Great location and river views

The Riverside Hotel is in a great location! Walking distance of downtown Kendal, close to many cafes, pubs, restaurants, and shopping. The rooms could use some TLC and updating, but it was a surprisingly large room with an excellent view of the river. I would stay here again.

Good

Comfortable rooms and clean bathroom. However the room was dusty and had spider webs all over including the lights. Staff were super friendly and breakfast was spot on. Location was great and free parking was a great perk

Short break in Kendal

We were upgraded to a suite which was very spacious. The bed was comfortable and we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The gym and pool are very good.
George, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good central Kendal location

Very spacious and clean rooms with excellent tea, coffee and hot chocolate, but please, three teabags for a room for two? Leisure facilities were excellent and quiet when we visited. The car park is tight, so larger vehicles beware. Walking distance from town centre.
Andrew, 1-night trip

Overnight stay

Room was too warm no fan found, noise from outside bar because window had to stay open. Don’t think there was a lot the hotel could do about this in this weather. However pleasant stay and great staff

Christopher, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Ok base to go exploring.

Uncomfortable stay. I could feel the springs in the bed and it was far too soft. Felt like I was sleeping on the base. Although was very clean but outdated. Breakfast was very basic. Wasn’t to my liking with the hard crispy hash browns and rubbery mushrooms.
Martin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Friendly hotel and ideally situated in Kendal.
Nicholas, 3-night trip

Noisy neighbours

The hotel was lovely however not their fault but our neighbours room 407 which was an adjoining room to ours came in very late and had a very loud argument- this then continued at 8am this morning- we were coming for a leisurely break- early dinner with friends and a lie in- sadly we have come home worn out and needing a nap!!!

Samuel, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Pleasent stay

We had a lovely stay un a family room. Could do with updating in the room. A couple of things was broken(bath mixer fell iff and was moldy) also the drawes trim was hanging off. Otherwise clean and well topped up with supplies. Had everything we needed. Lots if clean towels too. Couldn't use the pool due to it been very small and alway over crowded. Bat/restaurant was nice, food was ok but disappointed with the fish&chips, fish was a suze of a fish finger. All staff was polite and friendly. Beautiful part of the lake district. I would highly recommend.
