Igloo Hybrid

Stayed here twice now and would come back again. The staff are always so lovely and friendly. Rooms are clean and beds are comfy. Not a 5 star luxury hotel but you get what you pay for. Great price for being right in the centre. Private rooms too which is a plus.

As father time is ushering us towards our graves with ever increasing haste, the missus declared she'd like to do at least one more festival, like what we did when we were young, before our bones crumble to dust entirely. So both being into the heavier end of the musical scale, we settled on Download at Donington Park for this (possibly) last hurrah. ||Naturally, as we're of a certain age, we no longer have the patience to spend the best part of a week in a tent, so we decided to get some affordable digs in Nottingham, preferably one with it's own bathroom, and use the airport express bus to get us torom the festival each day.||When searching online for somewhere to stay, Igloo popped up and I remembered the name from a previous visit up here for a combined gigootball weekend with some mates several years back. It's mainly a hostel and on that occasion we bunked together in a 3 berth room, but on closer inspection, it turned out that they now had a couple of fully contained rooms with en suite shower and toilet. Sited in central Nottingham and literally round the corner from the bus stop we required and with us due to be basically out all day every day for the entire weekend, that was just what we needed.||Check in was easy, guy on reception showed us to our room, which keys got us access to which doors etc. Room was a simple affair with a double bed, table and a couple chairs. Bathroom was practically new however and had clearly been renovated recently. Shower was a nice size and good flow too. ||Bed was firm but comfy. Maybe a little low for my taste, but I'm nitpicking here. We both slept like the dead after three 14hr days mostly on our feet.||Overall, it did the job perfectly. If you need somewhere to just get your head down for a couple of nights, then you could do a lot worse than the Igloo. No, it is not the Ritz and there's no room service or minibar, but it's clean, tidy and serves it's purpose well.

Igloo hybrid saved my heinie when I arrived at 1 in the morning. I had booked a bed in a shared dorm but it was too late to check in. The receptionist was exceptional and I was exceptionally lucky. I was able to get a private room and they put my original deposit towards the new booking! The linens were quite comfortable, but my mattress did sag a little. The bathrooms were impeccable though! And the lounge downstairs is spacious and cozy with lots of books and games to play. A different receptionist also was able to get my laundry done last minute before I had to check out which was exceedingly helpful. The staff here take it to the next level.

I booked a room for two days and had to extend my stay and it went so smooth. Staffs were very friendly. Such a cozy and clean place with cute paintings.💓

The room was spotless, and the staff were very friendly and informative. The kitchen area offers free tea, coffee, etc. Separate toilet and shower to room, which is super, and they do offer ensuite rooms. They provided a laundry bag for us to bag up our used bed linen and towels. They offer free luggage storage and are literally a stone throw away from the town centre. We will definitely be staying here again.

Only stayed for 1 night but the en suite room I had booked had everything I needed for this. It was clean, spacious and very central in the city for everything I wanted to do in the short time I had. It was quieter than I expected but I was there mid week. The staff I met were friendly and helpful. I didn't use all of the facilities available due to my short visit but from what I observed they seemed to cover most bases. Very satisfied customer and would definitely consider booking again.

Perfekt for a cheap stay in notts. The people working here are super nice, friendly and helpful. And the rooms are super clean, I can't recommend this place enough! It is super central too.

I stayed five nights at this lovely, quirky hostel right in the centre of Nottingham. The two women on reception were welcoming and very efficient. I had a small, single-use room with a single bed which included a chair, bedside table, small portable fan, small wall-mounted mirror and two hooks on which to hang clothes. One hanger was provided. It is styled as a ‘beach hut’- a really great idea! The bathroom and toilet were just outside the door and were exceptionally clean. Other bathrooms and toilets were readily available nearby. There is a kitchen/diner to the left of the small reception desk with plenty of fridge space, an electric cooker, kettle and a very comfy sitting room with sofas. Tea and coffee were free- a nice bonus. This is a very clean, good value, well maintained place. I think it is very well-managed: there are clear, well defined procedures for its smooth running, ensuring very good service and value for money. Highly recommended for experienced travellers with realistic expectations.
