Superb place to stay! The staff are all so friendly and welcoming. The rooms are lovely, really comfy beds and nicely decorated. The food is exceptional and there’s a great array of craft ales! We will most definitely stay here again when visiting Lancaster. 5 stars!

Possibly the friendliest welcome from reception/bar man we've ever received. Small room but well designed and beautifully decorated. Quality touches such as a cafetiere and coffee. So much nicer than sachet coffee. Fantastic shower and quality toiletries. Room was spotless. We've been in the bar many times and the atmosphere and choice of beers is excellent.

Staff was wonderful. Room a bit small for 2 but clean. Food was great.

Was upgraded to king suite, a nice touch by Gemma the manager. Lovely room to stay in

The whole team worked miracles just to have the place open during these difficult times. Nothing was too much trouble and everything was done with a smile.

Staff were really friendly and helpful, comfortable bed, great central location with a great bar/restaurant downstairs

Everything about the sun hotel was excellent . An absolute pleasure to stay.

Nice stay, very comfy bed. Staff were friendly. We enjoyed the breakfast and beer!

Lovely friendly atmosphere ! Everything was exceptional !! Room was spacious , clean, warm and modern. Cannot fault it!!

Lovely stay, breakfast was brilliant, felt very safe with COVID measures in place - I would definitely recommend
