Ambleside Salutation Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful staff. Nothing was too much trouble!"

The Temperance Inn, Ambleside. The Inn Collection Group

10/10 Excellent

"2nd time stayed here and had the same lovely room. Stayed in dog friendly room no. 1 with lovely huge bay window overlooking Loughrigg. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Looked after our dog with lovely sausages. Great location for hiking and bars/shops/restaurants and very good price. Great atmosphere in the bar area and lovely breakfast. Payable car park not far from accommodation."

Waterhead Rooms & Suites

6/10 Okay

"The room we stayed in over last weekend (hot weather weekend) we could not have the windows open because it had a wasp nest directly above the window in the guttering, I enformed them they told me what they had done and they were going to they kept me informed of every step which was fine With the weather being so hot it the room was a little unbearable at times during the night I know wasps do not come out at night, but they do early morning"

Wateredge Inn- The Inn Collection group

6/10 Okay

"Third year staying here and what a different experience. Whether this was due to it being a bank holiday or not some things could have been better. On arrival not the usual warm welcome told we couldn’t book a table for food that night as not taking reservations, went outside and managed to book online!!!! Took 30 minutes queuing to check in and both nights took 25 minutes to queue for a drink and to order food at the bar. Ran out of beers second night and burgers on first night, considering we were told it’s like this all the time during holidays then you would expect enough stock to be ordered. The bar staff and those clearing the area worked really hard, credit to them. The breakfast system needs some thinking as you are constantly asked what room number you are when going up for the buffet and where the toaster is located blocks the way to the tables causing people to bump into one another. No fans in the room so had to open windows which not good being on a busy main road. Will seriously consider whether we would rebook again during the holiday season."
