Any very nice pubs, or hotels near Welford Road Cemetary?

We are trying to arrange my MIL's funeral. She will be buried in the family plot in Welford Road Cemetary and we need a place for a relatively small group of us to get together afterwards and warm up with tea and sandwiches. We don't live anywhere near Leicester and MIL hasn't lived there for years so we don't have anyone's house that we can use, nor are we familiar with the area at all.
Can anyone suggest a nice (smart) pub nearby, or the sort of hotel that does afternoon teas and might have a private room we could hire?
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated!

Sorry for your loss.

I can't vouch for these personally as I haven't been for many years (don't get out as much since having the dc!) but they sprung to mind.

The Belmont Hotel is walkable from the cemetery.

The Regency is 5 minutes drive away.

Can't think of any appropriate pubs. Bumping in the hope that someone else may have more bright ideas...

Thanks for your suggestions. I'd found the Regency Hotel via Google and thought it looked OK. Will take a look at the Belmont too now.

We had our wedding reception at The Regency many years ago, so I kind of have a soft spot for it, but wonder whether it's looking a bit jaded now. Belmont certainly appears swisher. Hope you get sorted.

College Court? The Cradock Arms?
