I checked in to a smokey room, we were offered another but the smell of polish and masking air fresheners was just too much. Not a place I would recommended if you've come to the lakes for the fresh air. On a plus side the receptionist was trying to be helpful More

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. I am sorry you chose not to stay here at The Clifton Hill Hotel. I have written to you personally with my response to your complaint and must point out that although we found no evidence of smoke in your initially allocated room you were offered an alternative which you...

On approach it is evident that this hotel is in need of some TLC but don't be put off, exceptional welcome from staff, very good food, clean beds and plenty of hot water. On return from exploring hill and vale what better than to find that you have a mug along side the tea/coffee making facilities in room? We wanted... More

We stayed in this hotel for one night as we were going to the Lowther show. We had a very warm welcome on arrival. Our room was comfortable and clean, overlooking the well kept hotel garden. with a view of the mountains in the distance. The breakfast was very good. The staff are very friendly and professional.

Firstly the fire doors on the corridoors were left open all night..no tell a lie, one was kept shut to prevent smoke and flames, but that door had a 2 inch gap under it. Bedroom dated, blankets...

I travel a lot on business, but on a recent trip to The Lakes, my usual hotel was full, so I tried the Clifton Hill. From the smile and greeting that met me as I opened the front door, through dinner, the bar and breakfast, this was by far the friendliest hotel I have ever stayed in. Another unexpected plus...

I stayed with my girlfriend on my way up to Edinburgh. The hotel is perfect for such an enjoyable trip or for visiting the Lakes. The staff made you feel very welcome and there was a great atmosphere in the bar. I had a lovely meal and a good night's sleep. Followed by a first class breakfast before heading north.... More
