Fabulous upgrade to a newly decorated suite, thanks! Beautiful space and going to try and book to go again with my husband. Didn’t get time to use the facilities this time but there’s a charge to use unless you book direct. The allocation for the evening meal on the HB package is £35. You can pay extra if you so wish. We happened to be seated next to the grill area so got chatting with the cook there. I had the most amazing steak - perfectly seasoned with a sauce. He also advised on the type/size of steak options. Based on what we saw my friend had a burger. It was lush and my steak was certainly the nicest in a long time. Chips came with a herb on which detracted from the flavour and we both left a lot. Ordinary fries or plain chips would have been better. Great breakfast next day and decent sized beakers to get a drink from of machine. Lush hot choc! Two guys were on their phones at different tables discussing work matters close to me which detracts from a relaxing brekky. I was almost going to move as it went on maybe ten mins. Hospitality nationally needs to consider signs asking people to consider the impact of such calls on other diners. Selfish! The chap two tables up said he didn’t want something going in the press but he talked about it. Despite this, it’s my third stay at this hotel and can recommend. Easy for M6 proximity and half way stage for my friend and I to meet. We usually book a separate room too so we can sleep well which I did with hotels. Com.

Fantastic hotel. Room really spacious with very comfortable bed.

Helpful, friendly staff and excellent amenities and food.

Hotel was nice enough but could not believe they wanted to charge us £15 each to use swimming pool because we booked through yourselves

This hotel was ideal for my 2 night stay in Penrith. The room was clean and comfortable with tea/coffee facilities and robes/slippers available for the pool and/or spa. Pool and gym opening hours were good and the gym is well equipped. Staff in all areas were helpful and friendly. The restaurant menu offered a varied selection and I ate there on both evenings. The atmosphere overall was relaxing. It was an ideal place to stay for my first visit to Penrith and I'd be happy to stay again.

Room was disappointing. Damaged bunkbed, TV and ripped wallpaper.

The staff were very friendly but the family room was not suitable for a 1 year old

Nice faculties comfortable beds friendly staff. Spa often very busy

One-night stop in extended trip. Very convenient location (just off the M6). Minor confusion - hotel uses US floor numbering (ground floor is 0, not "Ground"). Had room service which was a bit expensive for what it was, but food OK. Breakfast good with plenty selection.

Facilities in room were great

Great clean room, great food and great staff. Easy to park and accessible

Absolutely wonderful, especially Sam customer experience manager! Felt very special. All the staff are friendly courteous and helpful, Thank you for a wonderful stay, see you soon

Room was great, very spacious and spotlessly clean. And the pillows (heavenly)

Great hotel rooms food and staff BUT extensive and noisy building work until 5/6 pm. No advance notice of disruption or inconvenience but boards saying ‘please bear with US’ while refurbishment going on.

Lovely hotel and staff, pool very nice. Room disappointing. Building works going on throughout the hotel which wasn’t made clear at booking. We were in a ‘family room’ which was essentially a meeting room converted on the ground floor. The only radiator in such a large room was around half a meter from my head when in bed, the chosen location very uncomfortable and I therefore did not sleep well at all. Shower tray flooded easily which was annoying. Ok but the experience was certainly not worth what we paid.

Hotel was lovely, a warm welcome on arrival. Beds were comfy and shower was great. We loved the gym and spa area. It would have been nice for the hotel to let us know prior to arrival there would be renovations during our stay, we had no communication about this happening. We were woken up with the builders starting work at 8am midweek which wasn’t nice. The room we had had a few marks on the walls and water didn’t drain away quickly in the bathroom, a few little niggles. But overall we enjoyed our stay and would return once hotel has finished renovations.

Our first time at lakes and what a lovely hotel and great staff what work there , I Cannot remember the name of the therapist from the spa who gave me a facial & massage she was the tonic I needed thank you.we couldn’t fault the hotel from start to finish thank you all , and the chef on barbecue how impressive

staff very helpful, especially a member of staff in the restaurant. facilities were good, even during some renovations.

This is my second stay here and it's not my last. This hotel looks unremarkable from the outside but it is beautiful on the inside. Open fires, stunning wood beam ceilings, a fantastic pool and the rooms are spotless. There are spa treatments available but we didn't make use of them this time. The treatments are a bit pricey but i think if you buy a spa package when you're booking your room it works out cheaper, so have a look. The staff in the hotel are all lovely and very friendly. I can't sing the praises of this hotel enough.

Great room and great facilities
