Extremely friendly staff, who were helpful throughout the stay, very clean rooms and all efforts made to make up for the lack of a kitchen with continental breakfast provided in the room. Quiet, and well organised, excellent value.

Karl, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We have just returned from our one night stay 19/12 -20/12 and I just really wanted to say what an amazing hotel and bar it is , we had a mix up but decided to keep the stay and upgrade so we could bring our daughter and when I called hotels.com were so helpful and sorted it straight away. Then when we arrive the lady who checked us in was wonderful, letting us know what we needed to know as well as any other information she thought would be helpful, my daughter loved the room and how much space we had it was clean and spacious once we returned from our evening meal we asked if we could borrow a game to play from the bar and they were so generous saying take whatever you’d like, so again our little one was made up. Although it was “mad Friday” the rooms had very little noise from the bar and we were in Room 1 which was basically on top of the bar ! The breakfast basket was a great touch with something for everyone in which I did not realise we got when booking so it was great to put us on till lunch. Overall they are most definitely a 5* hotel and we are already planning on returning and will definitely be spreading the word !

Rupert, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel staff. It’s more centered around the bar which is very fine. Rooms are small and breakfast very limited. The location is great in the center of town.

Excellent and central place to stay in Lancaster. Lovely rooms, car park next door. Great staff and pub, no food except a breakfast tray, but lots of options close by. Thanks for a great stay 👍
Timothy, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was very clean. It had a cracked ceiling, traffic noise all night so not had a good night sleep. Noise from other room above could be heard. Bathroom temperature very different to the room as it was quite cold. Parking is a pain as it’s on a first come first serve basis. I had to park far away. Good location but will no good for me.

Lovely hotel with excellent staff, they couldn't do enough to help us. Comfortable room with good facilities. The only little niggle was the outside security light kept coming on which made the room very bright when trying to sleep.
