Ridden past this place many times, pulled in Saturday afternoon after mountain biking the Bucknell trails just a mile or so away. Idyllic setting, the garden runs down to the river. It’s picture post card stuff. As soon as you walk in you can smell history, solid oak floor, crooked beams, tiles and black and white photos of yesteryear. Grabbed a pint of wye valley ale and some peanuts and headed for the garden where lunch plans were rewritten. Home made, wood fired pizzas: wow.

Lovely hotel with old world charm. We were there for the steak night and everything was cooked as we wanted. Served in charming restaurant with attentive service from the young staff. Unbeatable value for money. Loved the photos in the lounge of old Leintwardine and environs.

As a frequent traveller it is rare to find an hotel which scores highly in every area but The Lion is one of those. The check in and check out were efficient, warm and friendly whilst the team were all professional, smartly presented and very helpful at all times The room was very comfortable, spotlessly clean and well furnished. The food was well prepared and beer well kept- well done team - a rare gem and I hope to stay with you again at the first opportunity!

Stayed overnight on our wedding anniversary. Excellent accommodation the bed was extremely comfortable and our room was spotless. Super location by the river. The food was top quality and breakfast was the best we have had in a long time: good selection of drinks very friendly and helpful staff. Can recommend

The Lion has a bit of a monopoly when it comes to good food and drink. There are not many places to choose from, in this sleepy corner of Herefordshire. However, the place does not rest on it's laurels. We enjoyed a very nice meal on a rather busy Saturday evening. The staff were all pleasant and friendly, and the food did not disappoint. The mushroom soup was a real delight, and the mains were more than satisfactory. A very pleasant visit.

Lovely pub in a gorgeous setting but very over priced. Had a Pork Roast which was bland and cost £22 and a bottle of their Rose Wine was £27 but across the road in The Sun it was £16.50. A total rip off. Staff were friendly but when they did a check back on the food and I said it was bland he just ok thanks and walked off. Not what I’d expect for paying those prices.

Excellent pub/restaurant (see separate review), comfortable well equipped rooms, and a picturesque riverside location. The hotel makes a good base for the numerous walks in the area, and the bar is a good place to meet both the friendly locals and fellow guests. The staff always go that extra mile.

A group or 8 stayed for 3 nights in January. It was cold outside and lovely and warm in the hotel. We were made very welcome by all the staff. Rooms were very good and clean. The food was first very good and full of flavours. Will stay again. Thankyou to a great team
