Lovely stay
Lovely stay at the Red Lion comfortable accommodation with good facilities. The only downside was the room could do with a good dust throughout. We ate in the pub and both nights the food was fantastic 😋Service good and staff friendly.

Spacious bedrooms in a great location
Visiting family in Histon and the Red Lion is in a perfect location. The rooms are located on a block at the back of the pub garden. The rooms are large as are the bathrooms. They’re a little dark decor wise for my taste so could be more uplifting.

Excellent room in an annex, so very quiet, clean, plenty of wardrobe/drawer space. King size bed and walk in shower. No breakfast available but plenty of nearby cafes in Histon and a Tesco Express opposite tThree he pub. The pub staff were friendly and helpful. Pub does good pub style food. Good bus service/park and ride into Cambridge. An enjoyable stay at a reasonable price

What a lovely room, tucked behind the beer garden and lovely and private ( and quiet) great facilities at a fabulous price. The fact we could park so close was a bonus too. Staff could not have done any more for us and we were well looked after. We will be back!

I was allowed to check in early and had an extra guest with me who was not on my booking. No problem whatsoever. The staff were absolutely brilliant. Lovely comfortable room. The under floor heating in the bathroom was awesome. One little word of warning though, the heated towel rail gets VERY hot. Tea and coffee provided along with fresh milk rather than the usual uht stuff. Lovely touch. Bed Lovely and comfortable. No complaints whatsoever ❤️

We went to the Red Lion purely because it suited regarding location. We were actually attending a funeral with family from that area! We were VERY pleasantly surprised by the room. It was spacious and had everything we needed. The bathroom was huge! It was perfect for us. We only stayed one night but, for someone who wanted to explore the area, it is a great place to stay. It was also very good value for money.

Excellent
We only stayed 1 night and the never ate in the hotel as we were told about the curry house across the road which was very good . We wanted a place to be near Godmanchester , it was a bit further than we wanted but I can recommend the Red Lion for cleanness
