The Old Black Lion

We stayed here for one night due to filming in the area. We didn’t get to eat breakfast unfortunately. The accommodation was perfectly situated and the staff member very welcoming. The shower was great!

Nothing! The floors were uneven but that was to be expected with such an old property.

The room was Ok, but nothing special, and not particularly clean around the shower and toilet area. It was located in an annexe across the way from the pub.

I was locked out of the pub on the second morning, along with other guests from the annexe. We were let in by other guests staying in the main hotel/pub, but there were no staff present, and we were locked out of the pub/restaurant area and standing around in the corridor for 20 minutes or so wondering what the hell was going on. When a staff member did arrive, they said they were having issues, but didn't explain what. Breakfast was therefore very late and I was late for work, and I have never eaten 2 poached eggs on toast so quickly - and was then charged £12 for the pleasure! Because I was running late, I forgot to ask for a VAT receipt when I checked out and I called and left messages with staff several times in the three weeks after, asking them to send me a copy so I could claim back the cost of the stay from work. Despite promising to do so, they never did, and eventually my worked processed the claim without a VAT receipt, but they were not happy.

Rien de particulier Parking pratique

Chambre petite

Convenient for Town Centre Parking ok

Difficult access to room Awful bathroom Charged extra £25 for booking through booking.com Bed linen had numerous black specks on It . Had we seen this before retiring would have asked for the bed linen to be replaced. Restaurant over described on web site. Just pub grub.

The location was perfect for exploring Hay-on-Wye

The room in the annex was quite tired and the breakfast was not well cooked.

Great location on Offas dyke

Shower tray filled up and overflowed

Good parking, close to town

Room small but clean and comfortable. Bathroom floor rather slippery. Breakfast was excellent.
