We booked to stay at the last minute at The Black Lion. We chose them because they had vacancies and were happy to welcome our two labradoodles. Hotels either don't take dogs, put up with 'em or love 'em. This Hotel loves them. The owner and staff were a pleasure to join for the weekend. Good value, comfy rooms, good... More

Our Coast to Coast Group spent two nights at the Black Lion in April 2013 giving us a welcome rest day in the wonderful town of Richmond. The welcome was friendly and helpful but the rooms were only adequate - quite small and basically furnished. The service was good and the food was excellent, both at dinner and breakfast. The...

We stayed as a family for a night in April. Rooms were clean, staff friendly. Location is good, just off the market square in Richmond. Things that could be improved. Furniture in the rooms isn't great and we had a very 'springy' mattress with lots of noise - BUT that aside the room was fine for a night. Our bathroom... More

I spent a cold sleepness night here. The matress was either very old or of poor quality as you could feel the springs in the matress as you laid on the bed. I had to pad it out with towels and anything to hand. The breakfast was okay but what I was given was not what I had ordered. There... More

Stayed on Friday night as we went to see a play at the lovely Georgian Theatre. Ideal location in the centre of Richmond with car parking. One minute away from theatre. Staff very obliging, rooms very clean and excellent early bird menu which was perfect for a pre meal theatre visit. Hearty breakfast served on spotlessly laundered white linen table... More
