The Red Lion Hotel

Worst sleep ever. Rock hard beds and pillows, the room we stayed in was on the second floor (4 flights of stairs, no lift) and the room was on a slant, the whole place seemed uneven. The worst part though was the other clientele - loud, noisy and banging until well into the early hours, we didn’t get to sleep until 3am after trying and failing to contact the emergency phone line which told us to leave a message and they would respond within 24 hrs - good job it wasn’t an emergency like being locked out! Eventually we had to knock on the door of the person making all the noise and ask them to be quiet, not something you should have to do but the only way we could get some peace. Would avoid this place like the plague.

Hotel is very central, clean and staff are very friendly. No parking but there is well priced local parking nearby. Hotel is pet friendly but you have to eat in the bar if you have a dog (which was not a problem at all).

Checked in easily on Saturday afternoon. And had a drink in the bar with our dogs. Rooms comfortable, but very warm - equipped with fans. Breakfast very basic (£5) but sufficient for me. Very friendly, attentive staff. Great place - allowing dogs to stay for free. Would definitely stay again.

The hotel is getting better every time we stay as the refurbishment covers more and more of their rooms

Room was very nice and staff very good.
