Apart from the brilliant bar/restaurant staff, this was probably the worst "hotel" I have ever stayed in - especially for the money. The food was barely edible, and the room (number 4) was beyond tired. The bed was uncomfortable, and the room was right next to some kind of air conditioning unit that was noisy and made sleep impossible!! The shower was hardly functioning (more of a dribble, than a shower)... Breakfast was overcooked and poor in the extreme. Not the sort of evening you need the night before a business meeting.

Lovely staff and great location for our activities. Price was great value, but reflective of the age and condition of the property. Included breakfast was good, and the lady serving breakfast on the 4th August was lovely. Thank you 😄

We had a great time, the staff were attentive and friendly. The food was good and the room perfect. We could highly recommend a stay at The Red Lion, you won't be disappointed.

A great one night stay as a family with 2 children. Staff were all helpful and friendly and food was good for both dinner and breakfast. Would stay again and would definitely recommend.

The road noise was a serious issue for us, particularly as we had requested a quiet room. But the service at the hotel was mostly fine.

Run by a friendly family. Room was small but nice funiture/ equiped. An old house bur cosy

The staff was absolutely lovely. They helped with everything and were so delightful. Im definitely staying there again!

We didn't stay at the Red Lion since Expedia somehow didn't forward our reservation- which we didn't find out until we arrived and they were fully booked. But the hotel bent over backwards to find us a room in a nearby hotel about 10 minutes away and apologized profusely about the error (which was not their fault). 5 stars for their professionalism and customer service. Be warry of booking this hotel through this site though, the Red Lion indicated another potential guest had the same problem earlier this year.

We had a lovely few days stay last Bank Holiday, it is a charming pub with great staff, nothing is too much for them, very friendly and breakfast was Best! Delicious! My only suggestion would be to have at least brewed coffee! Beautiful place and very calm even though there is open bar downstairs.

Clean rooms, good food and very friendly staff

Lovely old pub. Staff excellent.

Lovely stay, very friendly staff, rooms comfortable & clean, great breakfast. Nice traditional pub with an Olde World charm. Nice location close to Lulworth Cove & Dorchester

Most welcome I’ve ever felt anywhere! Great food and lovely atmosphere.

Not worth the money.

Nothing to mention

Hotel was a little old fashioned, but we enjoyed our stay, it was handy for our visit to the Dorset coast and friends, staff were friendly and accommodating, food was good, plenty of parking

Very welcoming cozy country pub. Tasty breakfast included - eggs done really well. Gluten free options. Just the base we needed for a weekend walking on the coast nearby

even though i was staying above a very busy pub i could not hear anything once in my room. the food was well cooked and speedy.

Great home from home breakfast was a bit overcooked but would happily recommend and will be staying again in the future

The host is very friendly, polite
