Best Western Lion Hotel

Well we stayed here whilst going to a wedding near Newark. I emailed ahead of our visit to tell them my wife was disabled. They called me and changed iur room to one just across from the lift to save her walking down corridors. The room was really hot ! Even with the windows open and a fan was still too hot. We were going out to the wedding in the afternoon so didnt have to stay in the room too long. We had a good breakfast on the first morning a good spread included in the deal. We went to reception and ask for a different room without the heat. Thet changed the room straight away and the room we got was an upgraded room with air conditioning. It was lovelly on the second floor near the lift. It was a lovely room big seperate sette area fridge and the bathroom was really nice. Wish we would of got this room on the first night. They dont have any disabled parking here but we did get a space on the sunday ok. Overall our stay was a good experience. One thing we missed the cooked breakfast on the monday as it finished 1 hour earlier on the monday. I would reccomend the groupon deal any time. Enjoy great value ! less

Looks amazing, rooms basic and need renewal. The staff look like they’re miserable and need to gain a spirit. The food was amazing but over priced. The bar was scenic and had a lovely atmosphere but too over priced less

Was traveling to visit a friend in Worksop for the weekend and stayed in city center. The hotel was great. Location was perfect for my needs. Stayed in room #217, at the end of the second floor. Very quiet. Room was fine, comfortable. Nice bathroom. Staff was courteous and friendly. The bar is very nice and fun. I would stay here again. less

Although the room is dated it was spotless and had everything you could ask for, the fridge in our room was a life saver, we had a great nights sleep, the staff were all very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble, great hotel would recommend it 100%. less

This was my second stay at The Lion Hotel with a Groupon. This time I was in The Dukeries suite and it was lush! Huge bedroom with sofa, table and a mini fridge to keep my soya milk in. There was a separate dressing room and a spacious bathroom. Great to luxuriate in after cycling around Sherwood. The staff are all friendly and helpful. Breakfast is a buffet-style with both continental and cooked food available. There was lots of cereal, pastries, toast etc plus fresh and tinned fruit and yoghurt to start. Then the usual cooked breakfast items to choose from. On the second night of my stay, ghee was a wedding party in tge hotel with a disco and I was dreading it going on all night, but it was quiet by 10.30pm and I slept well. The hotel is located just at the top of the pedestrianised shopping area and the town parks are within easy walking distance. It's conveniently situated for cycling to Clumber Park where you can pick up sustrans route 6 to explore Sherwood and the surrounding area. The only little niggle is the limited on site parking, but I suppose that is inevitable in an old coaching Inn. I have really enjoyed my stays here and hope to be back before too long. less
