Hotel was great, ideal for a weekend visit. Only issues were the noise from the function below and the incredible heat in the rooms, even on a cold day it was roasting. Odd...

Handy for Belper

Good location, easy to park. Nice big room but decor a bit dated. Couldn't turn down heating in room so had to open a window overnight. We didn't eat in the hotel apart from the complimentary continental breakfast which was adequate.

The food and staff were very good. We had a delicious dinner in the evening. It was a very busy and lively pub but not causing any noise issues as a lot of the rooms are at the back in the extended area. There was plenty of parking too. However, the bed was very uncomfortable. The mattresses were very worn out, with dips in the middle and you could feel the springs. I think i would have slept better on a plank of wood. It is good value for money though and Belper town is quite noise with plenty of independent bars and shops.
