Have not had breakfast yet but it’s a box with yogurt fruit muffin. Our room is about 300 years old and we love it. Original floors etc. my wife loves history and old well taken care of buildings. The Salty Days Restaurant next door is fantastic. Scallop dinner and Cod Sandwich were excellent. Checked in with Janie and it was a real pleasure. We are in mid 70’s so she took our luggage up to our room. Just a really nice young person that enhances your experience here. If we come back this way will stay again.

Charming but noisy

The Red Lion Inn is very charming, no question. The restaurant/pub is very good. My main issue is that the rooms are VERY noisy. All of the common areas are pre-war era wood planked flooring, including the staircases. They are beautiful, but they are crazy loud. This is an old place, so there is no sound deadening in the rooms. Bring your ear plugs. Second complaint is that the rooms are ridiculously dark. There was one floor lamp and one wall sconce for my entire room. Forget about doing any work. It is a cute place, and would stay here again, but just be aware.

A nicely remodeled inn with history

I stayed for one day at this hotel. It's an older building that's been completely refurbished. The room was excellent, with a comfortable bed and clean, well-equipped bathroom. My biggest complaint is that the parking lot isn't easy to get to. I decided to try to make one trip from my car to my room, which proved to be a wrong decision on my part. Because of my zeal to get to my room (I was anxious to watch the Red Sox game), I missed a step and fell on my way. I wasn't injured, but I filled out an incident report with the person at the desk, who could not have been more helpful. When I left, I drove my car out to the front (no on-street parking from 2AM-6AM) and loaded my car that way. Cohasset is a lovely New England town. The Inn has an interesting history and the refurbished room in which I stayed was just what I needed.

I stayed in this property for two nights. Things I liked about my stay: - First, I would like to say that the jacuzzi tub in my room was very clean and made my stay so much better. - I also really appreciated the waters in my room for my stay. - The staff had a boxed breakfast available for me each morning to take to work (business trip). Things that I didn't like about my stay: - Parking - there needs to be signage to show where guests should be parking and how to get into the building. - The pool - at check in the woman said the pool should be ready the next day and to ask tomorrow. The next day I asked the person in charge at the desk if the pool was ready and she LAUGHED at me and told me no. I understand the no, but laughing at me for asking was uncalled for and rude. - I had brought food back to the room and placed it on top of the mini fridge. Within 15 minutes my food was COVERED IN ANTS. Needless to say everything got thrown out. - When I got to the room the TV wasn't even hooked up and I had to get someone up to connect it. - As a person with a BiPAP machine it was darn near impossible to get to the plugs behind the headboard to plug in my machine. - There was no room cleaning done during my stay, nor was it stated anywhere that cleaning would not be done unless asked.

I can’t say enough nice things about the property and the staff. From the moment we arrived everything was top-notch. Michelle was extra helpful and very pleasant to deal with. The inn keeper Andrew was ultra professional, and was helper even prior to our stay with assisting with our reservation. I would recommend this property to anyone traveling in the Boston/ Cohasset area. 5 stars isn’t a high enough rating.
