Nice hotel
Very friendly check in despite being told over the phone we could check in from lunchtime we were told we were too early, but receptionist did offer to store our bags whilst we went out. Room was spacious and light. Towel rail blasting out heat, so the room was stuffy, but we did find the switch to turn it off. Room on front of hotel so lots of road noise which kept us awake most of the night.

My friend and I came to Kendal for an overnight stay and really enjoyed our time at the County Hotel. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Food was lovely and very reasonable. Would stay again.

This hotel scammed us. Despite booking and paying for a double room, they pretended Expedia had only booked a single…and said they had no rooms left. They told another couple arriving later the same evening the same lie. They had clearly rebooked our rooms as soon as they could charge a higher - peak season - rate. Appalling - no one should stay here!

Lovely quiet night in a very clean room.
The County Hotel Receptionist was very,very helpful, checking that I knew where to find the free car parking across the road from the hotel. I thought the room might be rather noisy, with an extract fan outside the window. The Receptionist was able to reassure me that this was the kitchen extractor which would be turned off by 21.00. It was, and I had a lovely quiet night in a very clean room.

Liked: Cleanliness
The rooms were clean enough. On the small side. The bed was comfortable. Pillows could have been better. People should be made aware this hotel is partnered with a tour bus company. So anyone booked with the tour gets priority over other guests. Which if you don’t know this before booking, I don’t think it’s fair. When we arrived there was already two tour buses of people there. They had access to the restaurant and bar area. There was entertainment which you could hear right throughout the hotel. So if you wanted an early night, forget about it. We were only given a half hour time slot for breakfast. 9-9:30. So if you wanted to have an early start, it wasn’t happening. The breakfast staff were abrasive. They got my order wrong and mine didn’t arrive until nearly everyone else at my tables was done. We all said the food was not very hot. The choice of food wasn’t the best unless you like very basic food. My fathers bread was dripping with grease. Probably would have had a better breakfast from Greggs. The doors in the hotel need the catches fixed, as all you hear first thing in the morning and at night is slamming doors. I don’t recommend this place nor would we stay here again.

The shower was lukewarm only. The staff were friendly and very accommodating and welcoming when we arrived late due to travel problems. The room was clean and comfortable apart from the shower temperature. It is a short pleasant walk to shops and cafes.

Parking is not ideal or policed!!!
Only worry was parking. I had been informed that I could only park in one place but as I was a female travelling alone I did not feel that this parking was safe enough and had to park elsewhere. There should be a better way to police this issue as the vast majority of cars parked in the allocated area were owned by groups of men none of whom would swap their spots even though they did not need to access their cars at night. Unfortunately due to this matter I won't stay again or be able to recommend the hotel to friends or colleagues.

The room was nice and clean. The shower was not adjustable and dangerously hot so I had to move to a smaller room (didn't get offered any compensation for the hassle or smaller room). In the second room the shower was also very hot although it was bearable when adjusted down, but still extremely hot!!. I must advise that the hot water was a danger to scalding someone especially as the hotel has coach parties of elderly folk visiting (children would also be very at risk). Breakfast was served from 9 which is far too late and really inconvenienced my client which I wasn't happy about. The food was sound and staff were helpful and pleasant. The hotel was ridiculously hot however and the cost of heating and water must be sky-high. I liked the hand sanitiser on the door and foot pump action sanitiser dispensers.
