We stayed on a Saturday evening in between hiking and a car show. The hotel was easy to find being above the bus garage and opposite the Westfield Centre where the parking is most accessible. Check in was efficient though the sun was pouring through the glass frontage into the lobby making it uncomfortable for guests and I`m sure unbearable... More

We stayed here for a night oyt with some friends, we do like to have a decent hotel to stay in with breakfast. I can only say to sum up the rooms are very good but everything else is a big let down. The check in was a joke, no proffessionalism at all. Took about 10 mins to check in,... More

I stay at this hotel on a monthly basis with work, and have always found the staff to be amazing. Couple this with the fantastic location and good value restaurant, there really is very little to complain about. The only problem I have with this hotel, is that there is no Guaranteed benefit to being a Platinum priority club member.... More

Check in was quick and easy, you have to enquire about the car park reduction though as they don't go out of their way to inform you about it. Clean and comfortable as you would expect for the price, however i was a bit disappointed that despite the hotel name being 'Riverlights' the view from my room was of a... More

I stayed here whilst visiting Derby for a friends birthday and stayed in the room with my boyfriend. This is definitely one of the more modern Holiday Inn's that I have seen (in this country anyway!) and it is in a great location being next door to the nice Westfield shopping center and you don't need to find a taxi...

Dear Guest Thank you for your wonderful review. I am glad that you appreciated all that we have to offer. Unfortunately you made reference to a pool, but that is only thing which we do not have. We do have a mini gym onsite though. We hope to welcome you back to the hotel again. Kind Regards Carrie-Louise Holleran More

I was staying here with work. The rate work got for me included parking at the westfield shopping centre. I parked in the basement and walked across. I have stayed at the Midland, Jurys and Holiday Inn Pride park and this hotel is way better than those. The hotel has a fantastic location, extremely close to the centre. You can... More

Hotel is very new and comfortable. A plus point is that it is right in the city centre and just across the road from Westfields shopping centre. Free (fast) internet too. Two things that weren't not very nice though: (1) No on-site car park but free parking in Westfield which is about 3 mins walk away. Unloading luggage is a... More

Dear Guest Thank you for your review. It is great to hear that we looked after your husband during his long stay with us; we try to give our guests a 'home away from home' feel whilst they are staying at the hotel for long periods.
