County Brassiere & Coffee House in Lancaster

This place appears to be permanently closed

The hotel has an air of faded-grandeur about it. Lots of weeds in the car park are a poor first impression, buildings seem generally unkempt on the outside and in communal areas. However, the bedroom was fine and it was clean, which is my primary concern at the more budget end of the market. The bathroom was very dated, but again it was clean. Sound proofing isn’t great at all, you can hear every word in the corridor and I could hear next doors conversation and phone vibrating through the night. Breakfast wasn’t available during my stay, and it’s only a continental breakfast anyway, so probably don’t bother with it and make the short walk to Greggs in the morning instead. I think this hotel is an ideal base or transit hotel for 1 or 2 nights, and I’d probably avoid a Friday or Saturday night to reduce the chance of noise issues. The check in arrangements were a little unusual, but the lady on the end of the phone was very polite, friendly, helpful and professional. With a bit of tidying up and some investment this hotel has strong potential due to its location.

The parking is not free. Went to grab some breakfast, it was very nice, and then a week later I was treated to a parking fine of £100 for parking in the car park. No one told me that reg had to be input into some device and being dyslexic makes it a bit hard to read small signs. Who expects to pay for parking when you use the restaurant own car park. Could not provide receipt as paid on cash. Called restaurant, they confirmed I was a customer and they would sort it all out. They never did and now it's being taken further as no evidence has been provided by the hotel/restaurant. Stay or eat at your peril.

It was great for me personally,as I needed an Hotel close to the Train Station,the rooms were warm and comfortable,the price is very reasonable,it's my 2nd stay there.And would recommend it , Thanks Brian Leecy.

We enjoyed our stay , building was a bit run down But room was big ,warm and it's very quiet

Stayed for one night - room and bed was okay, could do with a proper airing out and air fresheners added as it smelled a bit musty (in more than one room). WiFi didn’t work that night either. Although there are notices up, people are not quiet when entering the building, so with the thin walls and doors it can get a bit noisy throughout the night. A bit of a strange set up with arrival and check in - having to phone to be let into the main building to check in, which obviously used to be a restaurant/pub. When asking about breakfast (only continental available), it wasn’t going to start until 9.30am which was too late for us. Seems to have ongoing staffing issues and lack of investment which maybe why so much is unavailable or just generally run down - a shame as it’s a good location and main building looks inviting.

Door was locked when we got there. The number that I got online for communication just went to voicemail, but there was a phone number posted on the door that the other person that was waiting with me called and somebody answered finally someone came down and lettuce inside out of the cold. She was very nice and explained things very well. We were able to get two rooms, three beds and one bath for a very reasonable price.

Went for a funeral and wake afterwards at Carnforth CC.Ideal position in centre of the town.

No hot water, no heating, only one lamp working for light in the room, and that flickers. no help at reception (closed) the rough building thats actually the rooms had broken / boarded up windows , womens clothes left on the beds, cloudy beer at the bar, feels like it's abandoned and someone just opened up for us and left. complete hole, avoid

Went here, for a wake. Some of the food was frozen. Not what you expect.
