Lovely atmosphere, very helpful and courteous staff. Easy check in. Breakfast was fantastic, choice of buffet and cooked plenty of tea and coffee and juices. Unfortunately our stay was for one night only, would love to have stayed longer,we will definitely be back. Also a lovely swimming pool and jacuzzi.

Lovely friendly staff. Nice breakfast. Room (28) needs updating. Shower dreadful - no pressure! Needed window open because of heat and therefore room was noisy. I suppose, in fairness, we could have asked for a fan. Convenient location with parking on site.

Great location in the middle of town; with on site parking. Very friendly and efficient staff, who cared about their clientele. Room was to a very good standard. Swimming pool - remember you need to book a time slot in advance. Breakfast - good choice. Overall good value for money - for the time of year - August - would recommend.

A hotel in a historic building in the heart of Lyme Regis. It's close to the sea and restaurants. We ate one night at the hotel and it was good. There is also a pool, sauna and jacuzzi which are on a reservation basis so you get your own private facilities for an hour. The breakfast is in a fantastic hall.

Disliked: Staff & service
Over priced for what it was
To be met with blurting out the cost in front of my partner wasn't a good start. After a six hour drive I get told we have to book breakfast time and everyday !!!!!!!. Room good, breakfast lovely but staff at reception surly and borderline snotty/rude. Very overpriced for what it was , nearly a grand for four nights , not even a small fridge in the room. Would we stay there again ? No Would we stay at Lyme Regis again ? definately

The Royal Lion is a good tradional pub hotel, much as you'd expect in a seaside town, very central and close to the beach and amenities. I had one issue with noise throughout the night from a boiler, I was in room 26; if I stayed again I would check to make sure the noise had been sorted.

Perfect location but if your room is at the front of the building its extremely noisy. Ned is a queen size, no air con just a fan. No power shower, more power using the tap!

Convenient for everything Lyme Regis has to offer. Enquire about rooms if you have mobility issues. Good beer and choice of food. Would have preferred separate areas for people with dogs when eating as some of them can be somewhat smelly!
