Okay for a stay

The room was small hard to get the desk chair out without hitting the bed, the extractor fan didn’t work in bathroom - no parking had to use public car park and walk to hotel, the evening meal was ok but nothing special the English breakfast was not great, beans cold, egg hard and mushrooms inedible - sorry

Window cleaning at 6.20am on a Saturday

I stayed on a Friday evening. Saturday morning at 6.20am - window cleaner woke me up cleaning the windows!!!!! This is a hotel. Have the windows cleaned during the day and during the week. Think about your paying guests.

Stayed overnight on a dinner bed and breakfast rate. The hotel staff were friendly and welcoming. The room was nice but the bathroom was in need of an upgrade, that being said it was very clean. Inner was fantastic all meals are homemade to a very high standard not a frozen item to be seen. Breakfast again was a good. Very central to the centre of Lancaster. Would highly recommend this hotel to anyone.

I have stayed at this hotel on numerous occasions as it is near Lancaster hospital, i am in the forces and having delicate surgery on my knee ,so going out of the hotel is nigh on impossible so rely on the hotels service ie restaurant and bar to my amazement the hotel lost its alcohol licence on my second day there.not very nice when you cant get out no compensation or help was offered only by what i can only say as.by a very surly evening reception young lady wen i asked about this her rough reply to my question about advertised service that i had payed for was you have a bed and room.....totaly unbelievable and rude...the room i had paid for was very tierd with stained carpets..lmy room was along way from the lift which one strugled to get to ...most of the staff are so sweet and helpfull but a detriation by a couple of the staff and the closure of the bar service soured my stay not a happy stay very upset.........
