    This place suits me perfectly with great facilities like wi-fi, 24-hour reception, and a cozy bar area. I still remember when the staff helped me print documents during my first stay. I’m excited to come back for Christmas!

    beautiful gardens with stunning views of derwentwater nearby

    I loved having such a lovely walk right down to the lake from the beautiful gardens, and my room offered breathtaking views of both the lake and the gardens, making every moment spent there truly special. As a solo traveler, I found the spacious garden area perfect for unwinding after a busy day exploring.

    Stunning lakeside views, beautifully maintained gardens, engaging community events

    Housekeeping could greatly improve cleanliness standards!!! The outdated decor is screaming for a makeover, and poor water pressure is just unacceptable!!!

    stunning views
    good price value

    It was just a well-suited match for a brief weekend stay in Keswick (Cumbria) with good price value. The room had stunning views of Derwentwater, which was a nice way to start the day. If you're a light sleeper, bring ear plugs for the noise from the corridor in the morning.

    tired decor

    The staff were very polite and helpful during our stay.

    The dining room was extremely tatty, with ripped seats and peeling wallpaper.

    beautiful location
    nice breakfast
    attentive service
    room condition
    dining experience
    poor maintenance

    I visited Derwentwater for a couple of nights with my partner. The location is fantastic, right by the lake, offering stunning views and easy access to beautiful walks. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, especially during dinner when the server went the extra mile to recognize my partner's birthday, which felt special. Our room had a comfortable bed and clean sheets, but it showed signs of age. The bathroom needed updating, with some fixtures looking tired and a little shabby. Breakfast was a highlight with plenty of options, including fresh pastries and local produce. However, the dining area felt a bit cold and uninviting during dinner. We also encountered issues with an uneven mattress and a window that didn’t shut properly, which let in quite a bit of light at night. I appreciated the complimentary toiletries, but the lack of a spa advertised was disappointing. Overall, while I loved the location and the staff's hospitality, the rooms could really use some attention and maintenance to match the beauty of the surroundings.

    breathtaking views
    friendly staff
    poor cleanliness
    worn furnishings
    disappointing dining

    Staying in a one-bedroom apartment offered breathtaking views of the surrounding hills and easy access to picturesque walking paths. The staff was friendly and accommodating upon check-in, creating a warm atmosphere. However, the cleanliness left much to be desired, with worn furnishings and an overall need for updates, particularly in the bathroom. The dining experience was disappointing, with cold food and uninviting options, which overshadowed the wonderful location.

    A Hidden Gem in the Lake District

    We loved our stay! The warm welcome from Alex at check-in set the tone for our adventure. The rooms were comfortable, and the all-you-can-eat breakfast was delightful. Pro tip, try to come early for breakfast for the freshest options. The location is perfect for exploring.

    stunning location
    clean room
    low water pressure
    needed maintenance
    limited options

    The location near the lake is stunning, adding charm to the entire experience. Our room was clean and the bedding was immaculate, ensuring a comfortable night's rest. low water pressure in the showers was disappointing and the hotel seemed to require some maintenance. The food was decent, but fresh fruits at breakfast would have been a nice touch.
