Inside, the building is genteel, the atmosphere is relaxing, and the attentiveness of the staff was second to none. Food was tremendous. Our stay was extremely pleasant. Downside is the... More

The welcome was great, as we were arriving late we arranged sandwiches on arrival and they were brought to us without asking the whole organization of this hotel is fantastic. The rooms were lovely, immaculately clean and the bed comfortable. They provide... More

Dear MrsMIles, Thank you for your review. I am very happy you had such an enjoyable stay. As you say the Groundfloor bedroom is adapted for those with accessibility needs, however as you saw it is also perfect those without such requirements. It is a large room, as are most at Rothay Manor and provides comfortable spacious accommodation. Once again... More

We found Rothay Manor via Travel Zoo, the deal was two night's accommodation with dinner and breakfast included. We arrived on the Friday in the afternoon and first impressions were great; there was snow on the ground outside and there was a lovely roaring log fire in the lounge and fresh cut flowers everywhere. The reception staff were so welcoming,... More
