All the staff engaged you and were extremely friendly

Norman, United Kingdom

Very friendly staff. Good selection and quality of food.

Jeremy, United Kingdom

We were upgraded to room with two double beds when the sofa bed wasn't made up for our daughter on arrival. 12pm check out time meant we could enjoy the pool before hitting the road.

Kate, United Kingdom

Staff, excellent, they could not have been more helpful Ate once in restaurant, partner is a chef in a 4* hotel, it's not often I get to eat better food than I get at home, this was one of those times.

Morine, United Kingdom

Brill Brill Brill It is booked again next week Got the same room

Michael, United Kingdom

The view from the window was of a flat roof and air conditioning units. The room was a little warm, easily remedied by turning on ac.

Melvyn, United Kingdom

The room was great except that there was only one arm chair for two people and no chair at the desk from which to work, spoiling the room for comfortable living.

눉I don't think the ac was working well in our room but we only realised the night before we left and it was too late to really do much about it. The rate was a little high but I guess it was because of graduation days at Lancaster but I feel breakfast could have been included in the rate
눇Good size room and a functional hotel located on outskirts of town just of the motorway. Friendly helpful staff Lovely riverside walk just along the back of the hotel.

눉No porter to help with luggage. Basically have to move luggage yourself which was a bit troublesome if you have a large family and lots of luggage. I had also booked for 3 rooms which was confirmed but they only had me down as having 2 rooms. Luckily we could fit everyone in because we became a party of 8 instead of 9 initially.
눇Helpful staff. Good location. Nice surroundings.

- • Double Room with Sofa Bed - Non-Smoking

눉small double bed, expensive breakfasts, lack of attention to detail and companies holding meetings in the bar during the day. we had lunch there one day the portions were small and overpriced For our Monday night stay we paid £128.00 and that did not include breakfast, In lancsater we coulf have had better quality rooms, a quality breakfast and alot cheaper stay!
눇It has a good size carpark, but its a typical holiday Inn, Soulless but if you like that sort of thing that's fine.
