Top Lake Windermere Hotel Reviews

Lakes Hotel and Spa

8/10 Good

"Room was clean, towels were not changed daily and tea/coffee facilities were not replenished every day, luckily I had taken my own. Staff very friendly, breakfast was good with lots to choose from. Pool area was good main pool was bright but a bit dark and dangerous in areas, the hot tub was not very clean or clear you could not see the steps to get in, needs lighting to see where you are going, health a safety hazard. Nice to have a bar on the poolside, and it stayed open till late. Lots of people in the on-site pub in bathrobes eating and drinking as you had to go through pub to get to the pool. Good in the pub had a good variety to choose from reasonable priced. All in all it was a nice hotel and a pleasant stay, but the pool area definitely needs to a bit brighter to see where you are going."

Holly Lodge Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Really quirky decor. Fantastic staff made the stay relaxing. Free parking is a bonus in Windermere. The guest lounge which allows you to take your own drinks in was utilised. Free access to a nearby by gym and spa is also included, although we didnt use these. Overall a fantatic stay.Will return Breakfast was lovely good quality and tasty"

The Angel Inn - The Inn Collection Group

10/10 Excellent

"A well located inn for visiting central Bowness-on-Windermere. Plenty of parking options around."

Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa

8/10 Good

"We had room 310 it where there are some sort of blowers air con also a fire door is left open and the staff use it come come in and out but the hotel is a great place to stop apart from this"

Macdonald Old England Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Hotel and location lovely. We were just slightly disappointed in the spa, after a long day walking we were looking forward to relaxing in the spa with a jacuzzi/ hot tub but there was only a pool."

Windermere Hillthwaite Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I had great experience the hotel was nice and clean. The views were amazing and the staff were helpful and accomodating overall lovely experience for weekend break away. Many thanks, highly recommended"

The Hideaway at Windermere

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyed a great 3 night stay at the Hideaway. This is a true Bed & Breakfast. Our bed was comfortable and our private bath had been nicely modernized with helpful shelves and racks. The breakfasts were prepared to order from a balanced menu. The staff was friendly and very accommodating. Due to the rain we did not get to enjoy the outside sitting area but it looked inviting. The bedroom itself was a bit tight, but we had small roller bags so we were able to situate everything - would have been more challenging if we had larger suitcases. The location was a 5 - 10 minute walk from the train / bus station and a short walk to shops and restaurants. We would recommend the Hideaway."

St John's Lodge (incl off-site health club)

10/10 Excellent

"Good location. Short walking distance to both towns nearby. The staff were very attentive. Large choice for breakfast"

Jerichos Boutique Accommodation

10/10 Excellent

"Solo traveler, had a lovely stay! Location great, close to the station and bus stop. Amazing breakfast included and great room. Would definitely stay here again if I was in Windermere"
