Nothing
Very friendly staff. Hotel did not have riom I wanted first night but when one was available 2nd nifht theu swapped for me which was very good of them
Not a complaint and was fine, but guests in the chalet outside hotel will have people making a little noise outside in garden bar...mostly chatter though. Not a problem if you are there for a drink and the garden is cleared around 10. Just put that for information
Great location, big rooms.
Staff were very friendly and efficient when dealing with the emergency situation that followed a power surge to the hotel. The young barman was particularly helpful.
Loved the history of the place, its was a stunning building inside and out, lovely bar and cosy but spacious room with all the amenities needed. It was also immaculatey clean. The staff were really friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back
There isn't anything we disliked
Excellent 👍
Nothing 👍
The location is excellent very central and within easy walking distance of the shops and the bus station, which made getting around Keswick really convenient. From the moment I checked in, the service was excellent. The girl at check-in explained everything very clearly and kindly, including how to access the hotel if I returned after 10pm. The room was spotless, and the bathroom was very clean and spacious. The front-of-house team seemed quite small, but despite that, they did a fantastic job managing the bar, restaurant and guests. Dinner time was particularly busy, yet the service remained great. The girl serving me was incredibly active and attentive throughout, always with a lovely smile. I only wish I had caught the staff members’ names so I could give them a proper shout-out. The menu had a good selection, and the food was tasty. absolutely nothing to complain about. Overall, what stood out most was the warm, friendly and hardworking staff who made the stay very enjoyable.
Honestly, there was nothing I disliked. I noticed some reviews mentioning that the hotel and pub are a little dated, but I actually think the traditional, antique character is what makes this place unique and gives it its charm. I personally wouldn’t want that to change
Location. Friendly staff.
Mattress’s need updating.
Location
No parking, no aircon, bit tired
Basic, but clean and comfortable. Well situated
Old building so bathrooms could do with a little improvement. Lovely hot water but toilet not flushing to it's best!
Staff were friendly, room was lovely and spacious. Couldn't hear the live performance downstairs, which was surprising! Great access to the shops and local area.
No sound proofing. Could hear people showering as if they were in the same room as us. Quite warm in the room.
Conveniently placed- everything is within good walking distance. The room was very basic but had everything we needed.
The shower wasn’t the best - the holder was broken so you could only shower if you held it or if you placed it on the holder it shoots all over
Die zentrale Lage des Hotels hat uns sehr gefallen, auch die gemütliche Bar
Ein Hinweis darauf, dass man an der Rückseite des Hotels den Parkplatz für das Ein-/ Ausladen nutzen kann hat gefehlt
The location
The toilet seat kept sliding out of position,asked for it to be repaired...it wasn't! Wardrobe know came off in hand. Shower bracket wasn't fitted to wall properly. Very dated,needs a refurbishment
Right in the centre
Wi/Fi issues
Very central, ideal
Large bathroom but very small shower
Close to travel links, and food places and hikes
Nothing to complain about
Location and pleasant staff
Was a bit dated.
Great location and staff
It was very tired and the shower was tiny!
Die Lage ist Zentral. Dementsprechend in der Samstagnacht laut. Es ist ein altes Hotel und die Ausstattung auch. Dennoch sind die Betten komfortabel, Wäsche sauber und Pflegeprodukte stehen bereit. Fenster kann man nur sehr wenig öffnen. Badezimmer ist gross, Duschkabine sehr klein ,ein wenig Schimmel in den Ecken. Für 1 Nacht war es für uns in Familienzimmer ok
Dusche mit Schimmel in den Ecken
The breakfast was very good, the hotel is in a great central location.
(Nothing to do with the staff) but I am not sure what has happened, but going back two years ago this bar always seemed to be full of customers through the evening at weekends when we visited. This year the pub seemed to be much less frequented. Not sure if the brewery has made any changes that have affected this.
Was central
That breakfast wasn't included.there said cause we booked with booking.com we had to pay extra
Location
Decor needs updating
The vegetable sausages were good substitute for meat sausages and the breakfast on the whole was good. The rest of the meals were very good, a good range all freshly done. The staff made every effort to grant us our request, within availability
We would have like more choice for breakfast, not all cooked breakfast. Possibly some porridge, cereals or pastry. Maybe more of a range of hot drinks also We also would have liked more variety of vegetables or salads..
The ambience and the bar.
The pillows
Massive room (ask for room 3!) and massive bathroom. A bit dated but it’s a very old property and fabulous location.
Nothing.
It was clean,a bit quirky and close to all the amenities
Nothing realy
Filthy bathrooms and dusty rooms. Never stayed in a place as dirty. Notified staff and still didn’t clean the bathroom.
Cleanliness
The room was excellent for its size and general comfort. The meals in the pub were good.
The bed was a bit uncomfortable, there was no air conditioning, and there was no parking.
Location is extremely central. Room was fine for the money. Traffic does pass by but not at reasonable hours. Staff were all very pleasant, although girl covering breakfast could've been more helpful. Breakfast was fairly priced. The bar closed at 9pm, basically after the dinner crowd left. This was a Friday night in the height of summer, which we thought a bit odd.
The room was okay. Bathroom door was very difficult to close. It was a hot night, and the room was hot too. It's rare you get the temps we had so understandably there's no Aircon. There was a small fan. Shower nozzle settings weren't fully working but water was hot and powerful enough.
Location, history and decor
I didn’t find it sooner!
