Quite Simply French on St George’s Quay is the only hotel in Lancaster to have been awarded the full five stars by AA Hotel & Hospitality Services.
“We have retained our FIVE STAR rating for our restaurant with rooms,” says a post on the restaurant’s Facebook page.
“We are the only 5 star hotel in Lancaster and our team put their heart & soul into making you feel like you are one of the family…. pampered in luxury of course.”
The AA inspector described Quite Simply French as a restaurant with boutique rooms that is without doubt on many people’s 'hidden gems' list.
It's four rooms above a two-storey restaurant tucked away in a narrow building wedged among some former riverside industrial buildings, yet in the heart of Lancaster.
"Modern, spacious and comfortable accommodation takes stylistic cues from Lancaster's industrious past, but feature a number of up-to-date features such as huge smart TVs, coffee machines and funky lighting,” said the inspector.
“Food, as the name suggests, is French at heart with a rustic approach to style and portions. The welcome is warm and breakfast memorable too.”
