Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Overall the staff here were great and the room I stayed in was clean and well maintained. I liked that fact that I was shown around and I also enjoyed the breakfast. The only slightly negative remark I would have is that I could hear the people next door but it wasn't too bad as they weren't too noisy or anything. I also found my shower head wasn't really giving consistent pressure, again nothing that would take the shine off my stay but its these two reasons made me take off a star. Otherwise though I did think the staff and the facilities were very good and it is very close to windermere and some great walks.

Really nice hotel spa if you’re thinking of a long weekend in Windermere The staff are lovely and helpful and the breakfast was really good! The hotel generally is nice too. Only thing I will say is that the spa section is too small in proportion to the amount of guests that can stay at the hotel, it filled out quickly, to the point where it’s felt like there were too many people in the general area. Steam room and one of the hot tubs didn’t work either which was a bit of a let down. 4/5 overall!
