Guest Rating: 
3.7 / 5
Situated in the heart of Basingstoke, the accommodation harmoniously combines the charm and individuality of a historic coaching inn with the facilities and modern convenience of a modern hotel.
Facing the old, traffic-free part of the town centre, the hotel enjoys a privileged position with the stunning Festival Place just beyond the free private car park to the rear, and Basingstoke Train Station a 5-minute walk away.
Providing quality accommodation, having been refurbished over the past few years to offer an extensive choice of rooms, The Red Lion is also an excellent venue for meetings, conferences, weddings, dinners and parties. For relaxation and dining, there is a comfortable street-side café-bar and restaurant, with a part covered outdoor courtyard.
A civil marriage license and a large suite close to the part covered courtyard make the Red Lion a popular wedding venue.
The hotel has a restaurant and bar, with both a snack and an extensive a la carte menu available.
