I would agree with past reviews and say the hotel is tired. I was given a nights stay as a gift as part of a Living Social deal so can't comment on the value. We were prewarned when checking in that a light fitting above the bed had been pulled out but when we got into the room, the curtain... More

I'd start by saying if the room we had was £40-£50 per night this would be a good value hotel but at almost £90 its too much, for similar money we've stayed in nice 4star hotels. Staff all around the hotel are friendly, helpful, polite and extremely accommodating this applied to all departments, starting with reception on our check in.... More

Having just returned from a weekend away with my husband in Belper, where we stayed at The Lion Hotel, (The lion pub with rooms) I feel I have to say it was a complete disappointment. On arrival at 2pm we were allocated room 8 which on entering I was shocked at the small size, the dismal appearance as there was... More

I have used this hotel 3 or 4 times when visiting my mother in Belper, which is. For me it is perfect as the place is clean, the price is good (even the Suite is good value if booked early) and the staff are all friendly. If you booked your stay on-line then went on to complain of the location,... More

We stayed at this hotel for a wedding reception. Could not fault the venue for that but was very disappointed in the room and the value. We paid £80 for bed and breakfast but could not use the shower. Water came through too cold. The whole shower unit needed attention. Finally made do with having a full wash. The room... More

My wife and I took advantage of a Living Social deal at the Lion and plumbed for the 2 night option. We cannot praise the staff highly enough. From the first cheerful greeting from the young man at reception (he should be part of the management team!) to the room maid offering to assist with our bags when leaving, they... More

We went to The Lion on a kgb deal.Our room was spacious with clean bed and towel,unfortunately it overlooked a service station and the room was llluminated by it's light all night!We felt a bit peckish after quite a long drive and decided to go and have a snack,we ordered toasted cheese sandwiches and a pot of tea.We got two...

We have just stayed on a Groupon deal which admittedly was very cheap so no complaints on value for money. The hotel appears run down and shabby much of which could be sorted by a handyman with a tool box! Our room was a great size and had pristine bedding and towels but cracked sink, lock missing from bathroom door.... More

This hotel is a stone throw from the train station, very close to local amenities and reasonably priced. The room was clean and spacious, but could do with a little TLC as as the bath was cracked, the loo roll holder hanging off, and a light bulb in the bedroom had gone. Breakfast was delicious, but it took an absolute... More
