Clean and comfortable

Stayed in one of several bungalows in the grounds of the pub. It was clean, spacious, had lovely hot water and a plentiful hospitality tray. Huge comfortable bed.

Great experience 👍

We stayed in a room in an annex at the rear of the pub, nice and quiet. The room was spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. We had dinner at the pub and it was delicious. Staff were welcoming snd friendly. Would definitely stay here again

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.

Comfortable stay in lovely village

Really generous size rooms. Great location in the middle of the village but with the rooms set back from the road so nice and quiet. Great dog friendly pub with good food and selection of drinks

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
Kenneth, 1-night trip

Nice size room. Staff helpful. Excellent cafe across the street. Perfect for breakfast.
kathryn, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Stayed for 3 nights, the room was pleasant, warm and quiet, I didn't eat in the pub itself as I felt the atmosphere a little unwelcoming, however they do offer a good range of real ales!
Mike, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

decent stay

had a good stay at the red Lion, the rooms were comfy with everything you need. If we were being being picky i think the cleaning could have been better. parking is ok and the pub is really nice in a village with a few pubs and restaurants.

Lovely property in a quiet suburb of Cambridge with easy bus access into the city. A shame there were no breakfast facilities
Christine, 1-night trip

Nice pub stay in a nice village

The accommodation was really nice, large room with a large shower ensuite. The carpet had quite a few mark's on it but apart from that it was nice and clean. The pub is nice and there's plenty of places to eat in Histon. Please note the pub doesn't do breakfast, but there are a dew places to get breakfast. We would definitely stay again, it's a nice place and a quaint village.

we needed better info on the velux window system as the room was very warm in the evening ie unable to understand the wall mounted control having said that ,an enjoyable stay.
alfred, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

In need of a deep clean

Carpets and shower room would benefit from a deep clean and the cracks in the walls a fill and paint. Otherwise a decent room to stay in whilst visiting family.

Smart and tidy room with polite staff

Very nice stay, really warm welcome from pub staff. Neat, tidy, fairly modern and well kept room. I arrived fairly late and was too tired to sit in the pub for a drink but I'd have really liked to sit and have a drink as it looked super interesting.
