worst hotel i have ever had the misfortune to stay in. room bordered on shabby, bathroom totally inadequate, in fact ridiculously small. and the bed had a wooden board under the matress....apparently housekeeping forgot to remove it! more

This was our second stay at the Red Lion and it was just as good as last time, if not better! Staff are very friendly and welcoming. The lounge is a lovely place to read a book or have a post-dinner complimentary coffee and chocolate mint (or three). The pool, jacuzzi, steam room and sauna are fab and were surprisingly... more

We stayed here two years ago in a double standard room, which was more than adequately sized, but this time we booked a Club/Superior room and were given Coleridge Room. It was bigger and very comfortable with a large bathroom and had a jacuzzi. If you book with the hotel direct, rather than through the Best Western website, you get... more

Stayed in December 07 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Grasemere is a beautiful, quiet village. The facilities of the hotel are excellent too, with heated pool and spa facilities, as well as a large residential lounge and a fantastic pub/bar attached to the hotel. Only downside is that the room I booked was a little bit small, but, given the... more

Having stayed at The Red Lion Hotel for 5 nights in March, we were so impressed we went back again & have just returned from having had another 2 great nights there. We received the same outstanding service, with staff being courteous, efficient & professional. We booked DB&B & found this to be good value. The food was as always... more

The hotel is located in the centre of Grasmere and is a short walk, well to just about everywhere in the village. The service from the... more

This hotel seems to have recieved some outstanding reviews - unfortunately my experience of staying here was quite different. Some of the staff were verging on the rude and the room, while adequate was really a little shabby for the price - wouldn't recommend the place to anyone. more

Just returned from a short break at this hotel. Our first time in the Lake District and we were very pleased. Our bedroom was well kept and clean with lovely views and the dining room, lounge and bar were a pleasure to sit in. The staff were very efficient. Our only slight quibble was that the hotel dinner on the... more

From walking through the door on day one until the moment we left we found all members of staff very professional. The room was a little on the small side and the bathroom was a little cramped but it didn't take any of the shine away from our stay. We had only one evening meal at the hotel and it... more
