Beautiful, modern accommodations in the setting of a historic pub filled with antiques and carpentry of a bygone era. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the food was great down in the restaurant. Perfect breakfast provided every morning. We will be back!

Just perfect

This accommodation was perfection. Very close to a tube station, with lots of local amenities, restraints and shops close by. The pub was beautiful, staff very friendly and breakfast was fresh with plenty of selection. Overall perfect

What an amazing find this was! The pub was beautiful, full of original features and the room we stayed in was immaculate. Good air con in a heatwave, really comfy bed and I loved the shower. The only downside was 2 flights of stairs but I would absolutely stay here again.

Super handy for the Jubillee line, especially if you’re going to Lords. The staff were really friendly and continental breakfast buffet is just enough. The bar atmosphere is welcoming and bar food is lovely too. Booked again for next year !!!

Third stay at the Black Lion. Gorgeous rooms, great beds and they even have wash cloths. Sumptuous and delicious breakfast and pleasant, helpful hosts. Rooms can be warm in hot weather, but it appears that they are working on solving that problem. Neighborhood looks rough, but is actually quite safe. Reasonably convenient to Underground. I'll go back for fourth stay, next time in London.

The service from management and staff was outstanding. The food was great quality and the room was very comfortable. This was a fabulous place to stay and we would recommend staying here. The transport options are very convenient with the bus stop immediately outside the facility. The tube station is within a very short walking distance.

Fantastic gem of a place

This is an absolute gem of a place. Very easy to get to on the tube Jubilee line). The pub is a beautiful, old, large establishment with plenty of character. We had a warm welcome on arrival by helpful staff. Our room was very nicely appointed, comfortable and roomy. We had our evening meal in the pub rather than the restaurant room, as it was lively and buzzy. The menu offered range of Indian cuisine which was exceptional. The continental breakfast was varied and plateful, and again of the highest quality. This is a real find, and is on our accomadation list for when we next come to London

Everything about this facility was fantastic! The staff went above and beyond for my birthday, the food was exceptional, the bar and food was fantastic. The atmosphere was old-school pub, and I loved it! The only downfall was the city location, which was a few minutes walk from the tube, but very dirty between the hotel and transportation services. That was the only downer of the whole experience! The pub and residence was fantastic!

Walk from the station to the hotel was a little worrying as something involving many shouting people and police was taking place. (By time we left for the evening it had all cleared and was quiet the rest of the stay). Checked in at the main pub bar, was given our key and taken round the building by the very friendly lady. They have a chiller on the landing to help yourself to water which was a lovely touch. Decor throughout was beautiful. Room clean and tidy, lovely spacious and functional bathroom. Good cupboard space and desk with tea/coffee facilities. Bed felt a little hard initially but was actually very comfy to sleep on. Was advised the pub didn't close till midnight (Saturday) so was. Little concerned about noise. When we got back we heard the bar music as we climbed the stairs but once in our room barely heard any sounds at all. I was very surprised at how quiet it all was. We overlooked the park area at the back. Breakfast was helpful yourself, continental style with fresh juice, tea & coffee. Overall a lovely one night stay, hotel great and all staff we encountered were helpful and genuinely friendly!
