Overall Ratings & Reviews The Ambleside Inn - The Inn Collection Group

Nice room to base ourselves from for the night before the Fred Whitton. Basic room with everything you need, only complaint would be that the room we had was facing the street and the Saturday nightlife was pretty loud till late walking past the front of our room that kept waking us up, appreciate this is outside of the hotels control though so not their fault but this is just a work of warning if you are after an early. Ight for an early start.

Lovely hotel, although sometimes waiting time to be served was a little frustrating - standing at the bar at breakfast with nobody else there and one member of staff at the other end of the bar on their phone isn’t a good look.

Dining options, Cleanliness and lively staff

Very pleasant stay. Very dog friendly. Staff very helpful. Food excellent. This hotel is in the centre of Ambleside. Only small negative is the charge for dogs of £15 per dog per night.

Stayed for 3 nights with our dog. Food at the pub was nice and we were able to book a table for each night we stayed at the pub for the food. Room was a decent size for what we needed as most the time was spent outside. The room has a bowl for water for the dog, and a towel for them. Tray for boots next to door to put them to stop mud in the room as well. Room cleaned each day and service was great.

The small uniqueness and ambience was perfect The only downside is the parking is not on site but public parking is not too far away.

I liked the location, which was excellent, right in the centre of Ambleside. There are plenty of shops, especially hillwalking type shops nearby. It is possible to walk to the lake, but for me it was a long walk. There are plenty of buses to go to the lake, to Windermere, or Bowness-on -Windermere. The hotel has a dog-friendly bar, serving nice meals, with nice friendly staff.

Great location, clean, tidy and lovely staff

As much as this was excellent … we did have a panic when we arrived and our room had been allocated to another family! The first member of staff was bewildered and even when showing our confirmation could not find us and seems not to believe us then the colleague found the problem and resolved it.

Nice place and nice stuff

Nice breakfast but parking was half a mile walk and £21

Perfect location

The hotel is in a very central location in the middle of Ambleside however there is no on site parking available. My room was clean and comfortable. I found it difficult to sleep though as the room was really warm and there was a lot of traffic noise early in the morning. Breakfast was very tasty with a good choice and the staff were friendly.

Great location and very clean

Very good but for £209 a night you need parking!! Had to carry cases to and from car park didn't want to loose space!!

Wonderful pub atmosphere. Great staff.

Nice hotel, ideally situated in the heart of Ambleside, nice clean rooms at a good price for the area.

Great stay with friendly staff and comfy rooms. Unfortunately, no parking provided. However, there is spaces outside the hotel which are free to park in out of hours.

Couple of days break in Ambleside. Very relaxing. Ambleside Inn was a great central base to stay. We would recommend and we would stay there again.

I had a wonderful night’s sleep at the Ambleside Inn. Bed very comfortable, facilities in the room all I could have needed. The staff are helpful and friendly. Parking is a 5 minute walk away so if you have lots of luggage, worth dropping it at the Inn before parking at the Rydal car park (£8.80/night).
