Surly, scruffy, unfriendly, Good points. Room clean and bedding fresh, room is what you expect for 3 star stay. Breakfast was basic but... More

OK, let's start by saying it is a cheap place to stay, which is a definate plus, the room was lovely, clean, well appointed for the price, good bathroom. It was on the fourth floor and there isn't a lift! What would have made this a far more positive review is the attitude and conduct of the staff, some of... More

Starting with good points... We paid extra for a superior room (room 21), the room was spacious with a lovely view, a king size bed, and a lovely large bathroom with separate large shower cubicle. The housekeeping couldn't be faulted... spotless room, with clean towels on a daily basis. Having said that, the heating couldn't be controlled from the room... More

A decent place to stay. Newly refurbished room with good amenities. Reasonable value. Just need to be aware that you have to enter through the bar area, which probably should be amended. A really nice breakfast and good location. The car park is useful, however can understand that it can get full and would be difficult for some people to... More

Stayed just for one night but found the room (31) very comfortable with excellent shower. The towels were amazingly thick and soft, by the way. Breakfast was very good, freshly cooked to order and served in pleasant surroundings. We have stayed elsewhere in Ambleside several times but for value and quality of accommodation we would definitely go back to The... More
