The hotel is perfectly situated in the very center of Lancaster, right opposite the Town Hall and close to shops, bars, and restaurants. The rooms are cozy with comfortable beds, nice little touches, and the convenience of tea & coffee. The service, provided by only one staff member, including housekeeping and a welcome drink, is satisfactory. On the downside, the dining options are limited to just continental snacks. Overall, the hotel offers a great location and comfortable rooms but lacks dining variety.
