Good location, dog friendly hotel
Friendly hotel with good location to explore Ambleside. Dog friendly and even though dogs are not allowed in the restaurant they set up a table in the lounge for you so your dog can accompany you and provide table service. Catered to my needs being gluten free and requiring soya milk and even made my decaffeinated coffee just how I liked it. Will definitely stay again 😄 xx

Excellent location with parking
Excellent location with parking. The hotel was clean and the service friendly. The decor was very old fashioned and dated but sound enough, some light coloured paint would make the building a bit more cheery and bright.

Friendly staff, great location, hotel dated
Hotel has an excellent location right in the middle of Ambleside. Very short walk to shops/pubs/restaurants.
Friendly staff, comfy bed, excellent breakfast. However the Hotel is getting dated and could do with a freshen up, guess it depends what your after and how much time you will spend in the room.

Great position
We stayed in the superior room which had a 4 poster bed. Smallish but very comfortable and excellent value for the money. Breakfast was average. Large car park as well and right on the centre of Ambleside .

Walking holiday in Ambleside
Great location for an easy walk into Ambleside with all its pubs and restaurants. Not a bad walk down to the waterside either. Convenient parking. Friendly staff and great breakfasts.
Rooms were clean and well maintained albeit old- world style. My only complaint was that the shower water pressure was a little lacking - especially if someone else in the building was showering at the same time.
Cute 4 poster bed !!
