With an ecclectic, grandeur interior and period hunting lodge exterior, the Belstead Brook hotel is truly one of a kind and thats why we love it. The very clean comfortable rooms and friendly staff makes our stays all the more enjoyable.

Overpriced stay, old accommodation with serious reservations needs. Pool was clean and it was only positive thing about the stay. Breakfast was over priced with horrible quality. They charge you 5 star rates for 2 star service. We had three rooms there paid 120 for each and 30 extra for breakfast which was only bread and butter and lowes quality English breakfast.

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel was okay for the money. The room was nice enough and staff polite and friendly. The spa was very rundown with tiles missing from the bottom of the pool so potentially dangerous. It was also overcrowded and my treatments were cancelled at the last minute due to lack of staff. Overall not a very relaxing spa experience. I definitely wouldn't recommend the spa

Lovely staff, room, spa, dinner, and breakfast except the scrambled eggs which were very unappealing! Only gripe is we were unable to book a spa break at the last minute so were charged £15 to borrow robes for the spa!!!

Great hotel

A one night stay for a meeting nearby and would happily stay here again. Nice friendly staff, clean, decent food. If I was being picky the pool a touch on the small side once a few people are swimming, and eating in the bar area it felt a little empty of atmosphere. Overall great and look forward to a return
