I had a wonderful experience at this hotel, attending their themed food night, which was a delightful Chinese cuisine extravaganza. The food was freshly prepared, with generous portions that left us satisfied. The staff was incredibly welcoming, making us feel at home, while the atmosphere was warm and friendly. However, I wish there were more themed nights to look forward to because the dinner experience was truly fantastic.
Lifton Hall Hotel offers a unique and delightful experience, thanks to its clean and spacious rooms, wonderful dining options, and friendly atmosphere.

I had a wonderful time at the hotel. The unique design and spacious rooms made for a pleasant stay, and the dining was excellent, especially the tasting menu. However, while the staff was great with service, I did notice some aspects could use a little bit more attention. Overall, it was a memorable experience, and I can't wait to visit again.
I had a good base for exploring the area during my two-night stay. The hotel was very clean and comfortable, though the service could be inconsistent. Breakfast was outstanding, thanks to the friendly breakfast staff. Unfortunately, my evening experience at the restaurant left much to be desired as I was ignored by the bar staff, prompting us to dine elsewhere. Overall, I'd say it's a decent place if you're not too picky about service.
We had a wonderful experience at Lifton Hall. The rooms were comfortable and well-equipped, making our stay very enjoyable. The food was exceptional, both for breakfast and dinner, and the staff went out of their way to accommodate us. However, we were quite far from our home in Yorkshire, so it would take a while to visit again, but we would definitely consider it. Overall, great value and a lovely time!
