The Lion Hotel

My husband and I called in for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. We were seated in the pizza room which was empty, so nice and quiet. From the menu we chose the fish platter to share and had a side of chips. The food was served quickly and was piping hot. The service was very good and the staff were attentive ensuring we were happy with our meal.

Called in for some lunch and we had roast beef baguette with roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and gravy. It was excellent value for money at £8.50 was really nice. We sat in the courtyard in the sun which was also nice and relaxing with a beer in the sun. All 3 of the crook's family pub's are really well run and offer good food at really good prices. Would recommend to all.

It's 3 star hotel, but i want to say, then service is on 5 stars. Room and bathroom was clean, didn't see dusts around. We are stay on 2 nights, but second day bed, bathroom was hand up around and coffee, tea, sugar and cookies was top up. Bed was comfortable for sleeping. Breakfast and later dinner was delicious. Pub working to 1am in the morning. They're wrote in your e-mail then they have a busy place to the late in evening, but for us that didn't was a problem, because we went to sleep after midnight and then soon stay quiet. Staff is friendly and helpful 💯👍 I recommend this place and if I'll travel around that area and will need to hotel, I'll choose again this one.

We stayed at the Lion Hotel over night on Saturday to attend a local wedding. The room although slighted dated was spotless, we had a lovely view . The staff were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Secure parking amazing food especially the bread . The only little niggles I had were the door from the car park to reception was really grubby and smokers did tend to congrigate by that door,my initial thought was OMG where have we come but once inside that thought disappeared. A designated smoking area and a clean door would really make a difference to first impressions. We would definitely stay again, surrounded by history, beautiful.

We stayed for 3 days as we were attending a wedding at Shottle Hall and thoroughly enjoyed our stay The service was excellent and staff were very friendly. The rooms, if a little tired in places, are clean and very comfortable. In particular the bed was the most comfortable I have ever slept in. Downstairs the pub is lively and serves good food. There is plenty of free parking. All in all I would thoroughly recommend staying here.
