“Excellent hotel”

We stayed here mainly for the walking. In spite of awful weather, we had a really enjoyable break. The meals here were excellent, a little pricey though. Our bedrooms were spaceish and my bed was so comfortable.. There were two really comfortable lounges where you could curl up with a book. We would all stay here again.

“Dog friendly hotel”

Great service from the friendly staff, in a hotel in a great location.

“warm welcome”

difficult to control room temperature-far too hot. otherwise a splendid comfortable coaching inn type hotel extending a warm welcome with good food and beer.

“Impressed”

Great hotel, good location - get a room in the back as its on a main road, and great staff - very friendly. Very good breakfast and snacks. Dinner menu needs work - had veggie option which was very tasty but not well presented.

“Nice hotel”

Hotel was lovely, but the bedrooms are ready for a re vamp although they are clean they are tired and worn.

“Great service but rooms tired”

It's a tough one with The Swan. The downstairs is lovely and just what you want in the lakes. Very cosy and open fires burning and cosy chairs to sit and have a drink. The service was wonderful and everyone is very welcoming. The worry was when we went through the dated and tired looking corridors and then going into your room. Yes it's all very clean but looks like it's in serious need of some TLC and updating. I think because it's a chain hotel you expect better and the poor room would probably be the only reason we wouldn't go again. The phone didn't work, no fridge or mini bar and the bathroom was tiny too. It's a 5-10 min walk into the centre of Grasmere but that's no problem.
