Top Windermere Hotel Reviews

Macdonald Old England Hotel & Spa

"The location of the hotel is excellent with stunning views. Hotel needs a little bit of work here and there. Cleanliness is acceptable. Staff friendly."

Windermere Hillthwaite Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great 2 night stay. Lovely clean rooms nice tasteful decor and very attentive staff. Will definitely be retuning"

Windermere Manor Hotel

8/10 Good

"A Grand Old Lady in beautiful grounds. Scrupulously clean. Staff were kind considerate and very helpful. Our accessible room in the cottages was a 2 minute walk from the main hotel up a long and very steep incline, but you can drive to the front of the hotel if you have limited mobility. There is a reserved parking space right outside the cottages which is very useful. Room was very spacious with easy access up a ramp into the cottage for a permanent wheelchair user. Good accessible wetroom with a roll under sink and a shower chair - just to note for para/tetra guests this is not usable if you cannot easily transfer or have no mobility as the arms are not removable. There is a small kitchenette that includes a microwave and fridge plus a kettle and coffee machine. Coffee pods, teabags and milks were plentiful. Pool is great and was lovely and clean, but here is no hoist for disabled guests. Breakfast was a hot and cold buffet. There is no room service but the staff are very happy to help you with a takeaway breakfast. This is delightful to eat on the cottage patio. The restaurant was a little disappointing, we expected something a bit more upmarket for the style of the hotel. No table service, you have to order all food and drinks from the bar and the menu is limited basic fayre. Though the menu changes daily. Not enough selection for drinks at the bar. Only nonalcoholic choices were 1 lager and 1 stout. They had nonalcoholic wine on the menu, but it wasn't available."

Holly Lodge Guest House

"Check in was simple. As there is no reception, we received a notification of what room we were in and the code to the keybox containing the room keys.
