Room clean and adequate size. Would have been nice to have a fridge but we were given fresh water. Although there is no air on, they do provide a floor fan. Evening meal was delicious, as was the wine. English breakfast was ok - I couldn’t eat the sausages as it was very over seasoned with white pepper, so I didn’t enjoy it, but hubby who loves pepper was happy to eat mine. Check in and out was very easy. Annoyingly because we hadn’t booked direct with the hotel we where charged £12 parking.

We had a great time staying at Lancaster House Hotel. Our room was very clean and comfortable; there was plenty of space for us to spread our belongings around. The drinks table was a nice touch with delicious biscuits and plenty of water, which was topped up on our second day. The shower was excellent, and we really liked the toiletries. Breakfasts were very good, with a great selection of hot and cold food. My only quibble was that the ham for the eggs Benedict was from a ham roll rather than freshly cut off the bone. Other than that, everything was very good.
