Central location. The blue plaque at the front.
Windows were locked
Good location. Comfortable room.
Very noisy as above bar. Will book second floor next time. Very thin curtains with bright street lights. Had to buy a sleep mask.
Nice typical old style town pub / Hotel with everything on your doorstep. Probably a good idea to add the nearest car Parking details and maybe arrange a parking discount as I did not see this when I booked.
Slightly noisy as it's on the main town street we could hear everything with just one window open
Central to everything. Cody, clean comfortable rooms. Friendly staff

Location was good, atmosphere in evening was nice in bar area. Didn't try the breakfast.
walls thin so could hear next door snoring unfortunately in 2nd floor room. May not be so in all rooms.
The location was perfect
The view from our room window was a brick wall!!! The room itself was very small & right next to the linen closet where we got woken early by the staff talking & laughing!!!
Staff were very helpful, I phoned as I couldn’t find hotel sat nav took me to a car park, the lady came and found us and directed us to the hotel, she was lovely. The beds were very comfortable and the room was clean.
Too much noise outside hotel, we faced onto the market sq. we were awaken at 5.45 with a road sweeper who constantly drove up and down the market sq until 7.30. If there are rooms which don’t overlook the street, it would be absolutely great. Did wait a very long time for breakfast we ordered at 8.10 and it finally arrived at 8.55 our bacon baps arrived.
I liked how friendly the staff was very clean room
Great Location in the centre of town. Cheap parking near by.. The rooms were clean and more than adequate for a weekend break. Hotel bar was nice and lively with the locals.
The room needed a little attention as some electrical sockets were not working and curtain pole needed fixing.
I've stayed at the hotel twice before so I guess that answers your question. I think it serves my nead well and is priced well.I will use it again whenever I'm in Spalding Thank You
There wete a couple of small repairs that needed attention, but nothing that would put me off going back.
Did not have breakfast rooms were exceptionally clean best I’ve stayed in be proud of your housekeeping
Plugs could have been nearer to mirrors for drying hair but feel like not picking with this comment
Convenient location Great modern facilities in bedroom
Food expensive and not as good as I expected
The customer service, staff, everyone made us feel welcome and helped l. Staff are friendly. The food was exceptional.
Nothing.
The staff and service was great as well as the Sunday Roasts.
Only one small thing, but I think it might be the same for smaller hotels, the bar didn’t stay open longer for residents.
In the town centre
Was very very warm during our stay. The rooms was sadly like a sauna. We tried with the fans which was offered by the very friendly staff. But didn’t help much
It was in the town close to the coffee bars and close to the shops very pretty place
Haveing no breckfast to start the day was a shame
Greeted with a smile. Very busy barplug sockets. Was comfortable clean & spacious
Plug sockets. You needed an adaptor to be able to plug in. Had to ask for milk none in the room
Idea place to stay in Spalding. Always welcoming and good location.
Another lovely stay at my go to place in Spalding ,nothing to fault .
The early morning noise at 4 am as the market sets up , especially if you are staying in one of the front rooms.
Friendly staff and great location.
My room was a furnace. It was unbelieveably hot in that room and the windows couldn't open very far. Also a cleaning lady just barged in my room in the morning while I was half naked - she kept asking me questions and took a while to leave.
Staff lovely and helpful, breakfast for price and service great, evening meal good and value.
Window latch broken ( note on it don’t open ) was a bit hot and no fresh air. Sure this has been fixed now. L
Room very clean everything was spot on
To noisy bin mean up at the crack of dawn. Dogs barking pub customers shouting out side the pib when pub closing Biggest down fall is that the business is not VAT Registered. Which means I won't be stopping at the pub again. Sorry..
Great stay. Wonderful food!
Easy accessibility
No parking
The hotel is located right in the city centre. The room was spacious, very clean, and smelled fresh. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The breakfast was also very good. I will definitely return to this hotel on my next visit.
We visited during a heatwave, so it would have been nice to have complimentary bottled water in the room.
Good sized rooms, booked a twin room.
Welcoming a friendly staff, very helpful
Friendly welcome as always and great facilities for the price
Very difficult to sleep during the heatwave and been on the top floor probably didn't help Maybe consider getting portable air con units should these heatwaves become more common
The family room was very nice,hotel has had a refurb,
Terrible for parking,and breakfast was not included in the price
Every one so welcoming . Thank you Lucy for your help.
Clean central good value. Good clear signage menu door notice etc
No lift. Room cleaner knocked on door but still opened it when I shouted that we were in bed at about 9 am
Great location and we were amazed with our bedroom
Nothing not to like …. honestly
Location
Early check out, which admittedly I didn’t look at when I booked. Didn’t think anyone done 10am these days. Only one towel for two people. Given a smaller room but sold it with air conditioning, whoever we didn’t have the remote for it, and I wasn’t calling someone at 2am for a replacement.
All was really good , room was nice ,m good breakfast.
The value of the room was excellent as the location was spot on for our needs. The staff were attentive and friendly. The cleanliness was flawless and the shower was great. The bed was comfortable and everything ie. TV, fan and kettle were provided.
I didn't see a little sign above a plug socket saying not to use it until it was too late and I blew a fuse (sorry again). If the message was a bit bigger I would have seen it.
Room had no air conditioner, was over 40 degrees in room during hot weather, curtains left open, only a fan provided by no use. Impossible to stay inside room and had to leave and find another hotel
The staff were really friendly and helpful - the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming.
We spent the hottest weekend in the year here and, although I understand it's an old building the rooms did get really hot and could have done with stronger fans.
Roof terrace in Room.28 a big bonus to chill out on with a drink after dinner!!
4 flights of stairs to room 28!! Can be a little noisy early evening, but its a popular place quitens down later on! Can't separate reading light from main bedside wall light????
Clean and staff were nice enough to wait for me to arrive
The room was far too hot and the window was locked shut
Close to where we were attending an event.
Ants in the bathroom. Being woken before 7am by noise in the room below.
Location was good
Parking and noise level on a Saturday night until early hours
Location was great and parking was free just outside the property. Room was comfortable and clean and the staff were very helpful,

