What guests think
Across recent reviews of Bel and The Dragon-Odiham, travellers consistently praise the friendly, welcoming staff, characterful and comfortable rooms, and the quality of the breakfast and on-site dining, noting thoughtful touches and a recently refreshed feel in some areas.
However, several guests report slow breakfast service and a 7:30 start that can feel late when on tight schedules. Rooms near the bar or public areas can be noisy, and a few feel dated or have issues such as dim lighting, stained carpets, or fixtures needing attention. Many appreciate the setting in the village of Odiham. A good fit for travellers who value charm and atmosphere, and can accept occasional noise or slower mornings.

Our stay included a delicious breakfast. There was a restaurant and pub attached. It was in the heart of the sightseeing area. Just steps from the cathedral.

The bar is far too small - the restaurant is nice and airy - clean and equipped. However- the young girl who serviced myself and my two guests - didnt help herself with her lack of table manners- by dropping food as she placed it on the table and no apology. The rooms are ok- no aircon and can be quite noisy if you have the window open- especially if you have room in the main part of the hotel- so please request the cottage or lodges if you decide to stay. Overall - it works for me due to business- but there are better places around i'm sure for the price.

Second stay and all in all it’s a good overnight option. Stayed in Hellis annex. They really need to sort out lights on approach to rooms as it’s pitch black and none were working and you risk tripping on the high steps. Room was warm and comfortable bed. Bathroom is in need of re furb as some shower floor tiles missing and black spot mould in room. Great veggie option breakfast. It’s fine but not great. I will use again at the right room rate. Parking is a bonus and Odiham is a quaint village.

I visited with 2 friends for our annual catch-up. From the moment we arrived, all staff were warm and friendly. We all had fantastic rooms. Mine was superb - large, spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable, with a beautiful Medieval wall painting. The management had literally thought of everything and it is that attention to detail that is so welcome but so often lacking, even in hotels costing triple the price. For instance, there were 2 comfortable chairs to sit in, a TV and a radio , quality coffee-making facilities, a large walk in shower and a separate bath, slippers and a dressing gown. There was even a complimentary tipple! Breakfast was included in the room price and was excellent, with a wide range of choices (brilliant poached eggs!). We also had a lovely meal in the restaurant and enjoyed the bar area in the evening. As well as being an outstanding place to stay, it was also incredibly good value. So many places are charging silly money these days for very basic facilities. As I say, this was probably the best room I’ve stayed in for a very long time. A lot of places could learn a thing or two from the Bel and the Dragon! Totally recommended.

The room we booked "Damson" was very well equipped, spolessly clean and very comfortable. The staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive giving good advice about both food and drink choices. Our only issue was the noise when trying to sleep. This was NOT the fault of the owners. The weather was very nice and customers were understandably making the most of this. Unfortunately our window was directly above a seating area.

Thought it was a double bed but it was two singles, not locked together. Very uncomfortable. Carpet in the room was stained. Room too dark with all lights on. Breakfast: my toast was hardly toasted. Had to ask for butter. Had to ask for a side plate. Didn’t expect to be in an annex. All in all this was an expensive stay.

The web pictures did not accurately reflect the age and condition of this room. It was tired and old. The box spring cover was ragged, the counter-weight of one window was broken so the window could not be moved. The shower worked fine. Even though the room was on the second floor and faced the street, it was quiet. Breakfast was good and the dining room pleasant. I would not stay here again.

Ours was a one night stay visiting relatives who have recently moved into the area. The room and facilities provided were all fine. Breakfast choice was good, and the service provided at breakfast was to a good standard. Our room was in what I believe are referred to as the stables, and while it may be prone to noise from the car park at busy times we didn't experience any problems. What spoiled the stay however was that the heating was not working and there was no hot water at all in the morning. I notice that other guests have reported this same problem in reviews. My advice therefore to guests is that they check whether they have hot water and heating on arrival and if not, move to another room. It is unfortunate, because in other respects the premises have character and the location is ideal for exploring the area.