Good location
No parking No breakfast in a room for £120 No bathroom curtain on the main road-facing window One of the beds had springs sticking through Nothing special for the price
Friendly atmosphere, central location, friendly staff
Lack of mini fridge to keep items cool
Lovely staff
Room needs some attention. Bath side broken ceiling needs repair
Excellent breakfast, lots of choice and very reasonable price. Location excellent, no parking but not far from car parks , there is a bay to park in to drop off/collect luggage. Lovely friendly staff.
Room was spotless but a little ‘tired’.
Convenient, easy access and ideal for overnight stay for a show at theatre by the lake
Noisy we were right next to a boiler or something which kept kicking in every few minutes. Bathroom although clean desperately needed an upgrade
Very hot in room , no fan , no fan offered , and no fan when we asked for one ,
Room to hot and no ventilation
Fantastic location
A very central location in Keswick. A very comfortable room.
Good location had character
A little bit dirty and needed a refresh wall paper peeling off and furniture need a paint.
The staff are very helpful and accommodating
Very old interior, not value for money from my experience with other places I used nearby.
Central hotel- no parking. But there is payable parking nearby. Check in was good. Food was good. One polite member of staff at reception. One polite waitress.
One member of staff extremely rude, Both ours rooms 4 & 3 were filthy. Black mould are dirty. Asked for the bathroom to be cleaned on arrival the girl beginning with S was helpful and pleasant. She apologised and said they would do and clearly didn’t. Went to speak to another lady and her attitude was rude, saying it was the shower door silcone that needed replaced. It was clearly more than that from the images, the dust on skirting boards, the chair was filthy, under beds had bottle tops so beds were never moved. I said to the girl with the darker hair up (bigger girl) we wouldn’t be back to stay in hotel dirty. Her response was “that’s fine then” never experienced such a rude member of staff. If that’s how your speak to guests she needs some customer service training. We won’t be back and wouldn’t recommend.
Great host and very helpfull
Too noisy early morning from the street , could do with a vacuum around the edges but other than that we'll worththe money
Great location, typical old Lakeland hotel....lovely staff and a decent breakfast
Nothing really that wasnt to be expected
The staff were all pleasant and helpful. Bedroom was a good size. Food was OK
Despite the bathroom being quite large the shower was a tiny cubicle. There was a lot of street noise that the window didn't block.
The place had lots of character, the staff were very friendly, spotlessly clean, big room with everything you need and the shower was very powerful, loved it.
Maybe the room could use a bit of a refresh, nothing too major, lick of paint, just a few little touches
Paid for breakfast was very good. Huge portion. Building in need of a serious upgrade. Bed was very comfortable but the room very dated. Bar prices and food very reasonable compared to other vendors in town.
Add on breakfast , decent price. Good size room , pet friendly.
Fantastic staff, in an excellent location.
Superb food and drink, amazing staff. Bathroom in our room could benefit from a refresh but absolutely served its purpose!
Comfortable. Location. Beautiful old building.
Location and exceptionally friendly and competent staff.Provided cake for our birthday party and decorated the table unasked
Room 2 was extremely hot.Unable to open the window at all.
Great central hotel. Felt welcome and food and staff great.
Staff were brilliant, amiable and helpful
N:a
The staff are amazing, nothing is too much trouble and they are all so friendly
Location
Old bad decor no remote for TV dated furniture
Nice room with Bathroom and Toilet
Staff were great. Really welcoming and happy to help. Also bed was super comfy. Lovely sheets.
Nothing I didn't like at all. Just remember to pick up some water. Easy when there's a shop next door.
Good location , pleasant staff
Building is obviously very old and it needs a refurbishment, but it was all we needed!
Locatie, kamer
De bedden, je rolde naar elkaar toe, matrassen waren erg zacht.
Central.
Walks really thin so you can hear everything from next door.
Great location. Friendly staff. Warm and comfortable
Nothing.
Great location
Very dated and not very clean
Staff were very friendly. Breakfast was really nice, and it was easy enough to add the breakfast to the stay using their online portal. The location was ideal.
N/A
Good beers and hot showers
A bit worn looking
Great location. Great value breakfast. Great staff.
Work in and around hotel which we were not informed about prior to visit. Tired and worn room, strange smell in room (13) Poor corridor lighting at night/morning.
Very Central and friendly
Bedroom ok
Nobody on reception on our arrival. No plug in bathroom sink. Kettle lid broken (the hinge bit had broken off), and evidently just left. Shower head didn't fit anywhere. No parking. Food poor. General impression, the place is run on a minimum cost basis, with poor quality control.
Location
Room 13 was very worn out, holes in the wall presumably where fittings had been pulled out, needed redecorating at the least, bathroom was functional but mould and mildew on the grout etc. Accept it’s an old building but not an excuse for that state of decoration in bedroom and en-suite
Good value, fab breakfast, great location, friendly helpful staff.
There was nothing not to like!
Location good went down for breakfast now one about so packed up and left
The room was cold Sunday night could of done with heating on as was frozen after my shower and cold through the night and in the morning my husband was even cold and he is usually warm
Good location, comfortable bed.
Bit dated and no longer offer any parking. Staff not too helpful. Drinks pricey.
The hotel is in a great location. The room was clean and well appointed. The staff were all very friendly and helpful.
Happy with everything.
Location and staff very friendly
Hotel needs a good bit of refurbishment
Great location, room 10 had views of the fells in the distance
Felt a bit tired and I had pigeons join me in the room as they like coming in through the open windows.
