Donington Manor Hotel - A historic 18th-century coaching inn with individually styled rooms and AA Rosette-awarded dining

Originally built as a coaching inn in the 18th century, Donington Manor Hotel retains original features like horse steps, service bells, and fireplaces across its Grade II listed building. The hotel offers 32 uniquely designed rooms, some with four-poster beds, garden views, or historic architectural details. The Sage Restaurant serves seasonal dishes prepared by AA Rosette-winning chefs in a dining room with dramatic sash windows, ornate ceilings, and chandeliers. Private event spaces include the oak-paneled Gun Room and the grand Rawdon Room, which holds up to 118 guests. Donington Manor Hotel provides free Wi-Fi in meeting rooms with garden views and is located 4.8 km from East Midlands Airport and Donington Park Circuit.

Pros

The Sage Restaurant features original Grade II listed architectural details and AA Rosette-awarded cuisine.

Multiple private event spaces, including a historic oak-paneled room and a grand hall for up to 118 guests.

Hotel's location provides easy access to East Midlands Airport (4.8 km) and Donington Park Circuit.

Varied room styles, with some featuring four-poster beds or garden views.

Cons

Limited dining options outside scheduled meal services (single restaurant on-site).

“What stands out is the dedication of the staff, consistently mentioned for their friendliness and willingness to assist, creating a welcoming atmosphere. While some areas show their age, the spacious rooms and convenient location near the airport and local attractions make it a practical choice. It's a place where the human touch elevates the experience beyond the purely physical.”
