Had sunday roast lunch here, which was excellent value with one course at £7.95 which included bread basket and olive oil and balsamic vinegar and a generous side dish of vegetables. The chicken roast was great, substantial and great potatoes. The restaurant itself is quite modern in style which contrasts with the traditional lounge style of the bar itself though... More

We have just spent a few days at this really good hotel,which was such good value for money. Our room was comfy and not the standard hotel bedroom.Food was very good and the staff were all smiles. As this hotel is in the centre of town a nightly walk was enjoyable,as we had the town almost to ourselves. Would recommend... More

We chose this hotel on the basis of the very positive TA ratings and reports we read - 197 excellents or very goods out of 211. We stayed in the Sankey 4 poster 'suite', which was really quite tired and unimpressive. The bathroom had been upgraded, but had a power shower which wasn't operating when we tried to use it....

Great mix of old world charm and modern comforts. Food was really good, and the chef's specials each evening were our favourites. Always a fresh fish dish each evening. Staff were very attentive. We had a great stay.

This was our second stay at the Hope Anchor since it was refurbished. On both occasions, the rooms have been very clean and comfortable, with lovely bathrooms. This stay was in one of the smaller double rooms, but it was still spacious enough, with a nice view across the marshes. We have not eaten here other than at breakfast, which... More

Have just returned to the US after a lovely 5 night break at the Hope Anchor. Everything was outstanding! We had the Dinner, Bed and Breakfast deal--can't be beat. My room (Admiral's Apartment B) was comfortable and spacious with lots of little extras that made me feel very pampered. The breakfasts were quite good and filling and the dinners were... More

Lovely hotel, nice clean and wonderfully warm rooms. We stayed in the Channel Room which was very comfortable and had a nice clean bathroom with a lovely hot shower! Our friends had The Outlook Room, fab bathroom but avoid if you're over 5'8!, The Sankey Suite was very nice with a four poster and seperate lounge area...Recommended for the more... More
