The staff were welcoming from the front gate to the reception to Andy the concierge. The hotel was very clean as was the room and facilities. The hot tub was always kept at 40 degrees and was an absolute delight to use.

The hotel is very well decorated and looks lovely! The spa is lovely, we used it 2 out of 3 days, hot tubs lovely and warm, also has a cold pool, sauna and steam room, all very good! The Asian restaurant was really good, with great staff and lovely atmosphere, it was full on a Monday evening it’s that nice!! My only negative is they don’t have an electric car charger but they have some in Bowness not far away.
Bedroom without a hot tub. Very spacious and well equipped!

Great hotel in the heart of Windermere, short walk to lake where boats go on the trips and close to shops. Slight hill getting back up to hotel. Lovely cocktail bar, pub and eating areas. Breakfast was fab. Hot tub was worth it after a day walking it was so nice to relax in. Spotlessly clean and as the old saying goes ‘you get what you pay for’; worth every penny.

Lovely stay at the lakes hotel and spa. Reccomend booking a room with a hot tub The only reccomendation would be to provide guests with time slots for spa access as it was extremely busy. However, as expected due to it being a Saturday.
