Black Lion Hotel

Short one night stop - friendly staff and a warm welcome! Room was large with a comfortable bed, wouldn't recommend for anyone with mobility problems as the stairs are quite narrow and steep and there were additional steps in our bedroom. Delicious breakfast!

Friendly staff and great menu choice

Really lovely place to stay to explore north Norfolk. Great quirky room with huge bed and fab food.

Lovely staff Easy check in Parking a bit of an issue but we parked on the road nearby

Overnight stay for Heritage Live gig at Sandringham. Little tricky to find in a beautiful, but tiny village, and with limited parking - paid-car park a short walk - but what a great find! Large room, huge comfortable bed, separate dressing room and spacious bathroom. Shower was good, but oddly positioned on bath I thought so had to angle a certain way. Best was a fab breakfast the next day, lots of choice on menu as long as like cooked stuff. Interesting village to explore, lots of history, perfectly located to visit beaches at Wells on the Sea and Holkam.

The Black Lion is a lovely characterful pub with comfortable rooms. We enjoyed our stay very much. The staff were pleasant and the food was delicious. Walsingham is a great place to stay with lots to see and buses running through the village to Fakenham and Wells.

Just steer clear.

Food was excellent. Fascinating history of the pub.

A cosy hotel in a beautiful part of the country

Friendly staff good food and comfortable accommodation

Alive with wasp's, needs sorting as its obviously been going on for a while. Food was reasonable En-suite was very small

Review for The Black Lion Hotel This was the third time my sister and I have visited The Black Lion Hotel, and once again we were warmly welcomed on arrival. We were met by two lovely gentlemen who could not do enough for us — they kindly took in our luggage (I am disabled) and carried it up to our room, settled us in, and made us feel so comfortable and looked after. Later, we came down for an incredible meal — your catering staff and chef are truly amazing, and the same two gentlemen were, once again, superb hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening. However, sadly, for the first time ever staying with you, the morning did not live up to expectations. When we came down for breakfast, there was no warm greeting — just a brief, rather rough hello. We had to carry our own luggage to the car while the girls behind the bar seemed more interested in playing with their hair than helping guests. When we returned to the breakfast room, no one showed us to a table, so we seated ourselves. We were downstairs by 10:30am, yet it wasn’t until nearly 11am that someone finally approached us. I watched, and what I believe was the manager — a blonde lady — seemed more focused on doing her hair and checking her appearance than attending to guests. There were positives: a lovely girl with red hair who served us, and a young girl on work experience — both were delightful and did their best. Unfortunately, our breakfast was a disaster. The food was burnt, dry, and frankly inedible.

Excellent food options on offer, and helpful, friendly staff made this two night stay a great experience. I'd stay again.

Lovely place to stay in a central position to the village. Very old with loads of character. Staff were very friendly and the food was really great. Our room was cosy, simply decorated and comfortable. Lacked a dressing table or somewhere to sit with a mirror and plug for hair drying/styling but we managed. Situated set back off the main street, next to a small Roman Catholic church for which the bells chime at 8am in Sundays but wasn’t intrusive. Lovely choice of breakfasts on the menu too.

Great pun and staff amazing.

The Black Lion Hotel is in a great location, interest individual art, clean, friendly welcome and very good food. The Black Lion was good value.
