Cheap little place to stay. Great for the price as we just needed somewhere to sleep. Staff was polite and friendly. Our room was in the annex so no noise from the pub. My only complaint was they only had 1 twin room which was on the top floor and I struggle with mobility and stairs.

This hotel ticked all the boxes. It was a really good price in the location we were looking for. Hotel / Bar staff were amazing. The food smelt amazing although did not spend enough time at the hotel to try this. Rooms were tired and maintenance was questionable but for us, we were happy that really we had got what we paid for. Would definitely stay again if need a hotel in the area. Room had everything you needed including iron and ironing board

The staff were great and the Indian cuisine was amazing! The first room they showed us was in bad shape - broken doorknob, broken cabinet, no water pressure. They switched us to another room that was just fine and were nice about it. They’re going to renovate and repair all the hotel rooms this summer - when they’re all fixed this will be a great place to stay. Despite the hiccup we really enjoyed the Red Lion Inn.

The room looked clean at first glance but it was unhygienic - stains on the bedsheets, blanket and in the bathroom. They forgot to provide a fan and it was really hot in the room as well. Not the best room for summers.

The room was lovely, food/drinks were gorgeous (especially the lamb rogan josh), but the people were the highlight of my stay. Kind and attentive staff and great entertainment with a live band! Thank you so much for this perfect experience. Will be back to stay again :)

The staff was friendly, but that's about it. The state of the room was shocking. There was dust on everything, the room had a very bad odour and had to leave the window half open for the entire night just to be able to stomach the stench. I am pretty sure some other guests smoked there before even with no smoking sign on the door.

Super nice, helpful staff. Easy to check in. Got help with my bags to my room. Good location. Lots of value. It's an older place, but for the price exactly what i was looking for.
