We booked our Dutch distbruitor in the hotel. He stated that it was one of the best hotels he had stayed in. I eat an evening meal and breakfast here which was 1st class and very good value for money. The service is second to name and a credit to the hotel. I would recommend this hotel/restaurant to anyone

Reading the last review I would say immediately that the George Hotel across the road is over twice the price of the Lion - of course if you have an expense account that maybe ok but not if it is out of your own pocket. The overall experience of a 2 night stay at the Lion was brilliant - such... More

I stayed for one night on a business trip, I have also stayed at the George across the road and The Lion is certainly a poor relation. I thought it was rather expensive (£75) for what I got, the room was cold and the bedding didn't look, smell or feel terribly clean. It wasn't a terrible stay but I wouldn't... More

Very nice room in the annexe but we were advised to stay in either room 1 or 6 next time as these had wonderful old features at no extra charge. The staff were pleasant and helpful and the food was fantastic, it was not... More

First stayed here 13 years ago for my honeymoon and loved it. Returned many a time through the years and found that as it change owners it went down hill, not only in the decor but also the staff and the food. I still kept on going back as I have a soft spot for the place, but on my... More
