All the staff were friendly and attentive. The dining room servers were well on top of their duties, nice menu selection, well prepared food and tasty. Great 4 star hotel, super location and well presented

great location, friendly staff and fabulous breakfast.

From arrival to checking out the stay exceeded our expectations. The breakfast was amazing. We had a spa bath and massive rainfall shower in our room, which had everything and things we didn't expect.

Friendly and helpful staff. Dining room staff especially nice. Loved the bed and the blackout curtains - best sleep we have had in months. Really enjoyed the spa and pool. It was a quite time of year so don’t know what it would be like in peak season. The free parking is a big plus in Ambleside. We came home feeling really relaxed. Glad we booked. Oh and we loved the decor and the occasional chairs.

Breakfast was very good. The room was comfortable and clean. The spa was excellent. The staff were very good and friendly.

the reception are was lovely and comfortable, especially to have a drink at the end of the day! The rooms were clean although we didn’t have any hand wash in the bathroom. We didn’t eat an evening meal but the breakfast was super with friendly and attentive staff- well looked after and nothing too much trouble. The spa is just heaven! Lovely treatments with lovely staff and the pool and outdoor jacuzzi was just gorgeous!

Everything. The room was fantastic as was the location that’s why we keep coming back!

The hotel is very welcoming, well decorated with a warm atmosphere and lovely staff. It's perfectly located in the heart of Ambleside and there are a good range of rooms to choose from.

Great food in the restaurant & a lovely clean pool

Very comfortable, wonderful facilities and fabulous food
