The Lion is a much extended old coaching inn, with all the ongoing maintenance issues and rambling layout that implies. Its strongpoint is its location and car parking. Rooms are generously sized, and staff chirpy, though not necessarily blessed with the training and discipline you might expect in a corporate hotel chain. The included continental breakfast is very acceptable, and if you want something cooked, it is not expensive. The Lion is right nextdoor to a Jet filling station, which is not very picturesque, and rooms at the front are over the bar, and next to the A6, so some noise. Take care if rooms at the back are offered, as some are over the hospitality areas where wedding receptions and private parties are often held at the weekend. A rousing chorus of "It's raining men" can be a little trying if you weren't invited to the party, and want to be asleep before midnight.... But it works for us, so we'll be back.....

Good location for travelling by train, 5 minute walk from Belper Station. Food was very good in the restaurant.Main complaint is about the cleaning staff holding early daily meetings on a landing outside rooms, conversations very clear from inside the room, these meetings should not be held here where they can wake guests.

A very comfortable hotel convenient for the Peak District. Although it's on the main road, it was quiet at night and it was easy to find with plenty of parking. Our room was large and clean and the bed very comfortable. We had an excellent supper in the bar and the continental breakfast was more than enough.

Very,very noisy!
It was very, very noisy which caused us lack of sleep. We were attending a Wedding the following day but unfortunately had to come back after the main meal as were both very tired. Another night of loud music and voices. We booked 3 nights but only stayed 2. I certainly would not recommend room number 5! Not a great experience.

Staff were helpful and the facilities were good. Let down by racist and homophobic clientele discussing their views very loudly and openly. Given that this was the night before Belper Pride, I would like to see the hotel sending out a clear message that this kind of behaviour will not be tolerated.

Room was adaquate, but the bathroom had a hand held shower which if you had fitted it in to the cradle, would have sprayed water out of the bath. Mattress and bedding had seen better days. Room was above reception area, and late night guests were very noisy and then staff started hoovering around midnight. Breakfast was very disappointing, dried up fruit, running out of the basics of bread and croissants. Only one staff member to serve on a busy weekend morning. Asked if they had available non-dairy milk and was told she would fetch some soy milk. Time passed and as she was obviously busy, I chose not to disturb her. As we were departing she challenged me that I should have reminded her, as she was busy. I said gently that it was not big deal and not important. She then sharply told me not to be so rude. Not impressed.

Wouldn’t want to stay if any events were on!
Wi-Fi was unavailable on Saturday afternoon and evening but was available on Sunday morning. They could do with some quieter rooms as midnight is too late for me! Staff were brilliant both evening meal and breakfast - the continental breakfast was more than sufficient so we didn’t try the cooked option!
