Apart Hotel Rugby

Working a project at MIRA Technology Park? Whether you're an automotive test engineer, an OEM secondee, or a supplier running a programme at the proving ground, where you stay for the duration matters.

MIRA Technology Park near Nuneaton (CV10 0TU) is Europe's leading mobility R&D cluster — home to 35+ OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers and automotive technology companies, with 100km of proving ground and 40+ test facilities. Engineers come in from across the UK and overseas for weeks at a time on test, validation and development programmes.

Apart Hotel Rugby is a practical base for MIRA project stays — about 41 minutes' drive away, far enough to be a quiet residential setting, close enough for a daily commute to the Park.

✓ Kitchenette in every room — proper meals after a long day of testing
✓ Free on-site parking — leave from a known spot each morning

Locum doctor with a placement at UHCW? Whether you're at University Hospital Coventry or the Hospital of St Cross in Rugby, where you stay makes or breaks a locum block.

Apart Hotel Rugby is built for medical staff on placement. The Hospital of St Cross is just a few minutes away in Rugby; University Hospital Coventry is about 28 minutes' drive. Self check-in 24/7 via smart lock means it doesn't matter if your shift ends at 2am or you arrive after a long drive between trusts — no reception desk to catch.

What locums actually need:
✓ Kitchenette in every room — cook a proper meal after a night shift instead of another takeaway

✓ Free guest laundry — essential for a multi-week placement

✓ Free 14-day cancellation — when placements get rescheduled

Invited to a wedding in Warwickshire? The hard part isn't the outfit — it's where to stay.

Most Warwickshire wedding venues are country houses and barns with little or no on-site accommodation: Coombe Abbey, Brownsover Hall, Ashton Lodge, Bourton Hall, Draycote Hotel, Stoneleigh Abbey, Dodmoor House. Beautiful for the day. A problem at 11pm when you need somewhere to sleep and you've had a few glasses of wine.

Apart Hotel Rugby is a central, practical base for wedding guests across south and east Warwickshire. Self check-in 24/7 via smart lock means it doesn't matter how late the reception runs — no reception desk to catch before it closes. Every room has air-con, a kitchenette for a quiet breakfast the morning after, and free on-site parking so you can leave the car and taxi to the venue.

Booking a block for the wedding party? We do multi-room bookings for families and guest groups — contact us directly and we'll hold rooms together.

Wars of the Roses LIVE! returns to Warwick Castle this summer — 18 July to 31 August 2026.

If you've never seen it before: 30 years of medieval history compressed into 30 minutes of live action. Jousting, sword fighting, stunts, special effects — Lancaster vs York, Red Rose vs White, with the audience picking sides. It's loud, fast, and the kids talk about it for weeks afterwards.

The show is included in the standard day ticket, so a Warwick Castle visit becomes a proper day out: Wars of the Roses LIVE!, plus the Falconer's Quest (60+ birds of prey), Zog Live shows for younger kids, the Horrible Histories Maze, and 64 acres of castle grounds. You won't fit it all into one day.

Which is why staying overnight matters. Apart Hotel Rugby is 38 minutes' drive from Warwick Castle — far enough to be quiet, close enough to do a two-day castle break. Self check-in 24/7 means late arrivals are no problem. Every room has air-con (helpful in July/August), kitchenettes for breakfast at your own pace, and free parking. Selected ground-floor rooms are pet-friendly.

The Kenilworth Food and Drink Festival is back at Abbey Fields on Sunday 26 July 2026 — and if you've been before, you'll know how the day unfolds.

You spend three hours wandering between dozens of traders. Street food from a dozen kitchens, local cheese and bakery stands, craft drinks from local producers (Rugby Distillery has been a regular). There's live music on the main stage. Bouncy castles and face painting for the kids. By mid-afternoon you're full, the kids are tired, and you've still got a 40-minute drive home through Warwickshire lanes.

Or — you stay the night.

Apart Hotel Rugby is about 38 minutes' drive from Abbey Fields. Self check-in 24/7 via smart lock means you can rock up whenever the day finishes. Every room has air-con (welcome in late-July heat), a kitchenette for proper morning coffee, and free on-site parking. Selected ground-floor rooms are pet-friendly if you're bringing the dog to the festival.
