We went to stay to be near a family occasion and found this to be a good value for money. There are a number of minor issues where a socket didn’t seem to work, a party which carried on to midnight we didn’t know about and the bar closing early on a Sunday, but the people were very helpful and friendly and the food for breakfast was excellent and gluten-free. Parking is limited but they are planning on expanding that so if that’s important you need to know. in terms of sustainability it’s a 400 year-old building so full marks for that, otherwise didn’t seem to be a priority.

Lovely big room, very comfy bed and gorgeous quality bed linen. A friendly, welcoming hotel where everyone is hard working. Our dog Jessica was made very welcome too. My only feedback is that I am a very light sleeper and somewhere in the hotel there was a door banging which I think can be easily solved by tightening up the damper.

Very good location for the train service into Cambridge. The old inn had very low doors so you had to be careful, but it made it a unique experience.

Just staying one night, really nice place, ive stayed here many times before.
Breakfast was excellent this time (last time you had to walk to the horrid modern place next door due to "Covid"
Friendly staff and excellent value for money.
I will be staying again.
Well done Red Lion.

The staff were cheerful and helpful. The toilet bowl was dirty, the shower outlet was partial block and tea table sticky. The new management don’t seem to have yet to have got on top of housekeeping yet.

Great place to stay. The food at this pub was amazing. The Paprika Chicken Souvalki was big and delicious.
Breakfast was superb too.
The room was spacious and has everything you need. The decor is close to needing a refresh but assume this will be done soon as the pub is under new management.

Very nice pub/hotel. Some rooms only have a both tub so you should specfy a shower unit if desired.

Staff were incredibly lovely and made the trip.
Room was nicely decorated however had a slight smell and a slightly damp carpet near the bathroom which we think was due to the shower not draining the water properly. Bed was comfortable and clean.
Pub downstairs is great and has lots of character.
Food was a bit on the pricey side for pub grub but was still tasty.

Located in a quiet setting, with ample parking at the door, the Red Lion is a hidden gem where patrons are put first by staff. The building is over 500 years old yet retains it charm and comfort. Couldn't recommend it more.
