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.

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.

If you like staying in a place, that is unique from its itinerary, whose staff is incredible friendly and helpful in any way possible and if you looking for a good breakfast, then this is the place to be. Although the Black Lion seems to be a bit far away from all Westminster attractions, you are there in no time by Jubilee overground or bus (bus stops right in front of the hotel, tube is a short walk away). Rooms are nicely renovated with a lot of station to the detail. We had dinner in the pub, but there are lots of opportunities to have international food around the area. Also lots of smaller shops in the neighborhood. The team there is incredible friendly and you can feel, that they love, what they are doing. We would highly recommend this place.

Brand new charming, adorable, boutique hotel room. Breakfast was wonderful. Staff was very, very friendly! Metro right down the street. Only downside is is we were on the second floor and there is no elevator. Worked out OK we need the exercise!

Another lovely stay at The Black Lion

Lovely two night stay in a well decorated room. On the second floor and the stairs up are quite steep and shallow despite being wide. Hard going after a day and f walking round London and standing at a Taylor Swift concert! Room 7 is well appointed. Bed is firm and comfortable with plentiful pillows. Shower pressure and temperature is great on both the rainfall and detachable shower head. Dyson fan provided too. Breakfast is continental with a wide variety to choose from. Parfait was a highlight with a granola topping. Coffee is tasty and the perfect start to the day.

We were so impressed with how beautiful the accommodations were. It is all brand new and felt very luxurious. They were quick to make sure we felt comfortable and would immediately resolve any (minor) problems that arose. The rooms were immaculately clean and they provided amenities that were expected (shampoo/conditioner, hair dryer, steamer, etc). The breakfast included warm croissants (I think we liked them better than most of the cafes we visited in Paris), chocolate croissants, cereal, bread and jam, ham, cheese, fruit, yogurt, juice, coffee, tea and my favorite- hot chocolate. We also had Sunday Roast there and it was delicious. It was close to the underground line as well as Hop On Hop Off buses and next to a park. We would definitely stay here again.

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!

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.
