The Red Lion is an ideal location to book a meal or accommodation for your stay in Norwich. In close proximity are the University of East Anglia UEA, the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, Norwich Research Park, The John Innes Centre JIC and The Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts.

The City of Norwich successfully combines modern sophistication with historic interest and great shopping! The skyline is dominated by the twin attractions of the magnificent Norman cathedral and the castle, now a museum and gallery. More modern buildings include the new Millenium Library at the Forum with its spectacular glass frontage.

A diverse selection of shops include individual specialists such as Colmans Mustard Shop found in the victorian Royal Arcade to the shopping malls Chapelfield and Castle Mall. National chains include House of Fraser, John Lewis and Marks & Spencer.

Norwich is also the regional centre for nightlife. The prestigious Theatre Royal showcases top class productions, while the area from Tombland to Riverside provides a club land experience enjoyed by the young and young at heart.

The city centre is only a short drive away or, if you are staying with us, why not use the frequent local bus service?
