Really enjoyed our stay there. The room was large and modern. The real selling points of this hotel are i) the spa facilities which far exceeded our expectations and really were wonderful ii) the extremely convenient location and easy parking. The hotel staff were also lovely and very helpful. Minor point of feedback is that we stayed during summer and the room seemed very hot during the night, despite opening the window as far as possible. Suggest air conditioning would be helpful if possible

Lovely hotel, excellent staff

We had a problem with the first room we stayed in and the staff could not have been more helpful in finding us another room. Took us to room after room for us to get one perfect for us. Excellent breakfast. Great central location. Easy on-site parking. Everything spot on!

Ample in Ambleside

A great hotel in a prime location . Staff were friendly and attentive. Breakfast was excellent and refreshingly full service no making tea and toast. Parking could be a little challenging at times but it also has some free access to 13amp plugs to charge your car. We had a balcony onto a lovely waterfall but smoking is allowed . Would definitely stay again if in the area. Ambleside is great for vegetarian / vegan.
