Hotel Holiday Inn Lancaster
Waterside Park, Caton Road, Lancaster, LA1 3RA, United Kingdom – Great location - show map
Handy location next to M6 and good access to Morcambe and Lancaster
United KingdomI just asked for a room with a double bed, the room was quite big, clean, had everything I needed, but I was massively impressed with the view of the river, I made a note of the room number, hoping to come back again and stay in that same room.
United KingdomReally friendly helpful staff. Great facilities Great location Excellent value.
United KingdomVastly better image after a refurb than when I stayed last around 4 years back. Quiet room provided at the rear riverside of the property.
United KingdomExcellent choice for breakfast with helpful friendly staff
United KingdomExcellent variety of food, it was tasty and well stocked by the staff. The dining area was very clean and cheerfully decorated. Even though we didn't bring children it was great to see they were catered for with toys etc.
United KingdomGym and swimming pool facilities were available all day, restaurant catered for variety of dietary needs and food was good. Location was just 2 mins off the motorway and 5 minutes to central Lancaster so ideal.
United KingdomThere are not a lot of nearby dining choices since this hotel is located just off the motorway, and a bit outside of town. So, it is certainly a plus that Holiday Inn offers a restaurant on site. Breakfast was typical B&B fare with hot and cold dishes served buffet style. There was enough variety to satisfy most tastes.
United States of AmericaOnly a few minutes off the M6 this was an ideal location to break our journey. The night staff were friendly, courteous and helpful and the breakfast plentiful and extensive.
United KingdomGood location, friendly staff and good value for money
