I needed to be in Basingstoke for work so booked The Red Lion. It has a free car park at the rear of the hotel. There is a bar at the front which I didn't use. My room (49) was spacious and clean and the bed was comfortable. The lady on reception and the breakfast staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast room is nice and bright with a good selection of items. I've stayed here three times now and would stay again.

The checking in was efficient, friendly and quick. The room was spacious snd clean and the bed was comfortable. No fridge or coffee machine but it is 3* and they had irons and hairdryers that you can ask for. Great value and very central

Excellent staff, very helpful and courteous. Stayed for 2 nights and room was cleaned each day with fresh towels. Very easy parking. Only downside was the bed mattress was lumpy and uncomfortable. WiFi was excellent and the shower was strong and hot which is always nice.

I had a lovely stay at the Red Lion. My travel plans got changed, but the staff were incredibly accommodating and immediately put me at ease - couldn't do enough for me which is always appreciated. The rooms themselves are very cozy and comfortable - I particularly liked the abundance of bird paintings and prints as decor, they were genuinely nice surprise. The shower was a particular highlight, two different showerheads, great water pressure and some lovely complimentary shower gel and conditioner. As I was staying over a weekend, the hotel staff took the courtesy of warning about potential noise from the nearby high street, however this was a non-issue during my stay - once the window was shut, I put my head down to sleep with no issues whatsoever. I would quite gladly stay at the Red Lion again next time I'm in Basingstoke, the place has a real charm and character to it and the service was genuinely excellent.
