Fantastic Hotel in the centre...

Liked: Excellent hotel right in the middle of Keswick town centre. Check in took less than a minute & we were up in our room. which was comfortable & sparkling clean. Bathroom was lovey & very clean with an excellent shower & bath towels the size of a small African country. We chose the Tapas sharing menu & the food was really good which came with a choice of Red or white Sangria. I didn't know White Sangria was a thing..I thought it was always red. Oh well shows what I know. Bed was extremely comfortable although I didn't really get on with the pillows which were huge but very squashy.Breakfast was again superb...a Full English (well you've got to haven't you) with as much toast, cereal pastries etc as you could manage. Lovely. I didn't eat again all day.Staff were all very friendly & efficient. Certainly gets a highly recommended from me
Disliked: Teeny moan in that there were only two tea bags in the room which seemed a bit mean. We asked at reception for a few more & were given a handful of tea bags & milk sachets so not really a problem

A great stay, very comfortable...

Liked: The hotel staff were friendly and welcoming. The hotel was very clean and well presented. It's location is fantastic in the vibrant centre of the town. The breakfast was delicious, served by friendly staff.
Disliked: The only downside is the fact that dogs are allowed to stay in the hotel. A dog was barking in a room along from our room. We would be unhappy if we had to stay in an adjacent room.

Lovely stay

Liked: The hotel was lovely, very fresh and clean looking. The staff were friendly and welcoming, the breakfast service was impeccable and lovely food.
Disliked: Sadly, the carpark was a nightmare, although a reduction in price through the hotel, it took over an hour to find a space due to it being so busy. The bathroom seal around the bath taps was in need of repair, and a deep clean on the shower head was required. The bed, although a very good size, was hard to sleep on and lacked comfort.
