Giving it an average because it served a purpose. The staff were excellent. Very comfortable bed. Breakfast was ok but limited as a continental. Room condition was "well used" and needs some TLC. Lots of cobwebs when I walked in the room. Close to a busy road with noise throughout the night

Great for Duxford Air Shows
Overnight stay to be near Duxford for airshow. Couldn't have picked a better pub/hotel. Only 17 mins from hotel to show on quiet road. Rooms were high quality, large & recently modernised. My room had shower over roll top bath but father-in-laws had walk in shower. If unsteady on feet, ask for separate shower. Food in pub was excellent & reasonably priced. We skipped breakfast as they don't start serving until 9am on a Sunday & we wanted to get off to the show. We were offered continental breakfast in a bag that would be delivered to the room. Declined offer but it looked pretty good. Great location if visiting Duxford museum or the air shows & not far from Cambridge etc

Excellent mid week stay, the rooms were clean and nicely furnished, the bed was super comfortable. We had a delicious meal in the restaurant and the staff were faultless. I would thoroughly recommend The Old Red Lion.

Rooms and public areas are somewhat dated. Continental Breakfast left in the room was poor to say the least OK for a one night stay Website unclear as indicates check in only from 6pm whereas the pub is open all day

Disappointing is an understatement!!
I travel a lot so booked a week’s stay at this particular hotel because it looked okay, was reasonably priced which included breakfast and was near where i needed to be. After arriving late on the Sunday night and having not the best of sleeps, I had to leave on the Monday due to a family emergency. So I explained this to the hotel and asked if I could have a refund for my remaining nights and was simply told “no”…. No refunds…. I asked again and was told again, it’s a no. Because I booked this via hotels.com I assumed they would help me and they tried…. But they, like me got a “no” from the hotel… which is disappointing to say the least when you take into account the reason I had to leave. I was told that they even rented out the room I had left… Needless to say I won’t be staying here again, I won’t be recommending this hotel to anyone in my network and I won’t be giving them a good review…. Because i didn’t feel as though I was a valued customer….
