Overall Ratings & Reviews Red Lion Tavern

This 16th century pub has it all! Clean, spacious rooms, popular British ales and delicious, reasonably priced food. We spent two nights here before walking the Cotswold way and the location was perfect, right in the center of town, yet cozy and quiet. Our room was quaint, and historic but had all the modern conveniences, and the bathroom was the size of a dance hall! The staff were warm and friendly. From check-in to the final good bye, they couldn’t do enough for us!

It was fantastic. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was excellent, very clean and spacious

Made very welcome by Sophie who explained everything we needed to know. Our room was very clean and cosy.

Ideal start to Cotswolds Way. Nice clean and comfortable room which.despite being on a road junction, was quiet enough to facilitate a good nughts sleep, helped by the secondary double glazing. An earlier breakfast option might have been helpful to facilitate a fuller day of walking

Went to check in was given a double room not Deluxe Double Room, we paid for the deluxe double room for the use of a bath as unable to use a shower due to disabilities. We also found out in our double room the toilet wasnt working and reported it to reception. The reception told me a plumber would be out to fix between . 4.pm and 5.30 however this was not fixed at all and i had to keep asking . They informed me that it was ok for the night but it wasnt working at all i had to manually fill the cistern up with the shower head . Totally unacceptable.

Nice clean spacious room, which was comfortable. Suited our needs perfectly

We stay in the Jethro room. Which was lovely. Would say due to the size of the room and also the bathroom ( with separate shower and claw footed tub !) could almost be classed as an apartment. We are in the red lion on the evening and the food was cooked perfectly. The pub itself is lovely with little nooks, and the garden area is great too. Only thing I would say is the pub did have a chill in the evening and could have benefited from having the fireplaces lite ( which would have also added to the atmosphere) Breakfast in the morning again was done very well very attentive staff. We would definitely stay again

Would not recommend and if I could give 0 stars, I would. We were shown to the front door of our block and left to find our room, the room was not what was booked - we booked the deluxe room as it was for a birthday and walked into a small double bedroom. As we left to go to reception, the door key didn’t lock the door so had to leave it unlocked. As I walked in to complain, one of the bar staff was using her hands swearing at a customer laughing ignoring me waiting. Eventually came over, and effectively was told they know nothing, and need to speak to the manager. It transpires that there was an error booking - hotels.com blame the red lion and vice versa. They’d switch our booking with the couple who booked the basic room but they’d already checked in. As a gesture, we were given a bottle of wine. Hotels.com have been unable to obtain approval for a refund from the red lion despite being assured this would be sorted. To add insult to injury, the toilet only worked in the room if you manually added water to the cistern. Poor service and would not recommend based on the service received. If booking the double room, be aware this is basic - no basic toilet facilities and it is a double bed not king, as they’ve advertised.

Have stayed here a few years ago, which was lovely, but this time was terrible, the pub itself was dirty and unwelcoming, bins outside were filthy and rubbish in the car park, .Staff tried their best but had no idea what was going on, we did not get in the room until 4.30pm, after looking for the keys, the room was not the one we had booked, but was clean enough,

Great place for a one night stay

Really lovely place to stay. Staff and breakfast was amazing xxx

Lovely area in the Cotswolds, quirky pub with so much potential, short staffed, wood burner no attempt to create an atmosphere to light it, room bed made up with no linen, no duvet cover, no bed sheets, no pillow cases, no shower floor mat, no hand towels, no amenities, no milk. Lovely quirky room just lacking care and attention. Very disappointed overall such potential for this place

Room was lovely apart from couldnt turn radiator down as thermostat valve broken. Also breakfast was a disapointment no cereal or fresh food u asked what wanted. I had scrambled egg hardly anything on plate.

Room was clean and comfortable, However, the radiator was broken and stuck on max, meaning the room was like a sauna and due to the storm, we couldn’t open the window. We weren’t told breakfast was accessed via the back door and a member of the public had to explain it to us! When we did get in, we were told the kitchen staff hadn’t arrived, even though breakfast was supposed to have stayed 30 minutes before! When we can to check out (our room was outside the main building) all doors were locked. All a bit chaotic.

Really good value for money, really nice Room very Clean, Good Breakfast only let down by No Brown Sauce !
