When my party arrived the pub was closed and the only access was up a steep fire escape at the side of the property. This was self check in and the owners were impossible to get hold off. The WIFI did not work despite having instructions on who to use in the room, the hub was not available. More serious one of the beds collapsed on my petite niece at midnight on evening. They provided a different room but these beds were both broken in the same way. I booked through booking.com. We left in the end after a long journey there and had to return home. The owner is avoiding any communication with me, I have four messages with no reply, I left two answer phone messages and finally spoke with their staff member on a different number (which I found on the owners Facebook post) he knew about the situation and said he would pass the message on. I paid the initial balance which I am waiting on a refund and since this time my bank has had to stop my bank account due to fraudulent transactions being attempted by this business.

We would not recommend this hotel at all. We booked and paid for a twin room, when we arrived to our room it wasn't clean, they was a smelly damp towel rolled up and stuffed behind the toilet,the shower was cold water only, the single beds had broken slats and the bedding looked like it had been screwed up in a ball then put on the bed. Extremely disappointed with the stay. We called to say we had no hot water and eventually received a text saying to use another shower down the hall way!!. Since our stay we have tried on many occasions to contact them but never had a reply. The photos on there Web page don't look like the rooms at all.

Stayed there for four weeks they been charging me each week automatically from my credit card which was alright, but had to cancel my stay once more than 48 hours until check in for the following week and they didn’t refund money after many text messages. To be honest hotel rooms aren’t clean. When you book a room with them they will send you details with self-check in and room number, so once I came there to check in and my room already been taken by other person,so had to wait until someone come and open another room. I had to stay there,because it was the cheapest place to stay for that time,but better to pay more and less headache. Not recommend at all.

I can't begin to describe, let alone allocate stars for this place. If you are looking for the Golden Lion, it isn't there ! It is called the Middlewich Taphouse. Access , after traversing a blind corner on a one way, fast piece of road, you are greeted by a fire escape with an extremely high bottom step. The rooms are beyond basic with optional cobwebs and unironed bedlinen. One of our party had a room that hadn't been serviced after the previous occupant and we were advised to take the bedding from the spare bed in the room upstairs and service it ourselves. In all honesty, no matter how cheap, I could not recommend.

Very basic room, room smelt of damp, leaking toilet cistern,, floors dirty, shower door hanging off, which I fixed, and shower head dribbled out

Stayed in room 2 and cannot fault the accommodation. Great shower and double bed plus single. Downstairs is closed for renovation which may be a good thing as there was no noise. Great price and no complaints. Would book again. Can't comment on service as all self check in but drinks and kettle provided as well as a decent sized TV on the wall.

We took 2 rooms, and were fairly informed in advance that the pub was shut whilst being refurbed. Nice comms from host up front. This is definitely NOT suitable for anyone who struggles with stairs. The rooms (6 & 35) were basic, but very clean. Beds comfy, but a little soft. Shower in 6 was really good, very powerful and hot. Less powerful in 35. Rooms were a tad cold, but duvets nice and warm. Could hear a little bit from other guests but nothing that kept us awake. Towels were quite small. Served us well for a quick overnighter and good value. The StrEAT place in carpark was much better than I imagined, we had a lovely breakfast there, and Morrisons just across road.

Room was clean and tidy, with a good shower. Good value for money, very happy would be happy enough to stay again..Mark

Great priced rooms, fantastic showers, and a lovely full english breakfast, would recommend 👍

Best value hotel rooms in Middlewich! & fabulous breakfast from StrEAT. Highly recommended.

Nice place to stay. The room was clean with plenty of facilities and the village was very pretty.

Excellent room for an overnight stay but very cold as heating was off overnight and only a thin summer duvet was provided and no blankets. Very clean!

Great location for Oulton Park , amazing value for money, just wished there was a mirror in our bathroom , definitely would come again.

Very basic accommodation only, but that is clear on the details. Not at all bad for the price. Breakfast from the van in the car park was pretty good.

Clean ,well kept room , complimentary shampoo or body wash wouldn't go a miss though ,as was only here for one night so was caught off guard ,when I saw the bathroom had none

If it were possible I would give 0 stars. Booking in was over the phone and awkward. Room was basic but appeared OK for the price. Just after midnight water started pouring into the room through an electrical fitting in the ceiling and then the power blew. Tried several times to phone the contact number without success. The water eventually stopped but with a soaking floor and no power I ended up sleeping in my car. To this day, neither my daughter (who made the booking nor I have received any response to numerous calls and emails. Management has truly gone to ground.
