Stayed for a three night mid week break. Check in was fine despite the jazz concert going on in the lounge, room was nice, clean and comfortable and bedroom was modern. Bathroom clean but old and worn. Bed was comfy and everything worked well. The pool, sauna etc was lovely. We didn't visit the attached pub. Was not cheap but... more

My wife & I have just returned from a 1 night stay at the Red Lion. We stayed arounf 4 years ago & it was fantastic. This time dare I say it but it was even better. Very relaxing! more

We have stayed at the Red Lion Hotel on a few occasions and so far haven't been disappointed. We reserved a club room (Ruskin) which was 'massive' and looked as though it had been refurbished recently, although possibly by a 'manic depressive' as not exactly colour coordinated.

The bathroom was small but adequate, however some guidance on the operation of the shower would have been useful .TV picture and reception good,... more

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights and had a standard double room , yes the beds are a little on the small side and the hotel a little dated in parts but you can forgive this given the location of the hotel , right in the middle of a beautiful little village. Staff at the hotel were a... more

Been going for 20years- changed hands recently and is now tired, poorly managed and staffed by bored, disinterested kids. Go over the road - or anywhere else. more

Another fabulous stay in Grasmere.This time we were joined by 14 other members of our family for a surprise party for Paul! The hotel kept the secret very well for us, and were great about the balloons, cake and other bits and bobs we brought with us!We visit this hotel regularly and always enjoy our stays. The rooms are warm... more
