Quite Simply French – A...

Liked: From the moment we checked in at Quite Simply French, we knew this was going to be special — but being upgraded to their magnificent two-level river view suite took it to another level entirely.The décor is stunning, with thoughtful touches everywhere. Upstairs, the mezzanine bedroom feels wonderfully indulgent, complete with a free-standing bath that all but insists you take a long soak. A coffee machine and the most moreish homemade biscuits make it all too easy to linger in the room, gazing out over the water.We’d also booked dinner in the restaurant downstairs and, frankly, I’m glad we did. The menu was sensational — packed with tempting choices — and the wine list offered excellent bottles at very fair prices. Every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavour; it’s the kind of food that makes you plan your return before you’ve even finished dessert.Breakfast the next morning was just as memorable. The smashed avocado was fresh and vibrant, but the crispy bacon deserves its own round of applause — quite honestly the best I’ve ever eaten.The location is perfect for exploring both the river and the charming town beyond, but with rooms and food like this, you’ll be tempted not to stray too far. Quite Simply French isn’t just a place to stay — it’s an experience you’ll want to savour from start to finish.Every member of staff we met from check in to check out were wonderful

Disliked: The weak filter coffee. The price of the Crèment.

We enjoyed our stay and...

Liked: Loved the location,we enjoyed walking our dog along the quay . It was also easy to get on the M6 to get to the lakes and Carlisle. The room was very stylishly decorated and had a very comfortable bed . We also had an excellent meal in the restaurant on one of the evenings with our family who we were visiting.
Disliked: Our only issue was there wasn’t enough storage. We appreciate there wasn’t room for a wardrobe but would have liked some drawers.

Liked: The Interior Design of our room was exceptional, lots of little gorgeous touches!
Disliked: I felt the WC was separate from the sink area for washing hands.

Excellent

Liked: It was an amazing experience. I liked how relaxed it was! It's a five star hotel but not pretentious. The staff are so friendly and you get a five star and above meal. Woh the food was amazing, the taste, presentation, bit mostly the taste. , Plus no tiny portions so it suits everyone's appetites. We even took some food in a box for the wildlife. I know they are animal lovers !
Disliked: I liked everything, a few more snacks would be good in the room, but having said that it does spoil your appetite, and you can get food in Lancaster. We only stayed a night so we didn't really look about because my folks are elderly. So ? The granola salted bowl was great, that would be nice as a extra, I would love the recipe too!.

Lovely Hotel

Liked: Room was beautiful, welcoming host, great location.
Disliked: Room was very hot in the night, the fan helped a little. Not the fault of the hotel, just unusally warm weather.