We stayed in the Gainsborough room which is located by the stairs. You do hear other guests, coming and going. 1 set of ear plugs are provided. The room was spacious, clean and had lovely added touches. A complimentary sloe gin, chocolates, pillow spray and speciality tea and coffee bags. The bathroom was a shower only. The toiletries were nice. A shower cap would have been useful as it was a large overhead shower. The onsite restaurant is worth a visit. We had dinner and breakfast.

Second stay and all in all it’s a good overnight option. Stayed in Hellis annex. They really need to sort out lights on approach to rooms as it’s pitch black and none were working and you risk tripping on the high steps. Room was warm and comfortable bed. Bathroom is in need of re furb as some shower floor tiles missing and black spot mould in room. Great veggie option breakfast. It’s fine but not great. I will use again at the right room rate. Parking is a bonus and Odiham is a quaint village.
Second stay and all in all it’s a good overnight option. Stayed in Hellis annex. They really need to sort out lights on approach to rooms as it’s pitch black and none were working and you risk tripping on the high steps. Room was warm and comfortable bed.

This place is excellent value with comfortable and classy rooms. A solid 8/10. It could so easily have been a 10! Simple things, could have really benefited from 2 comfortable chairs in the spacious bedroom, so as to enjoy the lovely gin provided. Food sounded and looked first class but nearly all the dishes we had were over salted. I’d stay again and try dinner next door as the place was very comfortable and set in a lovely village.

Ours was a one night stay visiting relatives who have recently moved into the area. The room and facilities provided were all fine. Breakfast choice was good, and the service provided at breakfast was to a good standard. Our room was in what I believe are referred to as the stables, and while it may be prone to noise from the car park at busy times we didn't experience any problems. What spoiled the stay however was that the heating was not working and there was no hot water at all in the morning. I notice that other guests have reported this same problem in reviews. My advice therefore to guests is that they check whether they have hot water and heating on arrival and if not, move to another room. It is unfortunate, because in other respects the premises have character and the location is ideal for exploring the area.

I have stayed here many times, its comfortable and in a great location in the lovely town of Odiham. However breakfast doesn't start until 7.30 and it seems to take half an hour before your eating, this is normally too late for me.

This hotel has been recently refurbished and is now even better than it was before! It’s our regular spot when visiting nearby family. Excellent extensive breakfast menu.

Great service from all the staff. Breakfast is fresh and cooked to order plenty of options The restaurant and bar although as little quiet during my stay seemed to have a good atmosphere, open fifes and cosy seating.

This is an absolute gem of a place - because I was there for work I didn’t get to spend as much time there as I would have liked but I’d definitely go back. Lovely little touches like chocolates to match the coffee selection and great bathroom amenities. Super comfortable bed. I also ate in the restaurant - food was excellent.

I visited with 2 friends for our annual catch-up. From the moment we arrived, all staff were warm and friendly. We all had fantastic rooms. Mine was superb - large, spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable, with a beautiful Medieval wall painting. The management had literally thought of everything and it is that attention to detail that is so welcome but so often lacking, even in hotels costing triple the price. For instance, there were 2 comfortable chairs to sit in, a TV and a radio , quality coffee-making facilities, a large walk in shower and a separate bath, slippers and a dressing gown. There was even a complimentary tipple! Breakfast was included in the room price and was excellent, with a wide range of choices (brilliant poached eggs!). We also had a lovely meal in the restaurant and enjoyed the bar area in the evening. As well as being an outstanding place to stay, it was also incredibly good value. So many places are charging silly money these days for very basic facilities. As I say, this was probably the best room I’ve stayed in for a very long time. A lot of places could learn a thing or two from the Bel and the Dragon! Totally recommended.

The Breakfast was not good. The service took 40 minutes from order to delivery. There was no toast offered, no yoghurt or fruit. The waitress was a nice lady. The food once we got it was good quality it was just the time it took to reach us.

Breakfast was freshly cooked; not rushed. Room was delightful. Staff were lovely overall. I had an issue with a pot of tea for 2 ordered at the bar in the evening. It came as a large teapot with just one tea bag in it. It was very weak so I asked a member of the restaurant staff for another tea bag which never materialised. Fortunately as we were staying at the hotel we were able to collect a tea bag from the room!
