Enjoy a quiet suburban stay in brand new lodge accommodation. If you’re looking for great hotels near Derby, the Blue Jay in picturesque Alvaston is perfect.

Perfect for families, we have a selection of 38 en-suite rooms and all sorts of fun to keep the kids occupied; they can take their pick of indoor and outdoor play areas, games and even their own menu. The grown-ups can relax, whilst the children are entertained. Sleep soundly in a kingsize Hypnos bed, on the Beaumont mattress, which is filled with a wool-silk mix and has a surface which regulates your body’s temperature.

Our delicious carvery sits alongside a variety of pub classics and consists of three meats, cooked to perfection, golden Yorkshire puds, stuffing, gravy and seasonal veg. If you have room for pudding, the choice is just as varied. Find a great wine selection, as well as a range of soft drinks and spirits. We boast an excellent selection of cask ales, from Marston’s five breweries.

You’re not far from some brilliant attractions when you stay at the Blue Jay. Explore a limestone gorge or catch a match at Derby Football Stadium. Take in the picturesque surroundings of Locko Park, or if you’re a thrill seeker, head to nearby Alton Towers.
