Just walk in across from the station
Aston Court is right next to the station so very convenient. Buzzer for night porter entry/check-in after 23.00 was straightforward (and needed by me as train waa very late, as many currently are). Generally good quality - some bathroom equipment bit fashion-tired, but everything worked well. Very good service at reception desk and at breakfast.

Aston Court Hotel
Aston Court Hotel was clean and a good base for one night in Derby. Single room was very small but adequate fir one night. Food facilities looked good although not used. Perfect location as across the road from Derby station.

Fireworks were being set off as I tried to.get to sleep so did not have a good night. Found the shower a little on the small side but it was all clean. Will use this hotel again - location is excellent for train travellers like myself. The receptionist very helpful in helping me locate an eatery where I could get what I wanted! Recommended.

Night away.
Straight forward stay. Checkin was straight forward with no issues. The room was of a very good standard and clean, the shower room was very dated with a sunken bath which looked like it was from to 70s. The hotel had its own parking, is next door to the train station and close to town. Our second time at this hotel and would defiantly stay again!!

I didn’t want to give this hotel 1 star as the staff were very nice but ants all over the room and roadworks literally outside my bedroom window at night made for a night I’d rather forget. The bathroom light was also faulty. I know the noise wasn’t the hotels fault but the sound proofing on windows is non existent and the ants really can’t be excused. Hopefully it’s a one off but I hope the management will look into this.

the first room they gave us had a dirty sink , dirty toilet , kettle leaked and no coat hangers , so reception changed my room but the second room was slightly better clean wise but double bed / 2 singles bed pushed together with no mattress topper on them just the sheet , was very u comfortable, i didn’t sleep hardly all weekend , there was noisy residents on the same floor shouting running early hours in the morning ,

Response from Emma on Jun 21, 2022
Hi Ayshea, I am sorry you entered into a room that had not yet been cleaned in error and that the receptionist quickly resolved this issue. Unfortunately it sound like you were then allocated a "Zip & Link" bed which can be used as either a double or twin room, I will look into why there was no mattress protector as we have recently started purchasng new ones. Also I can only apologize for the other guests being noisy as not all guests are considerate of others within the hotel.

Pleasant communal area and reception. Secure, beam activated gated parking is a bonus as is location to station and c10mins to the centre. Beds was very soft/gave way to easily on sitting and pillow too thin for me (others may like this). Needed open window for ventilation so, would have road noise in summer

Fine, but there is road noise
It was comfortable, it was clean. I just couldn't get on with the road noise, just a personal thing. I chose the hotel based on location but it's on a busy-ish road outside Derby Railway station. I'd possibly stay again if a room was available on the other side of the hotel.

Good morning, many thanks for your feedback we do always appreciate it. I am sorry about the road noise, we certainly would have changed your rooms if you had said. Next time you stay with us we will allocate you a room at the rear of the hotel. Hope to see you in the not too distant future. Jenny
