This was our third visit to the Black lion Hotel in 3 years, we were warmly welcomed, and nothing was too much trouble. I had the steak pie and my partner had the king prawn starter then the duck, which he claims is the best he has ever had ( and he is a very fussy eater). All the food... More

We have stayed at the Black Lion Hotel in Wales a number of times over the last few years and have always found it exceptional in every way. The food is wonderfully cooked and very reasonably priced. As per 'Chill Out' the hosts were kind and attentive even when busy and we have already booked again to visit this year... More

We have visited the Black Lion Hotel on numerous occasions for evening meal and have never come away from there disappointed, but last Saturday night we were. The place was full, and as far as we could see only one table for two and one table of four had ordered their food. We ordered our food, and waited 35 minutes... More

So sorry to hear that you had a bad experience at the Black.We had no idea that there were any problems with the food that evening.It was very busy however and there were more people seated in the lounge area. I do wish you had let someone know that you had a problem with anything on the night and we... More

We spend a really good time in the Black Lion Hotel. The room was spacious and really comfortable, and the restaurant offered delicious food. It's not far from the artificial lakes of Rheidol Valley, and very close to the Devil's Bridge, which are two beautiful places to go. Moreover, our host was really nice and made us feel like home....
