Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Tamworth
The nearest airport is East Midlands Airport (EMA), located approximately 32.5 km from Tamworth. As a primary regional airport, it offers the fastest and most budget-friendly transport options, including car rental and direct taxi services. In contrast, London-based airports like London Heathrow Airport (LHR), London Gatwick Airport (LGW), London Stansted Airport (STN), and London Luton Airport (LTN) are significantly further away, ranging from 123 km to 194 km. All London airports serve both domestic and international traffic. While trains provide the most efficient public transport for these long-distance journeys—typically through London hubs—they are more expensive than regional options. Travelers should note that while bus services are generally the cheapest public transport option, they involve significantly longer travel times and multiple transfers. For the best balance of time and budget when flying into London, consider taking the train from London Luton Airport (LTN) as it is the closest of the London hubs. For all journeys, booking train tickets in advance and utilizing railcards can help manage costs significantly.

Best Bits
The Castle is a lovely old fashioned hotel, perfectly positioned for shopping, river walks and IMHO, the best pub in Tamworth, The Old Bank House just across the road. It's also only about 6 minutes walk from the Jolly Sailor long stay car park where 24 hour parking costs only £2.
The man on the front desk was very helpful and showed us to our room. On finding out that we'd stayed at the hotel a few times before, he even offered to move us to to a room we'd stayed in previously.
We opted for the standard double room which had quite a comfortable bed and tea/coffee making facilities. There was also a large flat screen TV (not tried). Being at the back of the hotel meant that there was no noise from the road. The room overlooked a small inner courtyard which contained the fire escape stairs and at the correct angle you could just make out the crenellations of Tamworth Castle itself!
We didn't eat at the hotel this time but the next morning we spoke to other guests who raved over the fantastic cooked breakfasts so we'll probably try them next time we come.
Slight Downsides
The en-suite bathroom had a bath with shower over which was very effective once the hot water finally came through. This could be speeded up by turning on the hot water bath tap. A slight downside of the bathroom having a fan instead of natural ventilation was that it took ages for the steam to clear so washbag and contents got a bit damp.
There weren't any chairs in the room.FromUS$61

Hotel generally, but in order to enter the playground early the next morning, it is worth the room sheets are a bit cotton wool. The bed is uncomfortable. The bed is a bed for one person. It is a bit difficult to sleep with a child. The triple room is actually an extra bed. Instead, the extra bed is a big one. Add the child to sleep together. Micro can cope with the hotel near the convenience store. It is recommended to buy delicious and drinking water when you go. The hotel sells ordinary water for more than 2 pounds. It is not worth the location. It is remote and there is a restaurant. We brought our own noodles and cooked in the room! It takes about 20 pounds and 15 minutes to call Uber from Birmingham International. By the way, tickets for the park will be discounted online in advance and you can enter the park at 10 o'clock in advance (open at 10:30). When we went, there were not many people. For more than 2 hours, we played all the facilities in the children's area. The roller coaster children brushed it three times. It was worth the fare.FromUS$158

Room is basic but that's all that was needed for 1 night. Some mould on blind but for the price I can overlook little things like that. Staff in bar very friendly and accomidating. Loud music can be heard from pub until late but my 6yr old still managed to sleep through it so didnt cause any issues. I would recommend for a cheaper stay over for Drayton Manor as its so close to the park.FromUS$46

Had a lovely stay at Travelodge Central in Tamworth.
Loved how it was placed right next to Lidl, Burger King across the Rd. Wetherspoons 50 yards away, right by Tamworth Town.
All at convenient walking distance.
One added feature would be nice.
As the walkway to Hotel Entrance is wide, a nice feature would be to add a couple of Benches, where Guests, especially older Guests, could sit while waiting for Taxi or pick-up.FromUS$53
