I had a fantastic night at this lovely place! The food was absolutely mouthwatering, especially the braised beef which melted in my mouth. The ambiance was stunning, and I loved the sophisticated decor. I'll definitely come back for another visit!

The cozy setting and delicious presentation of the meals made our stay really enjoyable.

The decor throughout The Black Lion, Long Melford, is charmingly elegant, with a lovely sitting room that invites relaxation. The accessibility is excellent, making it easy for seniors like me to navigate comfortably without any hassle.

Could use more seating areas for relaxation.

The Black Lion, Long Melford offers a cozy atmosphere with a beautifully decorated room featuring a huge king-sized bed and a spacious en-suite with an antique bath. The breakfast was exceptional, with a great selection that was freshly cooked. The restaurant staff were friendly and attentive, making our dining experience delightful.

A bit understaffed during dinner service.

the black lion is situated in a gorgeous location. the building is beautifully decorated, and our upgraded deluxe room was large and comfy. we didn't eat at the restaurant, but the bar had a good selection. the staff were very helpful and attentive. loved that they considered the environmental impact with their toiletries!

do recommend

This place suits me perfectly with its friendly staff, delicious restaurant, and cozy bar area. On my first stay, the staff helped me with directions, and I still remember their kindness. I highly recommend it for a relaxing city break!

The ambience and decor were lovely, and the staff were attentive and friendly. the food was overpriced and service could be improved, as we felt ignored at times during our meal. it was a pleasant experience, but there's room for enhancement.

We stayed for a night and had an unforgettable experience when the staff set up a cozy dining area just for us and our two dogs, who were a bit hyper. The gardens were a wonderful spot to relax, with comfortable seating and lovely flowers all around. Just a minor hiccup was the room being a tad smaller than I expected, but overall, it was a fantastic getaway! 🌼

Had a lovely stay! The food was a standout, especially the mashed avocado on brioche 🍴. Room was comfy but needed a bit of sprucing. a pleasant experience!

Decent choice for a quick stay in Long Melford, good value for the price. The pancakes at breakfast were exceptional. If you're a light sleeper, try to get an early night.

This place suits me perfectly with friendly staff, free wi-fi, a cozy bar, and delicious food in the restaurant. I'll never forget how the staff helped me with sim cards on my first stay. Highly recommend it!

a truly delightful stay with friendly staff, great fish dish overlooking the green

Fantastic food in a lovely setting.

In my wife’s opinion, the breakfast could definitely offer more variety for kids. Just a bit more fruit or cereal choices would be great to keep them happy during morning meals.

Comfortable Stay with Friendly Service

Enjoyed a lovely two-night stay with my family. The staff were incredibly attentive and made my children's meal requests feel special. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. Just a heads-up, check dining options in advance to avoid disappointment, as local places can get fully booked on weekends.
