cannot fault value for money with friendly and helpful staff, The hotel is in need of a good revamp. At the end of our stay the room was starting to have a damp smell. It did not help our stay was in the middle of the worst weather conditions, which meant we spent too much time in our room. more

Four of us stayed here on a 'Autumn offer', 3 nights B,B & Eve Meal. We cannot tell you how helpful the staff were particularly the restaurant managers and their teams, They were friendly, courteous and made you feel so comfortable and welcome. The food service was efficient, the menu offered something to cater for most tastes, and when it... more

We stayed at The Windermere Hydro Hotel in October 2009. It's the first time we had stayed in this hotel and we were very impressed with the location despite reading various bad reviews. Although our room was dusty and had a bit of a damp feel to it we weren't too put off by this as the majority of our... more

This hotel is out of this world. The staff can't do enough for you - and I mean all the staff from the cleaners, bar staff, receptionists, waiters etc. Our 'room' ended up being a suite consisting of 3 rooms. There was a massive bed and wardrobe, and a trouser press! All our little rooms had views of the lake.... more

We have returned back to Japan after having staying in this hotel. Our rooms were very tiny and were not clean. The decorations was very out of date and getting decayed. One night i was walking back to my room a young english boy was hiding around a corner and jumped out at me screaming. All his friend laughed at... more

The public areas of this hotel are great - as are the staff. For arranging or attending a function, of which it seems to have many, I don't think you could go wrong. The rooms and equipment are well maintained, the staff are welcoming, efficient and very willing to help and the refreshments/food is good. There is an excellent pool... more

We were looking for a short break as a treat for our daughter before leaving for university, so booked a family room for 2 nights. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a beautiful view over lake Windermere - thanks Agnes! The evening meals were included in the price (presumably because it was just out of season), and were thoroughly... more

We phoned enquiring about a family room & staff recommended one with an alcove with bunk beds. Admittedly she pointed out it did not have a lake view but failed to mention that the 'view' from both windows was into what can only be described as a vennel which was so overgrown you could not see daylight. The layout of... more

Only stayed for one night with my husband, 13 yr old son and our little dog Ruby. I booked online, so it was really easy. Pleasant reception staff, did not quibble about the dog, stayed in a room at the top of the hotel over looking the lake which was nice. Lots of American and Japanese tourists stayed there. So... more

Room old fashioned with blankets on beds and dated look. Windows single glazed and so rotten they were about to fall off - you could hear all the people walking back up the road from town after hours. Bathroom had been refurbished well and had a good shower but cheap and nasty shampoo/bath foam packets. Noisy pipes and radiator and... more
