Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We came to visit family who live nearby in the village, so it was very convenient to stay at the Red Lion. The apartment was great, the super-king-sized bed was very comfortable with lovely cotton sheets, and there was a great shower. Staff were very friendly and the apartment block is a short walk from the pub, so it is private and quiet. Would definitely stay again .

Great experience 👍

We stayed in a room in an annex at the rear of the pub, nice and quiet. The room was spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. We had dinner at the pub and it was delicious. Staff were welcoming snd friendly. Would definitely stay here again

Our stay was comfortable. The bed was roomy and clean. Tea/coffee was plentiful and plenty of storage. Staff helpful and polite and we would definitely stay there again. Only downside was our television kept losing signal (could have been due to atmospherics) which annoyed the hell out of hubby when he was trying to watch the footy!

Lovely stay

Lovely stay at the Red Lion comfortable accommodation with good facilities. The only downside was the room could do with a good dust throughout. We ate in the pub and both nights the food was fantastic 😋Service good and staff friendly.

Spacious bedrooms in a great location

Visiting family in Histon and the Red Lion is in a perfect location. The rooms are located on a block at the back of the pub garden. The rooms are large as are the bathrooms. They’re a little dark decor wise for my taste so could be more uplifting.

We only stayed 1 night and the never ate in the hotel as we were told about the curry house across the road which was very good . We wanted a place to be near Godmanchester , it was a bit further than we wanted but I can recommend the Red Lion for cleanness
