were staying in town centre premier inn goldsmith street  total for Fri till Tues was only £82 each two of us sharing twin room ,but booked it months ago taxi to and from DTD about £8/£10 stayed in centre last year and although have to comute out to DTD ,means that during day you are free to go anywhere in centre (pubs off course)

if staying out nearer to DTD would have to travel in to town most days anyway

Plumped for the Premier Inn Castle mumble although it cost me 50 sheets so I"d love to know where the 27 quid comes from...The Travellodge even had a noise warning on it"s own website lol.

Walkit.com reckons I can get from the Premier to DTD in about half an hour so I"ll do that if the weather"s nice but defo cab back.

Thanks for your hits and misses.

The Premier Inn in the city is £33 (Goldsmith St) is the one being referred to above. It"s different from the one in Castle Marina.

The Goldsmith St one doesn"t have its own parking and is further (i.e. higher cab fares) away from DTD.

If you want to be in the centre of town it (or the Travelodge) are "decent" choices for the money but I"d pack earplugs just in case but these things are usually exaggerated.

Sorry got it £29 a night £87 for 3 nights at Nottingham West 4.3 miles from DTD direct from Premier Inn website. may be a little bit more in taxi fares but considering the last time I went to DTD I had to fork out £105 a night at Holiday Inn I was chuffed!

Yes that is the walk that makes that travelodge within walking distance.

But I know plenty of people who wouldn"t consider that far walking distance.

<< insert your own lazy poker players insult here >>


Chezger don"t do walking, but if we did.................


It would be black and shaped like a taxi.

i don"t know why everyone is waisting their money by staying in hotels as there are plenty of cheaper options i.e. hostels, i"ll be there from the wednesday till the following tuesday and the cheapest i could find for all 6 nights was the igloo backpackers hostel for £86, on average £14.33 per night. and it"s about 2-3 miles away from the casino.
