Ramada Encore Derby  

Location for my trip

Would not let me check in early. When I checked out (4am) they were runnign a computer backup and would not/could not interupt the computer run to give me my bill. While they did eventually their attitude was that of inconvenience to them vs service to me, I did tell them I would be checking out at 4am and they said they would be ok with it.

Modern design, excellent bathroom/shower. Overall style is clean and modern. Staff were very professional and friendly.

Facilities such as movies-on-demand came at an extra price, and the promotion of sky channels was misleading as the only sky channels that were included were Sky News, Russia today, e4 and CBeebies. These limitations were not made clear on the hotel's website. Food was also excessively expensive (a simple sandwich costed £5, although far below par to that of london's finest).

I was not happy as I walked in the hotel in my wedding dress and they gave us a twin room when I had booked a double I was to tired to do anything so me and my hustband slept in a single bed. The breakfast was very good value for money.

The hotel was clean and modern and was in an excellent location a few hundred yards from the train station and a 10 minute walk from the town centre. It also right next to pride park stadium for anyone going to the football. Would definitely use this hotel again.

The ramada was an excellent hotel very good value for the money I would recomend to anyway a bit of luxury at an affordable price

Price was right, excellent location for our needs. Shower was amazing

No kitchen service offered over new year period

Great weekend price for the quality of the accommodation. They also did a good deal on the breakfast whilst we were there. The buffet breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice.

We were very impressed with the standard of the hotel and really enjoyed our stay

Price and location

Not easy to find, was the only thing we found, could use more signage from main road

Very pleasant, friendly staff. Quiet location, no loud parties at night, comfortable bedrooms. Free parking right outside front door. Half price breakfast between certain hours.Good value for money hotel.

The hot food at breakfast wasn't so much hot as lukewarm - a pity because it tasted otherwise very good. The half price that we paid for it was reasonable enough, but for guests who couldn't be at breakfast within the stipulated hours it would have been a bit pricy at over £9.

The Ramada is a relatively new hotel, the staff are very helpful and room clean with a comfortable bed.

Not keen on a wood floor in the bedroom as it has a cold feel, especially as the heating is off/very low when you arrive. The bar and restaurant are located in the reception area with the main entrance locate here through lobby doors. However, the lobby dodrs are open at the same time when people enter and leave, which results in cold gusts of air entering the area at regular intervals.

Clean, good service, inexpensive except for beer price, parking.

Lack od drawers and cupboards.
