Great location with just a short walk to the lake. All of the staff were friendly & helpful. The room was very clean & well presented with a lovely view from the balcony. The food was great too

We just got back from a short stay here the location is perfect short distance to lake an shops, however I do I feel the parking is expensive at £12 per night. We ate in evening in hotel terrace and food was lovely and had a good choice for kids, again breakfast had good variety of hot and cold options we arrived at 8am and there was already a few people seats so I can imagine it gets busy in peak season. Room was clean and spacious. Spa was lovely and allowed children until 2pm however my daughter wasn't a fan so we didn't stay long. Overall great facilities and plenty options to eat an drink on site for those who dont want to go back out.

We have stayed in a lot of hotels in the area but the lakes hotel is by far the best, the hotel was amazing and the staff were brilliant from the moment we arrived. We will be back!

Lovely staff, the receptionist gave us a free room upgrade to a hot tub room! The pool and spa were immaculate and modern! We had an amazing meal at the Mizumi restaurant! Nothing less than 5 star here, would recommend to anyone!

Booked a one night stay for my partners birthday mid April. We both really enjoyed ourselves and we’re welcomed with a complimentary drink. The hotel itself is beautiful and very clean and classy. Our standard room was still pretty roomy and homely. Robes and slippers provided in your room which I lived in. Bed was comfy. Our highlights were the lovely cocktail bar and terrace, the Asian restaurant and the lake Windermere walks/ scenes, restaurants and amenities nearby in very walkable distance. Although we definitely felt relaxed after the spa and found it useful being able to use it before check in time, it was basically a quite a small dark hot room with the pools, jacuzzi, steam room, sauna, cold plunge pool all packed in the small space. The spa amenities were quite good but just very small and compact so I wouldn’t like to be there when it’s busy as there was already a lack of seating areas when we went and there weren’t many people there. Would definitely come back for the hotel again but not too sure I would come back just for the spa, but this may be personal preference as I prefer a big airy spa with views of the Lake District, with plenty of different seating areas. Thanks Lakes hotel and spa for overall a really lovely stay! ☺️

We had a lovely time here - staff were all friendly and accommodating for what was a very special weekend for us. The spa facilities were exactly what we were looking for and we loved having the hot tub on our balcony. Our suite was fantastic and dinners at both the Lakeside Terrace and Mizumi restaurants exceeded our expectations. We'll definitely be back!

The property was lovely and the staff helpful. My only issue is that when they serviced the room in the morning they did not adjust cushions on sofa and did not change or clean the mugs and glasses!

Staff very friendly and polite really good stay If I had to pick something it would be that to get to the spa pool you had to walk across car park and then through the pub eating area in your swim wear and robe but other than that would stay again

3rd stay at the hotel. Staff were excellent as always and the food in the cocktail bar was lovely (Tapas) Our only grumble was the shower. We stayed in room 350 which is a cosy double, the room itself is plenty big enough but the bathroom is on the small size. The over bath shower had very little water pressure. Would this stop us coming back? Absolutely not! The place is a real treat.

Spa and pool facilities where fantastic. Room was comfy but one downside of our room, our shower pressure was mediocre, which could of been stronger. The other thing we didn't like was the food from the restaurant I think was a bit basic. Overall other than those little things it was fantastic

Exceeded all expectations!! The impression the staff gave immediately came across from the gate to check in was high standard. The breakfast catered for all and was also a high standard. Facilities, exactly what was advertised. Great having a jacuzzi on the balcony! The bars are great and staff very professional. They had various areas to sit which were all different. We will definitely be visiting again. Thanks.
