앰블사이드 센트럴

Just a room with an en-suite . It was clean and tidy . The room was fine and it was very central. Tea and coffee in the room which was nice. I think it was worth the money

Room was pretty big. Washroom was nice. But the light in the room was not bright enough.

It was ok. The weekends are loud. The beds are…. present. They were not great. Parking is across town. Some rooms are on the third floor.

Expect to be kept awake till 2/3am every night, bed was ok but lumpy in parts, I’ve come out with a bad rash on my neck from the pillows, avoid unless completely last resort.

Self check instructions were clear. Room was serviced while we were out. Help via the phone was immediate when we needed it. Room clean and spacious. All very good. Only downside was that car park was a good 5-8 minute walk away… but at least there was parking as opposed to there being none. Needed window open as warm weather but that lead to noise disturbance. Of course that was due to fabulous central location - I realise you can’t have central and quiet! I’d stay again, thank you.

This was a great pad for us to use while walking around the lakes. No aircon meant sweaty nights in a family room, but the room was fine, seperate but private bathroom. Great location.

Place was in a great location. It was clean, but the bed was terrible. This place needs new beds!

Good location. Car parking was a long way from accommodation.

Make sure your phone number is up-to-date on your account as they will try to text/Whatsapp the entry codes to you. I didn’t realise that, so had to call them and pop by the bar next door to get said codes, defeating the point of a self-serve accommodation which is what we wanted. Still, it was a quick fix, but something that seemed avoidable if I knew to check the details Hotels.com hold for me (or if Ambleside Central email you instead? My messages from them, via email, were coming through fine). The car park is about an 8 minute walk away from the accommodation so be prepared for that. The room itself was great for what we needed - clean and comfy. The fan didn’t work and it was too late at night to contact anyone when we realised, so it’d be fab to just check those sort of things regularly (eg the kettles) if possible, so guests can continue to enjoy the self-serve accommodation :-) Excellent location, brilliant value for money, and although a few minor comments above, I’m simply hoping to help future guests and I’m in no way whinging; we would happily stay again!

Do not stay here if you actually want to sleep. Given the location on the main road, I was expecting some traffic noise but I was not aware of the noise that would come from the pub. A live band ended up playing when we were there so we didn’t get any sleep until well after midnight. The single bed was uncomfortable - you could feel the springs in the mattress. The toilet flush was noisy and randomly went off in the middle of the night even if no one was in the bathroom. The room hadn’t had a thorough clean - I found rubbish from the previous guests in the room. The management was unresponsive - I sent a message before our stay questioning the validity of the parking permit provided as it said it was valid for March. We ended up just parking in a nearby street which was disc controlled which was much closer than the parking provided.

👍

Was simple accomadation. Whole building has a weird smell. Our chests were hurting after waking up. Facilities were standard. There was damp on the ceiling of the shower. Parking was a 7 min walk away which was inconvenient when having luggage to carry.

Somewhere inexpensive to stay a couple of nights while visiting the Lake District.

It’s a shame as the room (2) was fine; basic with very small en-suite (needed the tap fixing and the extractor fan before the mould properly sets in, but none issues really!) The actual issue was the noise on a night, it wasn’t that bad on the Friday - there was a live singer which ended at midnight ish. But OMG we thought it would be similar sat night, but after the musician the thumping hard core club music started and went on until 3am. We came away to catch up on sleep and had a lot less than we would with our little ones. Unless you want to join the party avoid!

Lovely building and lovely room. 2 adults 1 child in bedroom 2. Large room with small ensuite shower, toilet and sink. Situated in a lovely street, can be a bit noisy at night with the pub but not enough to annoy us. Will definitely stay again.

Nice room but very noisy both nights

Ideal basic room and shower. Basic hot drinks and kettle supplied.

Terrible experience. Wish i had read reviews before booking. Stayed in room 2 which was over the bar. Noise from people outside went on until 3am. We had booked for two nights but after one to avoid another sleepless night. Room was dark and felt like a haunted house. Strange red mark left in toilet. Won't be returning.

Horrible experience

Whilst the room was pleasant, the hotel itself was a nightmare to find, its literally a doorway on a high street. We didn't receive the said text message with entry codes to entre the building or further instructions how to find it. Parking was off site, 15 minutes walk away, we had to travel back to the car twice to collect our belongings, not ideal.
