Pet friendly hotel whose public areas and amenities are very good with a recently refurbished gym and a pool . The rooms are a little dated but All the staff were friendly and helpful and we thought the hotel was good value for money as it’s very centrally located in Kendal and only a of minutes walk from the shopping area . It also has its own covered parking which is included. We will stay again

Very clean room with an amazing view. Right on the river and over the bridge is straight into town. Loved the balcony bar, drinks were a little expensive in hotel but the view made up for it. Pool and hot tub were very clean a little dated but didn’t matter. Bed was so so comfy and room was always warm and very Cosy. Reception staff always there for anything needed. Couldn’t recommend this hotel enough and will definitely be back

Central location, easy walking distance to the centre of Kendal. Lots of restaurant options in town centre. Spa area was enjoyable although can get crowded as pool is small. Easy parking. Brandon at the Tanners Bar was a star, fab service. Tasty fish & chips served at Tanners. Breakfast was also good. Helpful, friendly staff.

Liked: Staff & service
It’s a well rated 3 star hotel. Great location and free parking (limited spaces) in a lovely small town, which is ideal for visiting the more popular lakes and attractions. Unfortunately breakfast wasn’t very good, food had obviously been out a long time and not refreshed. Coffee was sadly undrinkable - BUT all staff were lovely and polite and helpful. We had a family room which was a great size. It was quite a hot day and without air conditioning was too warm to sleep well. There was a fan provided but it was too small to have any impact really. Despite the weather the room was clean and had everything you might need. The only downside was the bath drain was quite blocked as shower water took forever to drain and after a few hours of no use was very smelly. So we just ran the water as soon we entered the room to clear it and well the weather was amazing so we couldn’t really complain about that. It’s a good option if you’re looking for a good base to visit the area. Their Tanners bar served decent food (guess different chef from breakfast) and nice atmosphere at reasonable prices.

We stayed for one night as a stop over on our way back from Scotland to the South Coast. It was very good for our purposes with a convenient parking space. The disadvantage was the hot weather and trying to sleep with no air conditioning or fridge in the room for a cold drink. The breakfast wasn’t brilliant with lots of uncleared tables and stained cups. Think the dishwasher wasn’t working properly maybe? Staff were friendly and excellent in their roles. It’s just all a bit tired. It smelt of stale food when we arrived. Very hot and smothering inside the building. I would not recommend a visit here in the Summer. It was value for money though and we were fine for one night. Our room had a nice view of the river.
