The Red Lion Hotel

Room and bed were amazing, clean and very comfy, very convenient location to everything.

You can't control the heating in the room, it's controlled centrally and was extremely hot. The hotel rooms are two floors up and there's no lift, and the sound proofing was very poor in a very busy street, could hear people talking and all the traffic at all times. Maid didn't clean the room the first day, despite leaving the tag to clean up the room and there's no receptionist, or contact and this morning, at 7 am, I could not get back into the hotel as the key stopped working.

The décor and design in the room bathroom was really nice

The side door to get into the hotel would get jammed by the dead bolt. It was confusing how to check in, and very busy at the bar, so with coats and bags even 10 mins felt a while to check in.

The bathroom was clean and spacious, the bed also seemed comfortable and the room was well soundproofed

The windows could not be opened that much and since the floor was carpeted I would have preferred to let more air circulate

really nice comfy room, very welcoming staff

Rhe noise. i checked before I booked, nothing on, on a Wednesday night,i was wrong and I felt as if i was going crazy. I learnt they hadn't mentioned salsa class in the ballroom below my room , finished just after 11, but ruined my stay unfortunately

The room is tastefully decorated, clean and comfortable.

Friendly staff. Cosy room. Attentive service. great bar.

Noise from private function downstairs on Saturday night (ended at 1am). Fire alarm going off multiple times during the night - told by staff this was caused by somebody setting it off during the party

Location very good, although we stayed due to a gig. Very comfortable room.

Would be good if breakfast was offered.

Convenient location near to good transport connections to a range of areas in the city. Close proximity to our daughter’s flat - we were visiting and spending 3 days with her. Relatively quiet location, but close to shopping, bars and restaurants. The room was pleasantly decorated. The bed was comfortable and spacious.

The only contact we had with staff was on arrival when we were shown to our room by the manager and given our key. No checks to see if we were comfortable or had requests on additional services or local information were made. Our room “Charles” was on the second floor and was reached via 4 long flights of stairs. The stairs were dark and poorly-lit with lighting automatically coming on when certain points were passed. These stairs would be difficult to climb by elderly guests - my wife broke her femur a couple of years ago and still finds it difficult to climb such long stairways. It was not clear on booking that rooms were on the second and third floors with no lift access. In the bathroom, the pop-up waste outlet on the washbasin was missing so it was impossible to fill the washbasin for washing properly. The shower is located over the bath and functions well, however, an elderly guest or one with infirmities will find it extremely difficult to climb over the high edge into the bath. The bath is quite narrow in width, so the base of the shower area is curved giving a small flat area on which to stand. An anti-slip mat should have been provided to reduced the risk of slipping in the shower. Clothes storage was non-existent. Two coat hangers were provided for hanging items of clothing. A small table and two chairs were the only other means of storing clothes. A small wardrobe or covered hanging rail would be more suitable options. The only mirror was in the bathroom. A more functional option would be to have a mirror close to an electrical socket which would allow a guest to style their hair properly after showering. No breakfast was on offer and coffee/tea facilities were minimal and basic.

Great place. On Leytonstone High Road and a couple of minutes walk from the tube. We had food at the pub which was excellent along with the service. Pub was busy (Bank Holiday) with a great atmosphere but got a table for two. Hotel room had everything we needed complete with coffee machine and extra water. Bathroom was well stocked with toiletries: shower gel, shampoo and conditioner. Iron and iron and ironing board along with plenty of hanging space. Very comfortable room and spacious. Staff were lovely, helpful and friendly. Recommend.

There was nothing to dislike.

Amazing - immaculate, comfortable Warm, great pillows

Nothing - we stayed on the Queen Mary room... top of the stairs - all 67 of them ... the view across London was worth . Best view in East London

Very good. One small consideration would be a small kettle as water for tea from the coffee pod machine was not hot enough. Also would be a nice touch to offer a small discount on food in the restaurant downstairs ie:10%

Very clean, quiet and comfortable

Minor points about the bathroom door sticking but not a big issue

Cleanness was spotless. The reception guy was very polite and took as to the room, which is much appreciated. For the amount of money you get everything that you need.

I liked everything

The room was nice and clean - decent shower and a reasonable view. But it was on the top floor!

It was on the very top floor and with suitcases that was a little tricky. We arrived on a Saturday night and the pub noise carried up to the room. I thought it was a bit pricey and can't understand why Monday night was much more than either Saturday or Sunday - 124 as opposed to 74 and 64.

Lovely room and lovely staff

No toothpaste

Nice decor, comfortable bed, nice shower.

No breakfast available. No plug in basin. Safe was broken. No mirror in the bedroom so couldn't use hairdryer in front of a mirror. Lighting was poor so couldn't read In bed.

Very easy to get to, rooms were a good size and no hassle with access.

Lovely staff, comfy beds, all the facilities needed in the room, clean and spacious enough for two people, cozy room.

Room was very clean and comfortable and located in a very accessible place

The stairs can be noisy depending on who is walking on them
