Staff members provide a fantastic service
The service provided by the Golden Lion Hotel is virtually
immaculate - according to the general sentiments of past guests. The hotel's
personnel have all been labelled as incredibly friendly, sociable and accommodating.
positive:
Rooms clean and well-appointed
The hotel's rooms were commended by most previous visitors for their overall quality. As well as being apparently styled in a contemporary fashion, the rooms were regularly said to be spotlessly clean.
positive:
Meals at a high standard
Despite the prices being described as a little expensive on occasion, the food was a popular aspect with many that have stayed at the Golden Lion Hotel. The meals and, in particular, complimentary breakfast were highly rated for the most part.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Rooms plagued by inadequate soundproofing
Numerous past visitors were disappointed about the soundproofing of the rooms at the Golden Lion Hotel. While it was noted to be in a quiet location, the noise of others staying at the hotel was a prevalent problem at times, and was seen as due to the supposedly thin walls of the rooms.
negative:
Beds not free from complaint
Although they were not an issue with the large majority, a notable amount of former guests were critical about the hotel's beds. From disruptive creaking sounds to the mattresses not being to everyone's tastes, various room-related problems have been reported.
negative:
Rural locations means little to do in the area
Whilst it was generally considered to be in a picturesque and peaceful village, the location of the Golden Lion Hotel was not seen as one of its best features by some previous visitors. This was typically attributed to the lack of attractions, shops and restaurants within walking distance from the accommodation.
