Excellent venue for business meetings combined with quiet surroundings and close proximity to Preston town centre; good transport connections and great food too. Would definitely stay again.
Hotel is ok. Had room overlooking the river which was nice. However we booked a double room and the bed was uncomfortable, as dipped in the middle. Room was tired and old. Cooked breakfast was lovely and staff were all friendly and helpful.

Hot than hell i believe!!
The staff were excellent in fact couldn’t have been better .
The hotel location is fantastic for traveling up or down the m6 .
I had a river view very nice .
The hotel is very very tired but that was reflected in the price .
I thought the dinner and wine to be London price not good value at all .
My god the room temperature was so hot sauna standards couldn’t put down or open the window basically if they could put the heating down they could half the price for eating .
