A truly great choice of accommodation in Keswick. Perched at the top of the High Street the George is ideal for a stroll in the town, or as a base for visiting the wider Lake District. The rooms were large and very pleasant, but the place comes in to it's own in the food and drink department. A great bar... More

Eat in late February on a Thursday night when it was pretty quiet. Didn't get very far into a fishcake starter before nearly breaking my teeth on a piece of what appeared to be a plastic pen! when returned to the bar to protest, staff didnt seem unduly surprised or concerned. I asked for and got a refund on the... More

Having eaten at the George many times I was very disappointed when we went last week. The menu had been reduced drastically and the general standard of meal had also dropped. One of the things I particulary enjoy is the Cow Pie - cubes of beef in pastry with a beautiful sauce. The suace was great, the beef was still... More

We did not stay at George hotel, we had our lunch here. They have fantastic food at great price. We tried their burgers and steaks and both items were delicious. They have a good gluten free menu. .. .. .. ..

Room very clean and tidy, breakfast superb..only slight issue is parking can be a slight walk away from pub/hotel but nothing major and is covered by pass supplied by landlord. All staff very friendly and helpful. Ideal base in Keswick for all pubs, restuarants etc. Love this part of... More

Everything was set fair for a good stay at the George. They had been very helpful in sorting out a cab to pick me up from the nearest station, and kept my luggage until the room was ready. My room, whilst not large, had everything necessary although you had to plug the kettle in on the dressing table, as the... More

This is the fourth time we have stayed at The George Hotel, we take advantage of their excellent weekend breaks with 3 nights for the price of 2. They sometimes also have a deal on their restaurant menu too. I challenge you to consume a whole Cow Pie off their menu - I have to confess I gave up just... More

I've been using the bar in the George Hotel since about 1963 and having moved to Keswick 20 years ago have been using it on a more regular basis. It has been a hotel and public bar since the time of the English Civil War. The George is a lovely old coaching inn, with oak beams, sited right in the... More

Our second visit to this pub/hotel. This time stayed with relatives for 2 nights over the new year period. The rooms (we had number 7) are large clean and comfortable, although our relatives had room 8 which was very narrow. The food in the restaraunt is excellent and great value (if you can eat a full portion of cow pie... More
