The Hampshire Hotel Lancaster is located just across the road from the Artis Royal Zoo, and just a 30 second walk to the right will take you to a quiet park and a whole bunch of flamingos that you can see through the fence looking on to the zoo. My husband said it was a really strange experience going out for a cigarette and hearing exotic animals in the night!
The hotel was welcoming and supplies plenty of leaflets for local attractions. Many of them come with discount vouches as well so look out for them in the stairway leading in to the hotel lobby.
There is no bar but there is a couple of vending machines and a coffee machines so you're okay if you need a quick refreshment. There is a couple of cafes, restaurants and take-aways that stay open until 11 if you find you're self dealing with the munchies.
This hotel, I would say is more suited to couples and the rooms are kind of small. You are provided with a fan in the wardrobe and it's Godsend, although you could just open the window if you wanted to, the hotel is in a fairly quiet area.
Overall, very happy with the service I got from the staff in the Hampshire hotel and I would stay in another Hampshire hotel in the future.More
