The Lion Hotel - Pub & Restaurant

Lots of traffic noise

Lovely staff, engaging and wih it. Rooms are a great concept but looking a little worn in parts (e.g. stair carpet) buy it's not overpriced. Doing a good job and hope they get a refurb project at some point.

The Lion Hotel was a pleasure to stay in. Clearly recently decorated to a high standard the quality of materials used were also reflected in the way the bedrooms were furnished and clean crisp linen on comfortable beds

Lovely room very comfortable staff warm welcoming and friendly would definitely stay again and highly recommend 😀

Anniversary stay Gorgeous hotel, lovely large room. Great facilities and lovely staff. Early awakening from washing machine and deliveries - understandable. Will be returning again.

Came in for drinks early Saturday evening. Was very busy but a great atmosphere. First encounter was of someone (who apparently is the manager) being rude to someone at the bar, made us feel uncomfortable. Anyway, onwards and we began chatting to friends, one of whom pointed out the same person and said they had been pushed out of the way several times by her, they were in complete shock! I later fell victim to an aggressive push as did my husband - 3 times in fact. I get that it was busy but one would like to think that was a positive thing. Absolutely no need for such a poor attitude, lack of respect and appalling manners. I think the words you were looking for were "excuse me". Many pubs are feeling the pinch and you'd expect she'd be a little more inviting and polite to customers. I have no desire to spend my money and basically be assaulted. I live locally, certainly won't be back and I shall advise others to avoid too. There are much friendlier establishments to visit in Wimborne and I can now see why it always looks empty outside of the 'happy hour'. I think you need a reset lady or at least a refresher in customer service basics. Bar staff were all lovely so maybe she can learn some tips from them.
