During my training at East Midlands airport I stayed at this hotel for a period of 3 months. I was first attracted to this hotel due to its location and short drive from the airport but over my time that I stayed there it became a second home for me.
The hotel has lots to offer. It has a large relaxing bar to sit in, swimming pool, a gym, which although small has most of the machines you would expect to find in a larger gym. The rooms are also very comfortable, with a decent sized double bed, television, tea making facilities and a safe too. The rooms are quiet, which was important for me since most of my time was spent studying in my room. I also slept well since you cannot hear the traffic outside and the bed was comfortable to sleep on. The rooms are also kept very clean. Infact the whole hotel is clean and well maintained. I never had any problems for the 3 months I stayed there with the facilities on offer. The shower was good too, just the right temperature and power which is important when I had to get up at 4am most mornings!
In terms of location the hotel is close to East Midlands airport. It is about a 5 minute drive away, plus you do not need to use the motorway to get there so there was no problem with rush hour traffic. I wanted a place that wasn't on the airport since I have lived on enough airports over the last 2 years! Kegworth itself has a few pubs which you wouldn't find if u stayed at a hotel at the airport so for me it was nice get away from the airport environment. The hotel has a large car park too which I felt safe to leave my car in during my 3 month stay.
But for me the best thing about my stay here is how friendly all the staff were, from the first moment I arrived there to the day I left they looked after me very well. It was a pleasure to stay at this hotel and since I have to come back to East Midlands every 6 months to do my recurrent training I will always be coming back to this hotel. Thanks Stef, Kim, Kerry, Katie and the rest of the staff at the Whitehouse Hotel.
