The location in ambleside is absolutely ideal. But was disappointed with the room which was dusty. Put the fan on and dust blew everywhere over the bed aswell. The staff were very friendly but on the last morning they were clearly short staffed and there was a 45 minute wait for breakfast. The breakfast both mornings wasn't the best either, Cold hash browns. Hoping this weekend was a one off as we have stayed in the inn collection hotels before and it was a lovely place to stay.

Everything you need for a nights stay

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.

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.

Short stay.

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 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.
