The hotel was clean and nice to stay in. But we had a booking for the Sunday night. And was not informed that the bar and Resturant closed at 18:00. Not good as we did not finish work till 18:00. So that did spoil our stay.

A lovely weekend stay.

A lovely two night stay at the Red Lion. Myself and my daughter were visiting the air show at Duxford airfield. The hotel is ideally situated for that location and we walked to the airfield on Saturday morning. The staff at the hotel were friendly and welcoming. The rooms were clean and comfortable and l slept well. There is a good choice of food at the Red Lion. The portions are generous and it is well cooked and tasty, The full English breakfast was a great way to start the day, there are other options on the breakfast menu as well as cereal and toast. You also have a wide range of beers and lagers at the bar, my preference is for locally brewed ales, which i enjoyed here. Overall I had a great weekend and will certainly return and can highly recommended this hotel. Thank you.

Liked: Amenities
I like that: - It’s near this neat old church, for starters. - it has a quaint old English world feel to it, something I’d hoped to experience while here in England for the 1st (& very likely, not my last) time - it has very good service from the workers. Next time, I’ll organize my tour of the university better & when I do, just guess where I’ll be staying ;)

The management describe it as a modern day coaching in and that is a good description. The staff were lovely, and the breakfast was first rate. If I have any gripe is about the bathroom. I hit my head on the low ceiling a couple of times and there was a bath with a hand held shower attachment but no shower curtain and the ow ceiling meant I couldn’t stand to use it.

Bed was comfortable. Shower in bath was laughable. I had to kneel to shower I am 5ft. No chance for husband as he over 6ft. Dust on shelves downstairs in eating and bar area cat roaming in restaurant jumping up on tables. Food needs to be looked at.

Nice and homely.

Lovely dated property that is very welcoming with friendly helpful staff. The bed was two beds put together but when you see the size of the corridors it explains why. We both slept really well and had no problems with it. Only criticism would be the bathroom. It was a bit tired and was showing signs of needing an upgrade. The pub is mainly directed to the food side of the business, which we couldn’t blame them, but was still a nice place for a pint or two. The food was excellent and well priced. We would definitely stay again.
