The unique climate of the room comes at a price of its acoustics. The wooden floors and wooden, uninsulated windows make the room very noisy (both from the steps of neighbors upstairs, as well as any street noise). We were too tired after whole days of sightseeing, but if someone needs silence to get a good night sleep it may be interrupted. But I still call it fully worth it :)

Beautiful pub / guesthouse with a great atmosphere. Spacious rooms, great food a'la carte, breakfasts modest but tasty. Kind and helpful staff.

Just be aware if you have mobility problems there is no lift and a fair amount of stairs.

Room was very comfortable with a fabulous bed! Breakfast was simple but plentiful. We didn’t eat an evening meal but the menu looked great.

The only negative was the electrics didn’t work properly on the headboard.

Room was well presented, clean and spacious, shower was great. Breakfast was ham, cheese, selection of cereals, fruit. Enough to keep you going for a while. Staff where very courteous and knowledgeable about the area.

The stairs to get to the room is very steep. Lifting luggage to and from the room was taxing.

The accommodations were very clean and we found the staff to be very pleasant and accommodating. I love the traditional quarters and the fact we could open the windows and look out into the Main Street. Transportation to and from the pub was easy. Train stations are in short walking distance and the bus transports stop just outside The Black Lion Pub & Boutique. The food by the way was also amazing

Kilburn has a plethora of chains and takeouts and a shortage of nice, interesting sit-down places to eat. Interestingly, the Black Lion is one of those places, and you can easily see it's popularity. There's also a very nice Italian place nearby.

Rooms are quiet, comfy, and cleaned daily. High marks to the mattress. Breakfast (included) was tasty and full of variety. High Kilburn Road is a bit outside central London, so you need to take the Underground or bus a short distance to get into the business/historic parts of town. But Kilburn is on the Jubilee Line and on a bus line that goes down Abbey Road (a surprise discovery). There's also aboveground service pretty much all the way to Gatwick.

2 flights of stairs to the room. - but otherwise all good.

Great staff, very friendly. Good evening and Sunday lunch food options.

Close to tube + overground trains (5 min max on foot). Perfectly considered + delivered. Room was spacious, pleasing in its design + equipped to highest standard. The food in the restaurant/bar was as good as any + superior to many more fancied restaurants + good value for money into the bargain. Continental-type breakfast: all fresh + tasty. A gem of a place . Great credit to the management + staff. Thanks.

Our plugs kept tripping due an electrical issue but the team were very helpful sorting it out Otherwise everything was exceptional

Loved staying at the Black Lion. It was a very comfortable stay. My husband and I arrived a few hours before check in and we were allowed to have an earlier check in. Our room was clean and fresh. We were given complimentary waters each day. The continental breakfast each morning was fresh and well presented. Not many options for breakfast but I thought it was adequate. The building is beautiful and the pub is exceptional. The area around the Black Lion was lively and safe, nearby bus & train stops. Will definitely recommend staying here

No air conditioning would be my only complaint. Despite lots of street noise the room was quiet with windows shut but needed ventilation/cooling on the hot days we were there (high 70s F).

Beautifully appointed rooms, large, comfortable beds, wash cloths (!), fabulous shower, excellent continental breakfast and friendly/helpful staff.

It was a good distance from the popular spots and Heathrow, but the underground isn’t a far walk from the guesthouse. No real complaints.

The room was very nice, it overlooked the street which was very busy at night. The room was a comfortable size for two. The gentlemen who worked there helped us carry our bags up the steps. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. They even held our bags after check out. Continental breakfast in the pub was just enough each morning. The pub is beautiful and their Sunday roast was fabulous!

The location was a little noisy, but it didn't bother us at night with the windows closed.

The room was absolutely gorgeous, and the bed was insanely comfortable. It was the best night's sleep we had our entire trip! Would definitely stay here again!
