NO BREAKFAST service provided - terrible
Room 1 was nice (room with bathtub) although some attention needed to cleaning as there were cobwebs and hoovering not the best as there were bits on the floor. Worst part was breakfast service! I was told that breakfast opens at 8, I was downstairs at 8, the room was locked, lights off and no-one was there. At 0810 a girl drove into the carpark and was clearly running late, I asked her what’s happening about breakfast as I have to leave soon. She told me she wont be long, at 0820 she opened up the restaurant and I told her it was too late as I had to leave at 0830. Terrible!! I called the manager who said he would investigate and give me a refund for breakfast - still had no feedback and no refund either.

Good food in the pub.
The staff were friendly and helpful, and the food in the pub was lovely. The room was up a very steep, restricted height staircase which we didn’t expect. The bath is in the bedroom, with very poor water pressure so the shower attachment didn’t work.

Worth a visit
Lovely pub with friendly staff. Room was delightful, although I wish I'd read the description better as didn't realise the bath meant no shower, also a bit of a climb if you want the kingsize bed. Bed was comfy and thankful for the bottles of water provided and great coffee bags. Food in the evening was excellent, a few things weren't on the menu due to a delivery not arriving, but it didn't matter as what we had was delicious. Only disappointing thing was the continental breakfast. Hard, cold mini croissant and mini pan au chocolat; grated cheddar, instead of gouda or an equivalent; garlic butter provided for my toast and jam! Asked for the manager to email me but have yet to hear from them.

Disliked: Staff & service
I booked the hotel because it was close to my course location and had excellent food reviews. However, just after 5pm, as I finished my course and was looking forward to a meal, I received a call from the hotel informing me that the kitchen was closed due to staff shortages. This was highly disappointing since the main reason for choosing this hotel was its food. Upon arrival, I was further disappointed to learn that no cooked breakfasts were available, only a newly introduced continental breakfast. Additionally, there were some unsettling occurrences in my room, which made me feel uncomfortable, leading me to leave for home that evening. When I spoke with the manager, I felt ridiculed for my reason for leaving. As someone who has traveled the world for the past 20 years, I am not prone to leaving hotels for trivial reasons. This experience was highly unusual and unsettling. I requested a refund based on my dissatisfaction with the food situation but was only offered a refund for the difference between a continental breakfast and a cooked breakfast. I was told that if I had booked my stay based on the food, I should have reserved a table in advance. In this instance, the customer is not considered right, which is regrettable. I would not recommend this hotel.

Lovely rooms but disappointing overall
The room was very nicely decorated, comfortable, and clean. I liked the little touches including a card, biscuits, and proper milk (even though I don’t drink it). The downside is that I didn’t sleep well as the doors downstairs were very noisy (banging shut and squeaking) at 6am in the morning. I was really excited that the hotel price included a cooked breakfast and I was told when I checked in that breakfast was 8 - 10:30am. However when I went for breakfast I was told it didn’t start until 8:30 which is when the chef was due to arrive. For that reason this hotel is not suitable for my business stays unfortunately.

We often stay at The Red Lion. The staff are friendly and helpful . The rooms are always clean and the beds comfy . Breakfast is delicious with a lot of choice. It’s good to have the option of having lunch or the evening meal at the hotel.
