This is a lovely Hotel in a good location. Rooms are big and we had one with a river view. I shared with my sister and we had a double bed each. It is a short 5 minute walk to the centre of Kendal. Breakfast was good and served until 9.30 but if you get there after 9.15 they run out of things. They had no croissants left on a couple of days and no scrambled eggs were left. The staff on reception were lovely and very helpful. The hotel bar was very disappointing inside. There was a nice balcony outside which we sat on, but got back late at night on one occasion and the barman was very unwelcoming. It was supposed to be open until 11 but he told us grumpily, that if it is quiet they shut early.

Riverside hotel looked ok to start and parts were nice. Room a good size but for the £100 supplement it should be. When l spent time in room these few moths started to appear which was not nice , so reported to reception staff was told they would look into it.No change moths still appearing.Reported again l was told they were waiting for a delivery to try on the room spray or treatment etc. Asked if l could see another room , they showed me a room on the other side of hotel on the road side, and checked outside it was above a engine/ extractor fan room.So did not except as the room l had was on the Riverside with lovely views, seemed quiet at night. The room had marks on wall and paint chips off wooden window ledges. But the worse for me was the annoying moths. Delayed reviewing to see what their response was that l reported to the coach company that l went with. No response so far at nearly end of August. Would not recommend this hotel for the reasons in review.

Staff are lovely, cheerful, etc. But it’s shabby and rundown. Corridors cluttered with random seating. Room was pretty dirty and had cobwebs and stained carpet and bedding. Breakfast bit tired too. After a warm welcome at the desk, the rest was a disappointment.

Hotel definitely needs a makeover The rooms are dated, dull and miserable Bar service hit + miss, the outside terrace needs a good clean, dirty tables + glass needs some cleaning, ashtrays + empty glasses left on tables for hours Don't eat in the restaurant, poor quality frozen food with expensive prices Lasagne, 2 slices of pasta with some sauce in the smallest dish ever, came cold in the middle, sent back, settled for a refund Said chef was informed, I don't think a professional chef would have ever made that food Pool area, miserable 😫 Freezing cold + members telling you what you can or can't do Needs more seating, a few cheap plastic chairs very uninspiring Cleaners need training, a quick wipe round in rooms with a dirty cloth not acceptable Definitely wouldn't return
