Great stay for mountains
Booked to allow direct access on to Helvelyn. The hotel is ideally located on the waste of the village and was great for a few days on the mountains. Staff were friendly and helpful and the bar was great after a hard day with good food.

Would go again
The hotel was perfectly located for walking. The room was very clean there was just some lipstick/ makeup marks on the bathroom wall which I didn't expect as the room was expensive. But overall it was a luxury experience. Breakfast was nice

Nice hotel and the bar downstairs served nice food. The rooms however were very hot, we were provided with a fan and had the windows open but it didnt help much. We booked a room with a lake view and it is not much of a lake view more a car park view.

Average. Overpriced. Staff not particularly friendly especially when bar closes at 11.pm and no further drinks served even to residents. Won't be going back.
