Airport Hotels
Staying in an airport hotel on the night before your departure date enables you to have a more relaxing start to your holiday - if you are travelling by car, no travel delays stuck in traffic or bad weather, so no pressure about missing your flight. It can also save money on parking, as hotel + parking often works out at only a few pounds more than a room alone, or sometimes the package works out cheaper than the parking charges alone. Ibis Coventry City Centre, Ibis Coventry South, The Glengary and Draycote Hotel are some of the airport hotels.
