Arrived 2200 last night so too late for dinner sadly as the menu looks fantastic. Anyway, first impressions were positive and the building is quite imposing from the road. Got checked in, very friendly and professional service and pointed towards my room. After a hard earned beer in the bar (closes 23.00) I went upstairs and found my room. Whilst dated inside, the room had everything I needed for one night away. Large bathroom with toilet/basin/bath & shower, a small TV and a very very comfortable double bed. I did find the room slightly too warm and I'll request a fan next time I check in. Slept like a log! This morning I went for breakfast and asked for Eggs Benedict with coffee. That came and rapidly vanished as it was so good. So much difference to the nasty dump I endured with my partner exactly one week ago on the South Coast! Would recommend and hope to make it for lunch or dinner next time I'm in Leicester. Very enjoyable.

“Good location ”

This hotel is perfectly located if you are visiting the Demontford Hall. It's an easy and safe walk. I was grateful for the free parking at the hotel.

This hotel is perfectly located if you are visiting the Demontford Hall. It's an easy and safe walk. I was grateful for the free parking at the hotel. Not sure how easy it would be if you can't get a space. The staff were pleasant and the room we had was spacious. A couple of items of furniture were looking a little sorry for themselves, but we didn't mind at all. The bar was fine, with good wine. It wasn't open when we returned from an evening at the Demontford Hall, which surprised me. Breakfast the next morning was a little slow in service, but we weren't in a rush so it was ok. The food was good. We would definitely return if we are going to Demontford Hall again.

“Previous guests’ takeaway found in room.”

I’ve stayed at The Belmont a few times now and previous visits have been fine. As usual, the car park is a challenge and was again full when I arrived at 3pm (bang on check-in time). If you book in the hope of guaranteed parking just be aware of this. The hotel itself is welcoming and the rooms... lisää

I’ve stayed at The Belmont a few times now and previous visits have been fine. As usual, the car park is a challenge and was again full when I arrived at 3pm (bang on check-in time). If you book in the hope of guaranteed parking just be aware of this. The hotel itself is welcoming and the rooms are very unique due to the nature of the building layout. Complimentary toiletries, bottled water and hot drinks are in the room. The reason for the 3/5 rating is twofold: - There was a previous guests’ half-eaten takeaway in the wardrobe which made the whole wardrobe smell of fish! Fortunately I didn’t have anything to put in here but it wasn’t a great experience discovering it. Hotel were apologetic but for a 4* hotel I’d expect better. - Toilet paper was half a roll only which, for 2 people, might not be enough. Indeed I ran out overnight. If the price was competitive I’d consider staying again but I don’t think it’d be my first choice any longer.
