Well, it depends on what ion you are talking about: the H+ ion, 'proton,' or the H- hydride ion.

Anions, Lewis bases accept the proton or H+ ion (HCl); but active metals can react with H- to form metal hydrides (NaH for example)

A universal hydrogen acceptor is a molecule or an atom that can accept a hydrogen ion (H+). One example is water, which can act as a hydrogen acceptor by forming a hydronium ion (H3O+).
