Scafell Hotel  

Excellent facilities and very helpful reception staff.

Although most of the restaurant staff were excellent one, in particular, was not interested in our complaint about the tough meat served at dinner one evening.

Good location, friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere,nice decor,nice public bar with food

Food in the restaurant is a little overpriced,so we used the public bar

I booked this hotel for my wife and I for one night as a base for walking around Borrowdale. The welcome was friendly and first impressions were good - the room was well decorated and the extra deep bath was very welcome after a long day walking. We were also very impressed with the attitude of the hotel towards having our dog - she was welcome anywhere except the restaurant, which was a refreshing change. The food was good quality and the staff efficient and friendly. An excellent place to base yourself, I would recommend it to anyone, especially those who go to the lakes to walk with their dog.

This is the third time we have stayed at the scafell hotel and we will certainly stop again. The location is fantastic for walking and relaxation, borrowdale has to be one of britains finest valleys and keswick is a short drive away. Breakfast and the breakfast room is very good, the ramblers bar is a great place for a pint with good atmosphere. The hotel lounge and bar are fabulous particularly with the roaring fires in winter. Friendly staff.

Good staff and facilities. Reasonable breakfast selection served with a smile. Very comfortable lounge and cocktail bar with welcoming open fires to take the chill off a January night. Rooms were very comfortable and pleasantly warm. Dog friendly.

Nothing major, the adjoining pub next door was pleasant enough with a good selection beers etc. Nice open fire. Food was only average. Lack of internet facilities in the hotel is unusual these days especially not having any mobile phone coverage too... But maybe that was a plus actually.

Small yet very friendly hotel with great staff. Ideal location for walking and visits to the Lakes. Lovely log fires were very welcoming on a dreadfully wet couple of days.

Staff excellent and very friendly. Comfortable room-slept well. No one can get to on a mobile.

Disappointed that I could not get signal for dab radio which I had brought with me. Evening meals were a little on expensive side.

Good hotel in good location sensibly priced with great breakfast. The bar served good food and real ale. Excellent all round

Breakfast not served until 8.00am A shame really because we wanted to be off earlier than that but it was worth waiting for!

Great location, very cosy ticks all the boxes, third visit and will be going again.

The hotel is gorgeous, all staff with a warm welcome and the owner is a Sir! We went there to celebrate my birthday! We will be back on february!

All of he staff without exception were delightful. The accommodation was excellent and the hotel atmosphere warm and comfortable. The food was wonderful. The location is perfect with walks of all grades from the door.

Very welcoming from the moment we arrived. Excellent accommodation in a beautiful location.

The hotel has been beautifully refurbished throughout. The room was small but decorated and furnished to a very high standard and the bathroom was very modern, clean and luxurious. All the common areas were immaculate and there was a very relaxed atmosphere. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was excellent and good value for money. All in all there was nothing I didn't like about this hotel.
