Fantastic stay at this hotel. Very clean, rooms are spacious and well equipped. Great breakfast. The highlight was the very friendly staff and the welcoming nature of everyone there to our dogs. Most places seem to take dogs begrudgingly, but this hotel goes all out for furry family members. We were so impressed! Also breakfast was excellent and plentiful. Would not hesitate to stay again when walking in the Lakes.

Everything was excellent because it was over Christmas there was a skeleton staff on duty but you wouldn't have noticed that where all so nice and helpful. Breakfast was lovely and a good choice. Room was clean and very comfortable and it's close to all the areas

The staff greeting you fantastic . Rooms very comfortable. Breakfast the staff kept everything going smoothly.
When getting hot drinks the queue when busy ran into people trying to make toast and getting to the cereals but only when it was very busy.

The bed are not at all comfortable . Even the AC was not working. The breakfast items got shortage. Really disappointing
10.0 / 10.0
The breakfast was great although there was a long wait for some of the breakfast items to come out but they were particularly busy on that weekend.
There needs to be greater focus or reminders about the payment required for the car park as I got home to a letter charging me ÂŁ100 for dropping my passenger off in the car park even though I was only there 12 minutes. I did stay as a guest and wasn't reminded to include my details. it was raining significantly so I was concentrating on my partner who was unwell and also not getting too wet!

There weren't vegetarian options at breakfast, that was the only negative we had with outstay.

Excellent hotel, stayed here for three nights. Much more than what you’d expect in a chain hotel - people make all the difference. Responsive, alert, cheerful people all across the ranks at the hotel. The breakfast spread is quite reasonable as well, enough to have a pleasant start and get going for your day. They had a handful of choices of cereals, yoghurt, fruit compote, fruit juices, bread, toaster, muffins, croissants, sausages, vegan sausages (on request), scrambled egg, baked beans, hash browns, and bacon put out In reasonable quantities for breakfast, and an excellent hot drinks machine. The breakfast space is well-lit, well organised and pleasant. They have a microwave in the reception to warm up any food if you needed at any time of the day. The vibe in the restaurant was a happy one, even right into the middle of the night. There is good parking available at the overflow car park (Atkinson car park) just down the road from the hotel. The hotel is situated ten minutes walking distance from the centre of the town, which has nearly all the high street shops. There are three supermarkets within minutes. In spite of the location, all the spaces around the hotel were quite tranquil.
The hotel also provided good connectivity to other parts of Lake District - it took us just over an hour to reach the Windermere lake and twenty minutes to Roa island, for example.
The free Wi-Fi was quite good too.
Would have loved the hotel to have a gym and a swimming pool. We went to the Barrow Leisure Park that is half an hour away instead. The fact that the leisure park has very specific times and opened only in the afternoon made organising things quite awkward.

Breakfast ok if you got up early, later and things cold and shortage
booking in and getting charged for parking at the desk machine more or less shoved in your face . Attitude of the booking in one person. The rest of the staff helpful and friendly. Tv not working properly ' Had someone out three times.

There was no evening meal available because the hotel had booked coach parties every night for the four nights of our stay. All dining tables were reserved for the coach parties leaving no spaces for the normal guests. This is a hotel we like and use regular, this has now changed our views for future.

Good location, right near the centre of town and the naval facilities. Wonderful Italian restaurant right next door, love that place. The hotel was pleasant and reliable. Good enough overall. Room was comfortable.
Minimal facilities. Room not comfortable for working more than an hour or two.
