Set your sights on the city from this quiet, convenient spot at the Premier Inn Hotel Nottingham Castle Marina. You're perfectly placed for the top tourist attractions as well as the many business HQs including Boots, HMRC and Experian. You can make a beeline for the historical highlights of Nottingham Castle and the City of Caves. Follow the bright lights of the city centre's many shops, bars, restaurants and clubs. Or take a quick flit to the University of Nottingham, Queens Medical Centre and Trent Bridge. Then, after a busy day, relax with a Beefeater meal, spacious rooms and extra-comfy beds.
This modern budget hotel by Nottingham Marina is 1.1 miles from Nottingham Castle and 1.2 miles from the City of Caves (a historic underground tunnel network), plus city centre shops.
Rooms range from singles and doubles to family rooms with 2 pull-out beds, where kids aged 15 and under eat and stay free with paying adults. In-room amenities feature free Wi-Fi and en suite bathrooms with showers, as well as tea and coffeemaking facilities, TVs and desks.
There's an adjacent Beefeater Grill restaurant, plus free on-site parking. Breakfast includes all-you-can-eat and light choices (an extra cost).
Bedrooms
All of our hotels have bedrooms designed for use by disabled persons. However, the dimensions and nature of the facilities available in these rooms may differ between hotels depending on factors such as the age, design and layout of the building.
The accessible bedrooms are mostly located close to Reception or a lift lobby. However, due to the design and layout of some buildings, this is not always the case.
All of our accessible bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms (see ‘Bathrooms’ section below for details of these).
The bedrooms are designed to allow wheelchair users adequate space to travel around the room and manoeuvre their wheelchair.
A clear space to allow transfer from a wheelchair to the bed is provided on one side of the bed. In some older hotels, which have smaller rooms, it has been necessary for us to replace the kingsize beds in the accessible bedrooms with standard double beds in order to create a suitable transfer space.
In newer hotels, and in existing hotels where space permits, we have provided 6ft ‘zip & link’ beds. These allow the room to be set up as either a double or twin room, thereby providing maximum flexibility for our guests.
The beds provided in our accessible bedrooms should be 480mm in height. This is in accordance with the standards recommended in British Standard 8300:2009 ‘Design of buildings and their approaches to meet the needs of disabled people – Code of Practice’. This height is recommended as it corresponds to the seat height of the majority of wheelchairs and, therefore, facilitates transfer between the wheelchair and the bed.
However, we appreciate that some guests may prefer a higher bed and, if given sufficient advance notice of this at the time of booking, we can arrange to have the bed raised.
Unfortunately, Premier Inn cannot provide mobile hoists. However, should a guest wish to bring their own mobile hoist we can arrange to have the bed raised to accommodate its use, if given sufficient advance notice of this at the time of booking.
All bedrooms are provided with a desk and chair. Where space permits a tub chair and small table are also provided. If during your stay you would like the bedroom furniture rearranged, or an item of furniture removed or provided, please contact Reception and we will do our utmost to assist.
Accessible storage facilities are provided in all bedrooms
The flooring in bedrooms is short pile carpet.
Televisions with a remote control are provided in all bedrooms. These televisions have the facility to display subtitles.
The entrance doors to accessible bedrooms are fitted with wide angle door viewers (spy holes) at both seated and standing levels.
All accessible bedrooms are provided with emergency assistance alarms.
Fire evacuation procedures are displayed on the back of the bedroom door. Guests are reminded to inform Reception if they would require any assistance in the event of a fire evacuation.
Bathrooms
All of our accessible bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, with wide entry doors for ease of access.
The dimensions of these bathrooms provide adequate turning space for a standard wheelchair.
The toilet in the bathroom is provided with grab rails.
The majority of our bathrooms are fitted with shallow baths, with the bath rim at the same height as the majority of wheelchair seats (480mm), and grab rails around the bath. These aid transfer from a wheelchair to the bath.
Wet room facilities are also available in some of the accessible bedrooms in our newer, and recently refurbished, hotels. These wet rooms have a level access shower rather than a shallow bath. If the use of a wet room is particularly important to you, we strongly recommend that you check availability with the hotel at the time of booking.
All accessible bathrooms are fitted with accessible sinks, with lever taps.
Soap is provided in soap dispensers.
All accessible bathrooms are provided with an emergency assistance pull cord.
Bathroom floors are of a non-slip material.
Bath mats are available from Reception upon request.

Read All ReviewsI booked 2 nights here and the best I could get was a disabled room including breakfast. The room was on the ground floor. I chose Premier Inn as they had a room with disabled facilities. Check-in was very straightforward, the disabled room has a lower bed than standard rooms and there are grab rails in the bathroom. I was expecting a walk in shower but the shower was over the bath, not much good if you are unable to climb in and out. I ate at the Beefeater next door which was handy, it is also where breakfast is served in the morning. I slept very well, breakfast was good and plentiful with very helpful and attentive staff. Great stay.
