Best Hotels in Nottingham
Nottingham is easy to move around, and each of its central areas has its own character. Here is how to choose between them.
The Lace Market for a quiet, characterful first meeting
The Lace Market's historic warehouses now hold some of the city's most distinctive hotels and bars. It is quiet, atmospheric and a short walk from the centre, which suits a first meeting that deserves a little more character.

West Bridgford for something calmer
Across the Trent, West Bridgford is calm, residential and well supplied with good restaurants. It suits two people who would rather step away from the city centre entirely, and it is a short taxi across the river.

What actually matters when choosing
Nottingham is small enough that every central hotel is a short taxi from the station, so the choice is really about the mood: the historic streets of the Lace Market for quiet, the busier area around the main square for convenience. Check the last trains if either of you is travelling home that night.
