Nice old hotel in a great location
We had a very nice stay at the Lion. It's a fascinating old building in a great central location. The rooms are basic, but very clean and the bed was comfortable with great pillows. The breakfast was very good. The hotel is a little frayed around the edges, but that adds to the character! The staff were all lovely and very helpful.

comfortable clean stay for short break
The Staff were super helpful, from restaurant to front desk. Breakfast was very tasty. The hotel is a little tired at the edges in some places - worn carpets etc. but it was very clean and tidy and staff more than made up for it.

Elaine, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Budget stay
Kind of a tired old place, historic but shabby. A lot of stairs to rooms. Minimal hot breakfast, lukewarm showers. Okay for one night and centrally located, but definitely a budget stay.
Ashley, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Passable for a stopover
Overall a pleasant enough hotel. Many original features but definitely looking tired and unloved. Breakfast was excellent as was the service at both check in and breakfast. Absence of hot water from the shower was not pleasant
Evelyn, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not happy with the room but the breakfast was nic
Bedding was dirty. When we entered the room the window had been left open without us knowing and it had a strong smell of cannabis. When we realised we closed the window but room still stank massive dirty patch on the duvet cover. Breakfast was freshly cooked and tasted lovely, great selection and service. Bed was very uncomfortable, neither of us had a good night sleep.

Central hotel with great staff
Central hotel with parking. Very friendly and attentive staff with a nice cooked breakfast. The hotel has a great history and yes its old, but comfortable and would not be half as interesting if modified. We would definitely return.
