Nottingham
Not many British cities have had Disney films set in their surrounds, but Nottingham is one, thanks to its proximity to Sherwood Forest and the enduring folklore tale of Robin Hood. But this East Midlands city is not just worth visiting for its men in tights: Nottingham is a vibrant university city with a popular live music and nightlife scene, plus a variety of culture and shopping options. If you’re seeking out hotels in Nottingham city centre, you’ll find a warm welcome and excellent location in Leonardo Hotel Nottingham.
Get your bearings
Perhaps the best way to get a sense of the city, and of where its history and legends meet, is on a guided tour. Ezekial Bone’s character-led tours are some of Nottingham’s most popular, and you can select from different themes such as ‘Nottingham in a Nutshell’ or the ‘Robin Hood Town Tour’ to make sure you get a fuller picture of these parts of the city. For those with a stronger stomach, the ‘Guts and Gore Tour’ will reveal Victorian Nottingham’s darker side.
Don’t miss
When it comes to shopping, Nottingham has it all, from big-name brands at the Intu Victoria Centre to independent shops and boutiques in trendy Hockley. That’s also where you’ll find Rough Trade, the city’s legendary music shop which hosts regular in-store gigs. Elsewhere, just a ten-minute walk from Leonardo Hotel Nottingham, there’s world-class art on show at Nottingham Contemporary, a free gallery promoting international, modern art.
While you’re there
Known for live music venues like Rock City, The Bodega and Rescue Rooms, Nottingham’s nightlife has a packed line-up whatever your preferred genre. The city also has a thriving LGBTQ+ scene, as well as bars and restaurants of all varieties. The city is even home to what claims to be the oldest pub in Britain, Ye Olde Trip To Jerusalem, said to have been established in 1189. It’s located below Nottingham Castle at the edge of Castle Rock, so whatever its age it’s certainly surrounded by history.
