I always stay here when i am working in Preston. They are really accommodating, front desk very helpful and never say no to trying to help.
Rooms are good, as is the points system for loyalty members.
Restaurant has different “weeks” with Steak week and Pie week for example (or you can choose either bar menu or full restaurant menu - loads of choice).
Main thing that goes a long way is the staff’s attitude which is just lovely so friendly and helpful, including front desk, bar, restaurant and room service.

I have stayed at this hotel a couple of time recently and every time there is a warm welcome and I'm made to feel valued. The location is within easy walking distance of the city centre. The rooms are comfy and well equipped. The food offering is limited but all items are very tasty and reasonably priced. The only down side is the car park is tiny and there can be issues with parking if you arrive late.

city centre location but with a small car park. the rooms are what you would expect from HI - clean tidy with all mod cons. The bar & restaurant area is very large , which meant there was plenty of space but did lack atmosphere. Our bar meal was OK - burnt burger for one of us, but our bill was adjusted without us even asking. The breakfast was large scale fully cooked or continental- the cooked was constantly refreshed & was lovely & hot (not the case in some HI's) Its best attribute was the staff: very helpful , friendly, attentive & smiling , that was reception, behind the bar, the whole breakfast team - very impressive. & its the people that can make or break a hotel & in Preston they are first class .

I have stayed here several times for business trips, and have always found the members of staff extremely helpful and friendly. The hotel is conveniently situated close to the city centre, but is not noisy, and it has easy links to motorways. The rooms are comfortable and well appointed. The food is very good and there is plenty of it!! Breakfast provides proper porridge, which is a bonus, and the poached eggs are always perfectly cooked. The restaurant staff are top class, especially the breakfast teams. There is on site parking. I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

I was really impressed by every aspect of this inexpensive hotel. Spotless room, comfy beds (including choice of soft or firm pillow!), very quiet on the 7th floor. Breakfast better than at a lot of far grander places. Properly made porridge and superb bacon from a local farm. Staff on reception and at breakfast absolutely charming - it really doesn’t feel like a chain. I guess it’s slightly odd giving it a 5 as the building affords some of the grimmest views of ring roads and car parks in Britain! But they can’t help that and I don’t think they could have done more to make my stay more pleasant. Next time I need an inexpensive chain hotel I’d definitely choose this one.

a large garden if you like walking, but not a lot of formal garden, also difficult to reach, through very narrow lanes, which sat nav takes you through, a bit hair rising, coffee shop quite expensive and drinks not really hot!

Superb gardens, a mix of the formal and informal. We particularly liked the woodland areas with many foxgloves and the cascade.
Although we intended to have a quick look around, we stayed for over three hours, and also enjoyed a very good lunch.

Fathers day BBQ on the lawn was a fantastic lunch time event. The food was the usual high standard you expect from Herstercombe. With the added games available for all, tug-of-war, giant jenga, giant chess, football & hockey aswell as lots of safe space for the whole family to enjoy. The staff were all extremely helpful and friendly, joining in with tug-of-war and accompanying some of the children in an impromptu gymnastics display. A very relaxed family friendly environment for the whole family to enjoy.

We enjoyed the gardens considering the amount of rain lately but were disappointed by the prices and autocratic manner and attitude of what appeared to be a senior member of the catering staff towards his staff and ourselves and others behind us waiting to be served in the cafe area.
We will not be returning to Hestercombe!!
