Very dated bedroom, two armchairs in bedroom were very old and in poor condition. The bathroom smelled very damp and foisty, there was lots of mould in the shower cubicle on the ceiling and around the tiles. The bed was comfy and the room was warm and quiet.

VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH OUR STAY. WE FEEL THIS HOTEL IS IN SERIOUS NEED OF A REFURB .

Very friendly staff

2.0 / 10.0

I stayed at the Macdonald Tickled Trout Hotel and unfortunately found the room in a poor state—thick dust under the bed, cobwebs, exposed wiring in the corner, and a mouse that ran across the floor and vanished beneath peeling carpet. That said, the woman on reception was fantastic—she was completely understanding, didn’t question my concerns, and immediately issued a full refund, along with free breakfast and parking. No fuss, no pushback—she handled it professionally and with empathy. The hotel clearly has major maintenance and cleanliness issues to fix, but I can’t fault the staff on duty for how they handled it.

2.0 / 10.0

Cosmetically poor and in need of renovation. Very few staying here but easy parking and just off the M6.

5.0 / 10.0

Fantastic room on the ground floor which is what I asked for, friendly staff, lovely lake at the back. Food not so good

8.0 / 10.0

The staff were very helpful and friendly when we arred. The hotel suited our purpose however the corrdors smelled of damp, and there was no heating in bathroom..

3.0 / 10.0

Hotel is very tired! Rooms were ok (website photos are very definitely photo shopped!) Rooms were really hot despite the weather not being that hot, there was a fan in the room but that did little to cool the room down. Couldn't open windowsxas bugs/flies were flying around outside. Food was really good including breakfast but the breakfast staff were more interested in hiding round the corner chatting. Coukd be a fantastic venue but definitely needs updating.

2.0 / 10.0

The hotel needs a make over. The carpets are thread bare. The towels have seen better days. The sink in the bathroom needs a dam good clean.

4.0 / 10.0

Nice hotel but had a long walk to room. Could do with more light in the room

4.0 / 10.0

As a business user the Tickled Trout Hotel adequately provides for all my requirements. Location, parking, excellent friendly staff, clean comfortable rooms and a consistently good restaurant. I will be visiting again very soon.

2.0 / 10.0

Stayed here about 5 years ago and as I had business nearby seemed the right choice.. however, the rooms are neglected. Dust everywhere, skirting, TV, curtains and pelmet.. obviously not seen a Hoover in many months.. bathroom is quite small and who decided to put the loo so damned close to the wall?? You need to be a contortionist to wipe! Hairs in the sink and some sort of substance around the plug hole? Window over rider not secured to the window and quite a bit of road noise from M6. Food and drink is actually decent quality (except the chips as more like soggy raosties) but very high cost. Reduction on the portion size perhaps to bring costs back inline? First negative review I have had to leave in a long time. Would only come back if it was brought back to standard of previous years. Such a shame as it’s a lovely location next to the river with convenient links to the motorway and for Lake District.

Worst hotel night ive ever had. And this hotel was great when stayed previously. Carpet soaking in part of room. Smell of damp. So disapponting , as had great stay previously. Such shame, wont be staying again. If i could get a refund i would. Will be complaining to management, at tickled trout. Thank you.

Has seen better days, the bed in our room had collapsed so was very uncomfortable to sleep in

4.0 / 10.0

I should have known, it was so cheap, but the place is very run down and tired. And it is a motorway service hotel, it seemed to do well for British Gas engineers staying there. But I won’t be back. The windows don’t fully seal so there was a slight bit of motorway noise. Bathroom while clean is a bit worn and rusty. Hot water was intermittent. Furniture probably not updated since the 90s

4.0 / 10.0

Room completely poor. Door open on arrival and hard to shut. Keyfob didn't work lighting. One pillow only on double bed. No towels provided. Room was cold as radiator turned off. Carpet had not been hoovered and thick dust on furniture. Housekeeping appeared non existant as during our stay our cups were not even washed. There was no card in the room telling us how to call reception and so we had to keep going downstairs to report issues. Upon checkout we were not asked about our stay and were not told we needed a code to lift the exit car park barrier. A passerby helped us leave.

6.0 / 10.0

It's like a property in the past. Basics were OK. If you need to charge anything forget it nevermind having to refresh the wifi every time you mobe 10 yards. The other thing is that the evening staff were very distracted never mind the devils sugar that the family at the othe side of the bar were on whilst trying to have a glass of wine while trying to relax in the late evening.

5.0 / 10.0

What a lovely surprise this place was. It’s a little dated but was clean and very comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. We have paid a lot more for a lot less. Room and en-suite were great with a lovely view of the river.

10.0 / 10.0

The hotel itself is really nice, very clean and the bed was very comfortable Set on a lovely river so nice scenery Breakfast was really nice and plenty of choice The only downside is that it is on a difficult junction on the motorway

1.0 / 10.0

Dreadful, I won’t be staying there again. The welcome was terrible (made to wait whilst paperwork, not related to my stay, was completed, and then a very surly “Surname” and the key handed over without any grace at all), the bedside table was broken and clearly in danger of collapsing, no sockets anywhere near the bed (I have a sleep apnea machine, I had to sleep on the other side of the bed to enable it to reach at a real stretch) and then, despite making it very clear I was dairy intolerant (which they’d acknowledged) I was served dinner with a creamy sauce. When I queried that, and they confirmed it was full of dairy, they changed my plate and supplied a fresh potato pancake but did not offer fresh veg and did not apologise.

Feels poor to have a parking charge added on arrival after paying up front on Hotel’s dot Com app. An added expense and I still think the app is just not clear enough. Not a great Customer experience and obviously you then view the hotel with different eyes. It’s tired as a facility but room was spacious but they were not ready for a 7am breakfast today so it was all a bit of a rush. Not a wonderful breakfast buffet but adequate. In total need of decorating. Good location by the Motorway.

8.0 / 10.0

Nothing wrong, only downside was paying for parking as never experienced this before, the only way to get there is drive, I thought that a stupid idea,

6.0 / 10.0

Having stayed with them before I was disappointed with the breakfast no vegan sausage and no white bread for 2 day's out of 4. Room cleaning was also hit and miss failure to restock the tea and milk. Will reconsider staying in the future.
