s sleep in preparation for a hockey tournament for a bunch of teenage boys and their parents.

Very comfortable room, clean and tidy, with plenty of towels. Comfy bed and effective radiator. I was on the motorway side but the sound insulation was brilliant and hardly heard a thing. One snag was an absence of loo roll on the day (apparently a supply issue!) But otherwise great value for money.

Works booked me this for a night away, wish they didn’t bother would’ve rather stayed in the van and slept upright!! Lots of hair in the bathroom and bath clogging drain. Bath surface peeling/dirty, almost certain there’s spunk on the footer of the bed, no aircon, no plugs near the beds (but that’s not the end of the world). Very dated and not a patch on a standard premier inn, Won’t be staying again!!

Travelodge are the same format wherever you go. It's the location which makes the visit. The Travelodge at Trowell is there in conjunction with the MOTORWAY Services for travellers who require comfort stops, food drink etc.
