I liked the location and the garden. The rooms are in need of updating and they were not cleaned during our stay. The television worked on the first day only. The toilet flush needed attention.

Though we came pretty late to the property, we had staff to take care of our check in etc. And also morning breakfast was very good, and the staff were very nice and friendly. Overnight my friend had to work in lobby area for his work, and staff made sure that he was comfortable there.

We booked an over night stay at this hotel for a great price at short notice. Love the location, a picturesque walk into Keswick takes around 25 Minutes. Our room although didn’t have a view was immaculate. The staff were extremely friendly and professional.
