The bar area was good and there was ample parking. The staff were very friendly and helpful, although the housekeeping team and waitresses would benefit from some training. The bed was very comfortable, but the bedroom was lacking the niceties. It was however, good value for money. Lampeter itself is very small, and I fear for it, with its loos of the University. ##### Steuart Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jason 30 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean room and good clean bathroom.

The bathroom was very clean with lovely toiletries. We had an evening meal which was delicious and also breakfast which was equally as good. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. ##### Julia Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rebecca 7 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pleasant one night stay, rubbish water pressure. One night stay en route to Cardigan. The single room was spacious enough for me with a big tv, nice bathroom and a nice big window letting in natural light. The floors were a bit creaky in and outside the room and the water pressure wasn't great. Other than that it was a lovely stay with helpful and friendly staff. ##### Rebecca Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alan 4 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My wife’s parents got married in this property 70 years ago, so we decided to stay here as part of our family history trip. The building is from the 1700s but it has been updated and has a ton of charm. The key boxes were all checked: the bed was comfortable, it was quiet at night and the water pressure was good. A full welsh breakfast was included. We also had dinner in the restaurant. It was a bit pricey but tasty. The staff was wonderful: hard working and attentive. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Alan Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Peter N 2 Jun 2024 #### Little disappointed. Hotel was not great breakfast was poor as staff this were running late due to being locked out of hotel. Water pressure in room was rubbish, bath didn't hold water. Very noisy heating system. Staff were friendly enough hotel was clean and well presented. ##### Peter N Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Alex 8 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Room was in decent condition but being on the front of the building was quite noisy especially with the bells ringing every 15 minutes. Would have been nice if there was actually a member of staff around on check out as the whole bar and kitchen were just left wide open for anyone to help themselves to whatever they wanted ##### Alex Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ### 8/10 Good #### Lelle 5 Jul 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great comfortable stay, clean, cosy ,refurbished room - very reasonable priced. ##### Lelle Stayed 1 night in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher Lee 17 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities First time in Lampeter, lovely hotel and nice public house, Would definitely recommend ##### Christopher Lee Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Clean, Cozy, and Full of Charm Absolutely loved my stay at The Black Lion Royal Hotel. The room and bathroom were spotless and clearly very well looked after. The people at the reception are incredibly kind and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. The English breakfast was delicious and freshly made each morning. Plus, the hotel’s pub has such a cute, cozy vibe, perfect for a relaxing evening. Highly recommend! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tedd 2 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Property as expected ##### Tedd Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Waters Edge 9](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Saundersfoot-Hotels-Waters-Edge-9.h36120067.Hotel-Information) > > [Marine Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rhyl-Hotels-Marine-Holiday-Park.h48709088.Hotel-Information) > > [Ty Traeth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tenby-Hotels-Ty-Traeth.h27370891.Hotel-Information) > > [The Beacons Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brecon-Hotels-The-Beacons-Guest-House.h32517721.Hotel-Information) > > [The Seafront Hotel by Compass Hospitality](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llandudno-Hotels-Bay-County-Hotel.h57956289.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bluebell Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Neath-Hotels-The-Bluebell-Hotel.h2361280.Hotel-Information) > > [The Coach House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pembroke-Hotels-The-Coach-House-Hotel.h16371686.Hotel-Information) > > [Cadwgan House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dyffryn-Ardudwy-Hotels-Cadwgan-House-Hotel.h2266221.Hotel-Information) > > [Llandudno Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llandudno-Hotels-Regency-Royal-Hotel.h11063174.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Victoria Court 1](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tenby-Hotels-Royal-Victoria-Court-1.h36120058.Hotel-Information) > > [Cobourg House 6](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tenby-Hotels-Cobourg-House-6.h27370750.Hotel-Information) > > [Wynnstay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Machynlleth-Hotels-Wynnstay-Hotel.h17745718.Hotel-Information) > > [The Eagles Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llanrwst-Hotels-The-Eagles-Hotel.h5670683.Hotel-Information) > > [The New Alexandra Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llandudno-Hotels-The-New-Alexandra-Hotel.h24121387.Hotel-Information) > > [Northop Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mold-Hotels-Northop-Hall-Hotel-By-Payman-Club.h88664754.Hotel-Information) > > [Starling Cloud, Aberystwyth by Marston’s Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberystwyth-Hotels-Starling-Cloud.h11900767.Hotel-Information) > > [The Llandudno Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llandudno-Hotels-The-Llandudno-Hotel.h17857215.Hotel-Information) > > [Montclare Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llandudno-Hotels-Montclare-Hotel.h90802753.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunoon Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llandudno-Hotels-Dunoon-Hotel.h30990894.Hotel-Information) > > [The Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llandovery-Hotels-The-Castle-Hotel.h38283367.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach Court 14](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Saundersfoot-Hotels-Beach-Court-14.h49830756.Hotel-Information) > > [Llandudno Blissful Apartment Retreat in Llandudno](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llandudno-Hotels-Charming-1-Bed-Apartment-In-Llandudno.h48807962.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea View Holiday Cottage Porthmadog](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Porthmadog-Hotels-Sea-View-Holiday-Cottage.h35839059.Hotel-Information) > > [Laston Garden Flat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tenby-Hotels-Laston-Garden-Flat.h63863951.Hotel-Information) > > [Mountain Park Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Flint-Hotels-Mountain-Park-Hotel.h2394431.Hotel-Information) > > [The Knighton Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Knighton-Hotels-Knighton-Hotel-Peymans.h60384219.Hotel-Information) > > [St Tudno Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Llandudno-Hotels-St-Tudno-Hotel.h19387639.Hotel-Information) > > [Westminster Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rhyl-Hotels-Westminster-Hotel.h48954535.Hotel-Information) > > [Strandways Court 12A](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Saundersfoot-Hotels-Strandways-Court-12A.h36120051.Hotel-Information) ---
