We had a great time . The staff were all very friendly,polite and extremely helpful . The bedroom we had (34) was beautiful & so were the corridors leading to it . Very Laura Ashley 😊 The breakfast was fantastic too. The view from the rooms were of scaffolding but will be beautiful I’m sure when fully updated . Would definitely visit again . If only you could control the weather . It rained the whole time . Thank you

Beautiful Hotel

Beautiful hotel with the most amazing views. We couldn't have picked a better hotel to stay at in bowness. Hotel staff very attentive and helpful, the room was gorgeous with the most comfortable bed! Yes there is building work going on but didn't distract from our stay. Already planning to come back in September.

We visited in the middle of a refurbishment which wasn’t a major problem other than our lake view suite was obscured a bit by the scaffolding but we were told about this before our arrival. All the staff were lovely and welcoming as well as extremely helpful. We would definitely go back for another visit soon.

The staff at this hotel were amazing and so kind! Especially Moses who worked at the bar, very professional and polite! The rooms were very clean and spacious. The hotel is under renovations at the moment, so there is scaffolding and the elevators do not work. But they were very good about letting me know ahead of time and offering to put us on the first floor if needed. We would definitely come here again! Thank you to all of the staff! You guys are top notch!

This hotel is perfectly situated for anyone coming by public transport. Excellent bus and taxi service from train station to hotel. Even though our visit coensided with the refurbishment it didn't affect our stay. The staff were really friendly especially Ashley on reception who gave us a lot of advice on different places to visit and nothing was too much trouble a very valued member of staff also giacomo and mosses and jorden were really pleasant and friendly. We will definitely be visiting this hotel again.

Bad experience

The hotel has declined in all levels. The service is very poor and the staff are uncooperative. The elevator does not work, and the room is on the third floor. We have children, so it has become a burden on us, even though we chose the largest family room. The breakfast has become bad. To be honest, I used to stay there before and the breakfast and service were wonderful. But now it has become old and dilapidated, and the service is bad.
