Golden Lion Hotel, St Ives

Improve This Listing

The Golden Lion Hotel, Eatery and Coffee House is a 400 year old grade II listed former coaching inn. It is reportedly haunted by two ghosts. Now a modern hotel which was renovated by the new owners in July 2017 including the opening of a new bar, restaurant and reception area. The hotel offers 27 rooms all en-suite. The Cromwell Room is available for private functions.

There is one regular real ale and another changing beer that is usually from the local Papworth Brewery. Food is served all day from midday, the varied menu prepared by the resident chef. There is also a snack menu available in the bar area.

Historic Interest

A hotel has stood on this site for many years. Originally it was a coaching inn with a balconied courtyard but it has been much modified. At one time it traded as The Commercial Hotel when it was operated by the Great Northern Railway in the days when St Ives had a railway service (see photograph displayed in the entrance).
