Escape Lounge

East Midlands Airport

2.7★★★★★★★★★★

Overall, from 14 metrics

🍸 Beer & wine🚿 No showers🪑 Seats 90

The only lounge in Main Terminal. An independent lounge with quiet enough for a read or a nap and Wi-Fi and power you can rely on — though seats are scarce at peak and upkeep lets it down. It seats around 90, pours beer and wine, and has no showers. Somewhere to sit down and charge a phone, not to linger. Escape Lounges gets you in.
