I found it very impersonal, our room was very small and quirky but the cleanliness let it down. There was dust and hair on the bathroom floor and the shower could do with a bit more attention in the corners. Laying on the small double bed you looked up to the detailed cobwebs in the corners. The room definitely could... More

Stayed one night meeting friends. Lovely modernisation of old building with imaginative decor. Room at rear of hotel was attractive and quiet. Easy walking distance of restaurants. Recommend the Golden Dragon Chinese which was great (and still serving after 9.00pm unlike some others locally). Breakfast was very good although serving staff seemed a bit bewildered by the idea of clearing... More

Booked through an agent and paid £90ish. Thought that was quite good. When we arrive family heavy, found a few problems. Parking was difficult as it was over a busy road and a bit of a pain - also the car park is a bit of a wreck, full of potholes and litter. Check in was good, lift was clean... More

Needing to stay overnight in Lancaster on a business trip last week, I consulted tripadvisor and chose Penny Street Bridge. I was not disappointed. The hotel is within walking distance of the railway station. (Upon leaving the station, walk towards the City Centre and turn right at Waterstone's bookshop into King Street. It's about 10 munites' walk.) My room was... More

Lovely room, so quiet even on the busy A6 road, triple glazed windows, comfy beds and nice warm room. We had the Sunday carvery meal and it was great, drinks a little pricy, but we weren't too worried about that. Breakfast really tasty. Decor brilliant, loved the mirrors placed at angles up the stairway, lots of character and will definitely... More

Just come back from a business trip to Thailand and Taiwan and stayed in best hotels, but Penny Street Bridge has it all covered for me. My one night here was perfect. They really are trying and succeeding. Fantastic building brought up to date so well. Food and service great. Will stay again.

Lovely hotel, nice atmosphere. Great food and helpful staff. Parking consists of 3 spaces. More parking close by but council run not anything directly to do with the hotel.
