"I was a little concerned looking at other reviews but honestly, this hotel was Lovely, clean and really comfortable. Very central and staff so helpful. Yes, there are some areas that are a little worn but unless you are really picky, I’m not sure they are enough to cause any concern. Priority for me is cleanliness, which it was, nice team members, which they were and comfortable room for great night sleep. Shower was brilliant and have no complaints at all. Keep on doing all you are doing. Thank you for a lovely stay. We will be back."

"The hotel met my expectations. Clean and tidy. Bed very comfortable. Staff very pleasant. Request a room at the back of the hotel on the 2nd floor to ensure no noise from the road. I am a light sleeper I did hear my neighbour coughing in the morning but it wasnt to early. The Bistro/Bar located next to the hotel was very nice, I didnt eat in the evening bit it was very popular with locals and travellers. The breakfast the next day was exceptional!!!! The choice was excellent and all good quality food - well done to the Chef and team!!!!"

The Royal Lion Hotel

8/10 Good
"The Royal Lion Hotel is a nice place to stay. It is in a very good position to explore Lyme Regis from. The staff are very nice and helpful and friendly. The food was good for me as I have some food intolerances and I could always find something tasty to eat. I hope they light the fires in the bar soon as it is getting chilly and a fire is so comforting. We had a very nice room with access to a garden and seating. Our bed was very comfortable and we slept well. A lovely shower with plenty of hot water as well. I also like the traditional rooms on the upper floors as they are more in keeping with the age of the building. I hope the Royal Lion is not modernised too much. We want to stay there because of the Tradition of the building, the décor including furniture and the comfort. Please don't modernise too much. We will be back."
