The location of this hotel is great; a short uphill walk into Windermere or a downhill walk into Bowness. Parking is available on site. We had the penthouse suite which consists of a double bedroom, smaller twin bedroom, small lounge (with sauna), bathroom and landing. The suite is in the attic and so has varying ceiling height; fine for me... More

SUMMARY The website massively over sells the hotel and may leave you feeling disappointed by the cost and the amenities. THE GOOD Room was clean and nice, bathroom was new and had a fancy whirlpool bath (which i did not use) with a TV. The lady at check in and the staff serving breakfast in the morning were all polite... More

We are very sad to hear you did not fully enjoy your break away with us. It is clearly stated on our website that the pool and spa you have access to is a ten minute walk away in the centre of Bowness. We do ask guests to choose for dinner on the day, as everything is freshly prepared daily,... More

Booked the New Premier Superior Regal Suite (Rm 7) as a birthday get-away treat and it failed to meet expectations. The website dresses the place up far beyond what it actually delivers and it has to be said that the best thing about the place, is the talented photographer who tooks the snaps for the website. The website ultimately does... More

We are very sad to hear of your disappointment in your recent break with us. The hotel is exactly as shown in the photographs; the Regal suite did have the fireplace wall lightened as guests found commented the room would be better lighter. The Premier Regal Suite is a very popular choice of room, which many people enjoy. We have... More

We booked this hotel for a one night stay and chose the New Contemporary Room. I agree with other comments about the late check in / early check out, which really limits the time you have to use the room facilities which are fantastic. The location is perfect being within 10 min walk from Bowness on Wndermere and Windermere itself,... More

Stayed for one night in the Rydal water room. Room was small but cosy and modern. Very clean throughout hotel and good service.Something for everyone at breakfast. Hotel is in a good location only a five minute walk to both Windermere and Bowness on Windermere.

Thank you for your positive comments, the Rydal Water is a popular room with many returning guests. The Windermere Boutique Hotel is very popular partly due to its fantastic location only 5 minute walk to either Bowness or Windermere. We hope to see you soon. More

We are very happy to hear your granddaughter enjoyed the hot tub as well as yourselves, the best time to use them is when it is chilly outside, even if it is raining.

I find the word 'luxury' used in the description on the website somewhat misleading as it is not necessarily a word I would use to describe the Windermere Boutique Hotel myself.
