Black Lion Hotel Richmond

Very welcoming staff, cosy atmosphere, good food.

Pros: Great central location with free parking, homely and cosy, well stocked bar. Good value bar meals. Lovely, helpful staff. We mentioned on our way out for a walk that our radiators didn’t seem to be working in our room and when we returned a short while later this issue was resolved. We were also assured that if they couldn’t fix the issue with the radiators, they would supply us with heaters (these weren’t needed). Our bedroom had nice decor and bedding was clean. A nice range of tea/coffee/biscuits were provided. There was adequate storage and hanging space. Lovely dining room for breakfast and a good range of breakfast options. We love that the hotel is dog friendly 💙.

Cons: While our bedroom appeared clean, the en-suite would have benefitted from a deeper clean. The toilet, sink and shower tray had obviously been cleaned however the sealant in the shower was mouldy, around the perimeter of the shower tray had a buildup of dirt. There were cobwebs on the ceiling and around the edging of the en-suite floor looked unclean.

Pros: Lovely staff, very friendly. Comfortable bed Breakfast was great

Cons: A little but too hot better than being cold though

Just perfect two nights

Pros: We when for our wedding anniversary and everything was excellent 👍

Excellent!!! 💯

Pros: Great dog friendly pub with fabulous staff and good food at good prices

Cons: Room decor is a bit dark

Mid Week Staycation

Pros: Lovely hotel with parking, great warm room with comfy bed, large bath and lots of hot water, and coffe/tea making facilities. Bar food when we arrived was lovely and reasonably priced, with a lunchtime offer of a drink included with meal. All staff were very friendly. Good selection of cold breakfast items, juice, tea and coffee. Would recommend staying here. I understand it is to be refurbished this month. Great location for all that Richmond has to offer, even a lovely cinema.

Cons: The English breakfast - streaky bacon undercooked and rest of the breakfast deep fried and over cooked.

We had a great time and will be going back.

Pros: The food was excellent, the rooms were in need of modernisation but the staff told us this was starting in February, the bed was comfortable and the staff very friendly.

Cons: The room we had looked out into a very small backyard and we had scaffolding at the window

Excellent pub in great location

Pros: The location is ideal. Car parking available on site. Pub lovely and cosy. Bed very comfortable and room very clean. Nice and warm accommodation and good breakfast 😋

Great place to stay can highly reccomend

Pros: Just a really great place to stay, great bar food, lovely staff. Can't really fault it at all

Cons: Nothing really

Yorkshire break

Pros: Old world charm, with a nice atmosphere, central location, right in the town centre with parking on site. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The food menu was varied and a little different, we had an evening meal which was served hot and was tasty, there was a little mix up with our order but the staff were apologetic and rectified this, offering a free drink to compensate.

Cons: There was an issue with the hot water, we had none the first night but the staff called in an engineer and things were fixed by the following morning.

Perfect for what I wanted. Right in the middle of Richmond, dog friendly with free parking.

Pros: All the staff were very helpful, the food in the evening was lovely and breakfast (veggie) was exceptional. I took my two small dogs and the hotel were delighted to see them too.

Cons: The hot water broke but they called out a plumber and got it fixed by morning. These things happen. Parking was a little tight but I have a quite big car.
