Leonardo Hotel Nottingham
Nice hotel near city centre, nearby parking is in train station multi story car park £8 weekends but it’s a 10 minute walk away from hotel. Hotel has bar, restaurant, rooms and bathrooms are spacious. Near to shops, bars and restaurants, Nottingham Castle is about 15-20 minute walk. Would stay again ...
