They bounced our booking claiming they were closed but we met 4 people who were staying there....Guess they got more money!

The Red Lion is situated in a central location, within walking distance of all amenities. Our room was clean, comfortable, pleasant and well-equipped. The Proprietors were exceptional, and could not have been more helpful, with both being personable, efficient and extremely accommodating. The breakfast was plentiful, and of an excellent standard, with local produce being used wherever possible. I would highly recommend this establishment, and will certainly be returning to stay there again in the future.

Perfect for the Offa's Dyke folks or others wanting to explore the area. Helpful owners. Nice room. Great breakfast.

First night stay on our Trans Cambrian bike ride and what a perfect place for it. Room and en suite were incredibly clean and comfortable. Neil and his wife could not be more accommodating throughout and the breakfast was first class with quality ingredients. An added bonus for bike riders is the secure lock up facility inside the hotel. I cannot recommend highly enough especially if you are starting the Trans Cambrian route!

Great place for starting out on the northern part of the Offa’s Dyke Walk. Extremely friendly and flexible hosts, who did everything to make us happy. We slept like logs and had a great breakfast before setting out on our walk. Very nice beds and a well equipped room.

Lovely welcome, freedom to come and go as we pleased. Really enjoyed the breakfast. Very relaxed and rooms well stocked with good coffee and tea making facilities. And the bonus of a honesty bar. Recommended.

After a long day walking on Offa’s Dyke we had a friendly welcome. A tasteful interior in this pub that’s not a pub. Our room was small but well equipped with local products. A good breakfast both for meat eaters and vegetarians. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful. We loved Knighton.

Can't recommend The Red Lion highly enough -- excellent rooms, breakfasts, and the most welcoming of hosts.

Clean, comfy rooms with wonderful breakfast and flexible hosts who sent us off well supplied with bacon and sausage butties as we wanted to get out mega early on hottest day of year. Thank you so much

Nice spacious room. Lots of hot water. Comfy bed. Friendly host. Good breakfast. Perfect for walkers doing Offas Dyke. Local shops to get stocked up with toiletries and other supplies

What a gem! Situated in the centre of Knighton, right by the clock tower, this former public house has been stylishly converted into a B'n'B. My room still had some older elements but with the addition a very elegant and new en-suite. The owners Neil and Kath know their stuff and provide TV, tea and coffee making facilities and an espresso machine. There was more than enough storage space too and a lot of cushions. I did find the absence of dedicated re-charging slots a little frustrating but fortunately I had brought my own charger.The price of the room I thought was quite appropriate given the facilities and services provided. I came by train so cannot comment on parking.Neil and Kath do not live on site but are there to welcome you and they give you your own key to let yourself in and out. They also provide telephone numbers for an emergency. This was not a problem. They, and all their staff followed COVID security rules and so masks were worn.Breakfast, cooked by Neil, was excellent and very tasty. The full English was on offer with toast, marmalade, cereals and yoghurts etc. Neil was also happy to get any particular flavours too. In fact he could not have been more helpful even sourcing decaffeinated pods for the espresso machine. Fresh milk and biscuits were also provided.TV channels were limited to Freeserve(?) and would be useful to foreign guests but UK channels were limited to BBC news. and Sky news.I really enjoyed my three days in Knighton and this was a lot to do with the comfort of my accommodation for which I must thank my hosts.
