Best Western Lancaster Morecambe Lothersdale Hotel

Having read some of the existing reviews for this hotel I was filled with a little intrepidation but I hadn’t have worried. On arrival o was greeted warmly on reception and given a key to a decent enough room but the best surprise was the professional and friendly welcome given by ‘Dan’ in the upstairs bar and restaurant. I could not be more pleased with the service and the food. I would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend the place. less

I was a little disappointed in the hotel as it is a Best Western and they are usually of a good standard. The common areas looked in need of refurbishment. We booked a superior room with a sea view; the room itself was acceptable but the shower/toilet was very small making it difficult to turn round. The best feature of the hotel was the food which was of a very good standard. We ate twice in the bar area where you could choose from the bar and restaurant menus. The staff were friendly and helpful in the bar (and restaurant at breakfast time) and at reception. less

Had a really nice little stay in this hotel, was clean and tidy. The downside was it’s very old so everything creaks, doors, floorboards, you name it! Which is annoying when upstairs move around as you can hear everything! The food in the restaurant was very good and would definitely return for a cheap night away. less

Firstly the staff are very nice and pleasant I cannot and will not fault. But .....the beds are awful, cheap and way too hard. The walls paper thin and you can hear everything, there is a constant tapping from somewhere in the hotel that resonates in the room I am writing this at 5:40am not had a full constant hour of sleep just snatched half hours here and there, and I normally sleep like the dead! The cold water is non existent, tv remote covered in? I hate to guess, the light coming from the door frame is like a scene from a poltergeist movie and lights the room up. Towels are now used to block it out. I cannot wait to go to work today so I can get out of here, still have one more night to go, I am seriously considering not staying the other night and paying for a premier inn out of my own pocket in the next town, at least it’s modern and of decent quality with comfortable beds, I never liked the 70’s and staying here takes me right back. I hate giving negative reviews but I cannot recommend this Best Weston at all. Truly ghastly the only saving grace is the sea front position but sleep in your car overnight in the sea front car park. It’s more comfortable and you won’t hear the world around you talk, snore, fart, pee, cough, breath, and walk the creaky plank. less

Booked this for a weekend break. First impressions were really good when checking in. All done and up in the lift. This was quite a scary experience, only four people, I case and two hold-alls and it was very rickety, very..... Down the corridor and into our room, first impressions, a nice room, ensuite was the width of the shower cubicle, sit on the toilet and you bang your head on the wall, so best to sit at an angle! The toilet roll holder is by the shower so remember to move it closer to the toilet. Shower time...... a luke warm shower was not what I wanted or expected and for the whole weekend. There’s nowhere to hang the towels in the bathroom either. Walking across the bedroom floor without shoes is not advisable as I trod on something sharp which was a broken ring, there was clumps of hair on the carpet. If there is a function on they clearly need to put more staff on in the kitchen as the wait for breakfast was very long and the sausages looked undercooked, but the previous day breakfast was excellent also the evening meal was delicious. On the good side the bed and pillows were so comfortable, the bars were really nicely decorated and had Happy Hour but only for certain drinks. All the staff here were so very nice and helpful, nothing was too much trouble and the housemaids made sure you had plenty of tea, coffee, biscuits and toiletries in the room. I did mention a few of the faults at reception when we left and an apology was given. Let’s hope it improves, but I doubt I’ll see this as I won’t be going again less