Location and friendliness
All good
Lovely clean room. Constant hot water. Friendly staff.
Mirrors not close to power points therefore difficult when using hair dryer.
Very good location, comfortable very clean rooms
Nothing
Lovely location and fun to be above a pub, not noisy which was good!
Room was very hot and hard to cool down
Historic hotel in the centre of Spalding. Room and bathroom was clean.
Bed was very hard, room extremely hot even with fans provided in the room. Poor value at £90 per night without breakfast.
no breakfast their
Great staff, good quality food at dinner, value drinks and breakfast. Great location right in town centre.
Bed was far too hard, had to skip the second night.
Room was lovely and large. Very clean! Fan in room and blanket on bed. Extra pillows. Great tray of coffee, tea and hot chocs and biscuits which is very generous and thoughtful. However, my bed was very hard and very creakey. I didn't get back to my room till late and showered so by the time I laid out on it, it was already gone 1am. So only the bed was a let down. Room and staff was great so would still recommend for price and location.
The bed very hard, uncomfortable and creakey. Also couldn't have just the bed side lamps on in the room when I tried, as no buttons just on them so main light seemed to be linked to them. And couldn't seem to get the shower to turn to cold no matter how I tried. Fab hair dryer though!!!
Clean organised, staff nice
Creaky floor boards In the room above - Woke us up at 6.30 and carried on for an hour
Red Lion Hotel exceeded my expectations. Room was perfect, atmosphere at the pub was lovely. Congratulations, I will come back!
Perfectly located for us as we were seeing a show at The South Holland Centre.
The lady at reception advised us, as we were checking in that we should probably open our window and put something in to keep it open (room number 22) as “your room is going to be hot, it’s just had new windows”. It was so hot (must be under floor piping or something?) that we could not sleep, despite following the “advice” of jarring the window open- before we went out to the show, so air had had time to get in - we were so so hot we could not sleep. It was as not to be blamed on any weather, it was some heating issue and it was just un bearable. Without water in the room or a fan - despite knowing it was going to be hot for us, none of these steps had been taken…we decided to give up and checked out at about 6.15am on the Sunday morning. It was meant to be a little romantic treat away. We dove home and got straight into bed.
The hotel is well run and make so welcome
Nothing
Fabulous rooms, looks to be recently renovated, bathroom not as modern but still ok. I got the bedroom Jimi Hendrix stayed in and the photos up was a nice touch!
Little loud in the morning with the delivery at 8am so lots of banging, I didn’t mind it though.
Clean and convenient. Good pub below
Lots of noise throughout the night from doors banging
Excellent room
Great location comfortable room friendly staff Good value for money
the room was clean, the bed comfortable and the shower/bathroom facilities, including towels, were fine
Due to a private function we couldnt eat in the hotel unless we ate within minutes of arrival. There was a single chair in the room. Not a problem in itself but useless when there was a sign on it saying "chair broken." The winter olympics was on tv but the signal dropped off roughly every five minutes - very annoying.
Great staff and very central
It was great value

I filled th sheets for breakfast at 8am it wasn't ready i had to leave to put another parking ticket on my car as they didn't adhere to my time I wanted my breakfast, It was ready when I got back but I wasn't happy with that service, My lady stayed behind for the breakfast it turned up minutes after I left and was 2 small burgers that you can buy cheaper and looked better very disappointing finish to a good stay
Spotlessly Clean throughout. Food well cooked and presented, excellent service in the dining room and bar
Needs a blackout blind / bright light on outside all night.
Easy check in, really comfortable room, friendly staff and bar area.
Nothing
Good all-rounder, good beer ,great location
