Spent a Saturday night here. As other reviewers have said, it can be and was noisy because it is opposite a late night bar/disco. It appears that most of the rooms are at the front so you can't avoid it. That said, with judicious application of earplugs I slept well in the comfortable and fairly spacious room (36). The staff...

Parking in Central Car Park, behind the hotel, makes access very good and you can get a permit from the reception desk (don't lose it, though, or you will get a hefty bill!) The hotel is right in the middle of the town, so easy for shopping. Our room faced the alley at the side of the hotel so was... More

We have just returned from a 2 night stay at this hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful and we thought the food was excellent. We upgraded to a Summit Room which although was lovely, was incredibly noisy. We should have realised there might be a problem when we saw Earplugs in the room! Keswick seems to have become the...

Stayed here with work as a group. Stayed in room 36which was a good sized room and adequate for what I needed. Staff great , food okay but breakfast better than evening meal. Also it is noisy outside so they provide ear plugs which was quaint! Didn't pay so can't comment on cost. Was well looked after and would return... More

Just back from a 2 night stay in a summit room booked through Secret Escapes. Room 37 was lovely, spacious and spotlessly clean. The bathroom was very large with a deep roll top bath and separate shower. The hotel's location was wonderful: once we had parked up and used the free parking permit we didn't need the car again.

Bought a 2 night stay from Secret Escapes and ended up staying an extra night. The room was compact though the bathroom was huge; both recently refurbished to a high standard. We stayed in Room 21 (which strangely is the fire escape route) with a wonderful view over Cat Bells. The food was good quality and the Secret Escapes menu... More
