Lancaster House presents basic English quality. The rooms are not large and the furniture is outdated. Breakfast, bar and dinner are fine. The hotel has no Business Centre.

We had our wedding day on 17th may and it was fantastic. The hotel is beautiful, the food was out of this world especially the sticky toffee pud. Helen, our wedding co-ordinator couldn't do enough for us. She made us feel like we were the only couple that had ever got married there. Her attention to detail was next to... More

I stayed here for one nights for a business meeting. The hotel is placed in the grounds of Lancaster University and has its own access road - easily accessible from the M6. The hotel tries very hard to make your stay pleasurable and I can't pick fault with anything. Special mentions for the helpful staff, comfortable bed (room 76), nice... More

I stayed here for two nights for a conference. The hotel is placed in the grounds of Lancaster University but has its own access road - easy to find with quick access to the M6. Everything was very good - bar, restaurant and rooms. The staff were very professional. A minor niggle was the lack of wifi in the rooms... More

An overnight stay to attend a conference for 20 or so colleagues. High standard of service and support from staff, really excellent food and good sized room, Would strongly recommend the restaurant for either dinner or lunch! Very convenient and quiet location.
