That hotel have to be blocked they are scammers.

The hotel is full with council housing people. I was waiting there to get refund or some explanation by email to have some proof of what there was people from council housing and they didn't respond. When I reported to the hotels.com , and the hotels.com contact with them they said what the hotel is working normally . Do not book at this hotel they are scammers

Not a great experience

Room was very dated, the mattress was a cheap thin mattress and springs were noisy everytime you moved. The bathroom was again in need of repair. The whole toilet pan moved everytime you sat on it.

Friendly staff and short walk to the centre of Wisbech. Room could be improved by the addition of a small fridge and surface/table in bathroom to unpack toiletries.

Only stayed one night in a single room. Appreciated the fan. Shower good but en suite was a bit small. All staff I met were friendly helpful and smiley. You could do with better signs directing visitors on how exactly to get to rear of building. (I went the wrong way through the car park!)

Great stay at the White Lion in Wisbech

This hotel has recently reopened under new management after undergoing a 6 month refit. We had a very comfortable stay, over three nights. The breakfast was great and the staff very friendly and they gave great service. Would definitely go back again.
