Best Western Red Lion Hotel

We have stayed at the Red Lion Hotel a few times before, but always in the summer. This stay was at the start of December. The staff had decorated the hotel wonderfully. Lots of Christmas trees and lights but sympathetic to the old charm of the building. Even though our stay was in the middle of storm Darragh and the staff probably had a nightmare trying to get to work , they were all so happy and friendly. Very impressed.

The room was clean, large, warm & furnished well. The bathroom was clean & well stocked with toiletries & towels. The buffet breakfast was excellent & the staff so friendly & informative about the history of the Red Lion. Angel was really good, she told us about the ghosts etc. Very interesting young lady! We had really good sleeps which is surprising as the hotel is right in the middle of town, we expected to hear some street noise but no, it was lovely & quiet!

I loved the location. It was quite central, there was a Nandos across the road which me and my friend were excited about even though we ended up dining in the hotel dining room. The parking space was a bonus perk too (only £15 for the night) and gave me good peace of mind. The hotel is very picturesque, especially the courtyard. The room was very big and the bed was comfortable. The staff were lovely and the food was amazing 🤩

Excellent location near the Cathedral, plenty of character and very helpful and friendly staff. Moved me to another room when I could not get their internet on my phone - they offered, I did not have to ask. Pleasant enough bar and breakfast. Parking onsite is only for those who know how to park - those spaces are tight! But very convenient.

Lovely hotel, nice room, not luxurious, but very comfortable. Very comfortable bed, great location & a beautiful building. Staff were nice & friendly, but the systems were down. Thankfully I had prepaid. Well located for a walk to the Cathedral.
