Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about The Red Lion Eaton from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Red Lion Eaton offers a comfortable experience, with many guests enjoying the convenient location near the UEA and finding the double rooms, complete with separate bathrooms, to be spotless. The excellent meals are a highlight, from the amazing pre-booked dinners with top-quality ingredients served in a cozy atmosphere near the fire, to the epic 'residents breakfast'. Some guests have noted the proximity to the Waitrose distribution depot can lead to early morning noise, but overall, guests find the inn lovely and friendly.

steep stairs early deliveries
the breakfast was very nice. it was a good start to the day.
The stairs to the room were quite steep. i found it a bit difficult to manage them with my luggage. also, the noise from deliveries early in the morning was a bit disruptive. I could hear the trucks.

loose biscuits bubbled flooring
I found some issues with the room i stayed in. The provided shortbread biscuits were loose in a jar. They did not come in a packet. The bathroom flooring bubbled up, SO it became a trip hazard (i nearly fell!).

Excellent Experience

attentive service comfortable bed delicious food
The staff provided friendly, attentive, and efficient service. I found a large choice of food of very good quality. The bus stop located just across the road offered a quick route to the city. The room was spotlessly clean. The bed and linen were lovely. The pub and hosts were fabulous. The beds were really comfortable. The shower worked well. The food was delicious.
The wifi signal did not reach my room. There was a certain amount of noise on the roof space over my head. The room is situated by a fairly busy road, so I heard traffic early on
