10/10 Exceptional

Excellent Lakes Stay

We booked a superior room which was excellent and had views of the lake. We were a ljttle apprehensive when booking after reading some reviews but we absolutely did nit need to worry. Excellent hotel and really good value for money. Tip pay the extra £10 per couple for breakfast as is very good for the money. We would definitely stay again. Well done.

Pleasant Experience

Easy check in - Friendly staff -Superior room was large with view over the lake and came with table and 2 chairs as well as the usual dressing table ,wardrobe etc. Room servicing - cleaning etc was by request only but did not find this a problem Overall a pleasant experience

Better than expected.

We were in room 34. It was a spacious room which was clean and comfortable; some creaky floors though. Evening meal and breakfast both good and staff helpful.

Had a lovely stay

Had a lovely stay here, staff were polite, room was clean and bed was comfy. The location was great. We stayed for 3 nights but the room was not cleaned once. It was not a problem for us as we kept it clean but other people might not feel the same.

Nice night at The Windermere Hotel

A lovely one night stay at The Windermere Hotel. Really nice staff and a lovely bed to rest your head after a day out in Bowness for drinks and a meal. Very decent breakfast too. Hotel might need a little ‘love’ but I’d definitely stay there again

Short stay

The hotel is situated right next to the station and town centre! It is away from the lake though. The hotel is ok, service was good and breakfast was good! However the rooms and bathroom will need to be renovated and are old fashioned! A fridge would have been good and the heating switches off which made it cold for us, especially when you are there in winter months.

2/10 Poor

Avoid at all costs - hotel in disrepair

The hotel is in very poor condition and dated The hinge to our door was loose and the door was wobbly, there were parts of the floor which were sunken and the gap for the toilet was tiny - we were visiting the toilets downstairs as we found the toilet inaccessible! The room was also dirty in places Very disappointed and ruined our weekend away in the Lakes.
Karranveer, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Tiny room

Probably the most basic/ smallest room we’ve stayed in for years! If you’re looking for a budget hotel, good location. But bed was to small and uncomfortable. Don’t think I’d stay again
