So much nicer than lots of the 'generic' hotels along the M6. Impressive food, friendly staff, comfortable room.

Great little stopover

We only needed a place for a one-off stopover and the George and dragon fitted the bill perfectly. We had a lovely meal in the restaurant and the staff were very attentive and helpful. Recommended

A delightful overnight stop

We had a “new” room that was beautiful with a stunning bathroom. One thing could be better…a full-length mirror for the ladies. Breakfast was top class and dinner was also superb though our server was a bit random and forgot a second glass of wine. But the manager recovered very well by delivering at no cost! Location is good especially for a stop-over close to the M6.

Excellent hotel, a true gem

This is one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. The room was wonderful - comfortable and clean, with nice extra touches. The bed was so comfortable it was difficult to get up in the morning! The restaurant was wonderful - excellent food and service. Breakfast was also excellent. Will definitely book again next time we are in the area.

Unfortunately food was not as good as our previous stays.

Absolutely fabulous in every way! Staff, service, room, attention to detail, ambience and food were beyond first class! Interior design was truly inspirational and coordinated to perfection! Cannot recommend The George and Dragon Clifton highly enough. Back very soon!

Excellent base for the Lake District

Very comfortable and relaxing stay. One of the best hotels we've stayed at in the UK for cleanliness, comfort and service.
John, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice accomodation. Would have dinner elsewhere

Accomodation fine. Welcome greeting factual but short on personality. Evening meal menu was short on options and tried to be too 'modern and trendy' for my taste. Steak at evening meal was cold and served on cold plate. Bacon at breakfast was over cooked and appeared to have been prepared early and 'kept warm'. Would stay again if visiting area but would give evening meal a miss and find restaurant in town instead!

Great handling of a quick stay

It was a one night stay and the kitchen was closed. They phoned ahead to tell me and the staff on that night were really friendly I also managed to get a cheeky wee burger as the work was done so quickly! Yummie

Delightful property, staff fantastic and food wonderful. In perfect location for our journey , easily accessed fro M6 and full of character. Will use again and would recommend.

What a find

Beautiful place to stay and food was amazing. Its only downside is lack of sockets that I could find in the room to be able to use my hairdryer near the mirror. It wouldn’t stop me staying again. Also they are refurbishing rooms downstairs which would be ideal if they are dog friendly or me
