Pricey but does the job

Good Location - Does the Job.

I was attending a race meeting at Donington. I always stay in the Radisson now - last 3 years or so. It’s handy. Does the job. Before going I received an email informing me £8 per night parking, even though I was staying in the hotel and only parking for the night and would check out 7am. Check-in was fine. Friendly receptionist. Room was usual. Clean and comfy double bed. Just a shower. Stiff rotary control and fairly weak shower. Bar staff friendly. Restaurant staff also nice. Negative was the request for Caesar salad with no chicken came with chicken. Then the medium rare sirloin steak was served well done and was grissly. Small. Not a sirloin cut, I thought. It was possibly the worst steak I’ve ever been served at a restaurant. But the waitress and maitre ‘d were nice.
