Black Lion Hotel

A beautiful well maintained property in an idyllic area. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Room was spacious, clean and well lit. Bathroom was well provided and clean. Even had an hot water bottle provided. Food was excellent both at dinner and at breakfast. Superb accommodation and will be back as soon as possible.

My daughter and I had a fantatic one night stay at the Black Lion. We stayed in a beautiful twin bedroom with on suite shower room and the standard of facilities and decoration etc. was excellent all round. The room was a good size and and clean with very comfy beds. Breakfast was included in the price and was cooked beautifully. We had an evening menu and selected from a good average menu that will suit all the family. This was was again beautifully cooked and at a good price point. Topping it all was the service from both John the owner and all his team. Oh, and the location was beautiful on the edge of the village by the river and handy for the coast, the main A55 road and access to the wonderful Welsh counrtyside including Snowdonia. Thank you John and team. We will definitely be back to stay for longer this time. Highly recommended.

good sized bedroom & everything provided. nothing was too much trouble for staff.

Stayed for a couple of nights here .This restaurant / pub with a few letting rooms upstairs, The location is great in a small valley village next to a river about 5 miles from Abergele which is just .off the north Wales expressway At Abergele there is a beach also near are Rhyl , Prestatyn , Colwyn Bay and Llandudno The Black Lion was a very comfortable homely place to stay and had everything needed is in the room . The staff were very warm and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble . The stay also included a full breakfast and we also ate here in the evening.. there a good choice at a reasonable price .

Found this fabulous hotel via trip advisor, great reviews, which are well deserved. Going on the Snowdon Mountain Railway but wanted to stay somewhere not too touristy. Our room had every thing you could want, wifi worked fine and the food in the restrarant, breakfast and dinner was excellent. John our host was a great source of local places to visit and there to help if required

We enjoyed a superb 2 night stay here. The hospitality of John and his team was first class, making us feel very welcome. The food was to die for, I had an amazing fillet steak on our first night, and, as other people have said, the Full Welsh Breakfast is huge and very tasty, and cereals, yoghurt and toast are also available. The village location is brilliant, also boasting another olde worlde pub in The Swan, and The Black Lion is within easy driving distance of local attractions such as Conwy, Colwyn Bay, Llandudno and the rest of Norh Wales. We will definitely be back.

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC The room was excellent - great size bedroom and bathroom, really comfy bed and pillows, bathroom had lots of great toiletries, spotlessly clean. Staff were great - the owner even introduced himself at dinner to check everything good - great level of service. Food was also really tasty. Would highly recommend staying at the hotel. It's only a short drive inland from the coast.

The friendly welcome from the owner and his staff the accomadation and food options

We had a lovely two night break, the room, breakfast and dinner were all excellent. John and the staff were all very welcoming and helpful. Many thanks to John for rearranging at short notice due to my illness. The hotel is in a quiet little village, where you can sit on picnic benches or walk by the river Elwy. It was so quiet at night and we slept well in the comfortable bed. The hotel is well placed for visiting the North Wales coast and many places of interest. We would definitely like to visit again.
