Easy Travel to Donington Park via the A38 & A50
Donington Park is one of the UK’s most revered racing circuits, hosting top-tier motorsport championships, corporate driving experiences, and major outdoor music events. Staying directly next to the track can often mean elevated prices and heavy perimeter traffic. Choosing Three Queens Hotel in Burton upon Trent gives you the best of both worlds: convenient access to the venue and a quieter, well-connected base to recharge.
From our hotel on Bridge Street, drivers can quickly join the A38 northbound and connect to the A50, reaching Donington Park in approximately 20 to 25 minutes depending on race-day traffic. Burton railway station is also just one mile away, providing rail links across the Midlands for travellers arriving by train.
Free On-Site Parking for Race Fans and Track Drivers

At Three Queens Hotel, we offer free on-site parking for our staying guests, eliminating the expense and stress of finding town-centre parking spaces after a long day at the track.
Our reception team is available from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, and we have a dedicated night porter on duty from 10:00 PM to 8:00 AM.

- Dress for the elements: Donington Park’s open infield and grandstands can be breezy. Packing waterproof layers and sturdy footwear ensures you stay comfortable throughout outdoor qualifying and race sessions.
