We have been visiting the Rothay Garden for twenty years, ever since we first saw it mentioned in the Yorkshire Post. In those days, long before foot and mouth, a typical guest spent his evening thumbing through the Preston Farmers’ Guardian. We have been elsewhere but keep coming back. We have enjoyed watching the Rothay Garden develop into one of... More

We have stayed a number of times in the past so have watched as the hotel has transformed itself over the past couple of years. So much so that earlier posts, both good and not so good, bear little resemblance to the 'new' Rothay. Whats it's like: 1. Bedrooms. We stayed in a newly refurbished Grasmere room on the first...

Had dinner here on 9/02/12. Brilliant meal overseen by manager Elliot. He gave us a bedroom tour which was amazing and guests described the the hot mosaic tile heated beds in the spa as unrivalled. Whole atmosphere was warm and so pleasing. The owners treat this place as their baby and have given it their best with lovely decor and... More

Stayed here for 1 night and I could not fault anything. Location is fantastic for exploring the lakes and Grasmere is much nicer than neighbouring Ambleside in my opinion. Our room was on the 1st floor with its own balcony overlooking the river. The room wa absolutely spotless - as was the rest of the hotel. The breakfast was amazing... More

We stayed at the Rothay Garden Hotel at the end of January after taking up an offer that I had for a two night break. Our stay included 2 nights in a Loft Suite, breakfast and dinner both days plus a bottle of champagne, some ginger bread and £30 credit in the lounge. We stayed in the Silver Howe suite... More

We're from north Cumbria but it really felt as if you were far away from your troubles and wrapped in a warm, cosy bubble! As soon as we... More

We recently stayed at The Rothay Garden Hotel in Grasmere and felt we must write a review to encourage other travellers to visit. We booked at the last minute to celebrate a birthday, we stayed in a loft suite which was wonderful with a seperate seating area, double shower and relaxing bath, large queen size bed with 2 televisions one...

Stayed here just before xmas managed to get a great rate £89 B&B on laterooms even though we were on a deal, unlike a previous reviewer, we found all the staff very frendly and helpful. We stayed in room 10, a Grasmere room the room was smaller than it appeared on the website, but beautifully decorated, wouldn't have been happy... More

We stayed here on a dinner, bed and breakfast deal through Travelzoo, and for the price we paid, it was excellent value. The room, food and service were fantastic. We also took advantage of the spa, which was lovely. What we thought was particularly good for this type of hotel was the attitude of the staff: they were polite and... More
