The hotel is in the heart of Lancaster, making it super convenient for exploring the city. The rooms are cozy and well-equipped, but the welcome drink was a nice touch. The dining options were a bit limited, which was a downside. Overall, it's a great place to stay.
The hotel is in a prime location right in the center of Lancaster, offering easy access to most attractions within walking distance. The rooms are spacious, impeccably clean, and equipped with great facilities, perfect even for larger suitcases. The service is top-notch with a lovely welcome drink to start your stay. However, dining options were not included, and there might be an extra charge. Overall, a great value for money choice with fantastic facilities.
