Kendal Kendal Castle Hotels

"The check in was slow as no staff were about and had to wait for a while. However staff were welcoming and helpful and approachable. The room itself was basic but met the requirements for us. It was quite hot at night and the curtains didn’t do their job very well resulting in our daughter waking at 5.30am. The towels were of a reasonable standard but could do with being replaced. The room was facing onto a main road so traffic noise the next morning was noticeable and woke us up. Breakfast was limited but cooked breakfast was nice choice and came quickly and hot. "

"I booked the Shakespeare about three weeks ago. When I arrived it was shut and had apparently been closed for some time. I had to find emergency accommodation at emergency accommodation cost. Extremely stressful."

"Had a superb stay here, would definitely stay again. Cooked breakfast and cereal/fruit platter was fantastic. Lovely host who is very welcoming and helpful. Its a good location in Kendal, away from the busy pubs but is only a short walk to the shopping high street."

"We have stayed at the Riverside hotel a few times. Not been for about 8 years but had a one night stay on the 9th May. It has been one of my favourite hotels but after staying this time the cleanliness has gone down hill. The family room No 3 was very dusty on skirting boards and dado rails and window sill was covered in flies. The shower room needed bleaching around the bottom of the shower. The lamp on the dressing table was extra dusty on top . These things can be put right if you got a good cleaner in. It has certainly put me off staying again. The breakfast was so nice & were the staff. A lovely clean bed but the lack of dusting in the room has let this hotel down. 😪"

"Pool, jacuzzi, steam room, sauna available all day, included in the price. Breakfast great. Room nice. Staff friendly."

"Absolutely fantastic. The bathroom was one of the best I have ever used fantastic shower and bath. New facilities. Truly exceptional. The food in the restaurant was great and the place itself is amazing. Highly recommended."

"Our second stay, wonderful place, beautiful rooms and excellent food . Woujd highly recommend to anyone thinking of booking. Ideally situated too"

"Nice hotel. Reasonably priced."

"It was a pleasure staying here, and I would definitely come back. The place was exceptionally clean—honestly one of the cleanest I’ve ever stayed in. The only downsides were the pillows and the bed. The pillows were too firm and thick, and the bed wasn’t very comfortable. Overall, a lovely place to stay, and I would definitely recommend it to others!"
