The staff were Brilliant. We were given what could be described as a standard room when we arrived. When we showed reception picture of room which was booked they changed room to room on picture immediately. It was mentioned that it should not have been advertised as a superior room. Hotel was perfect for a warm , quiet welcome after a day walking. Staff were fantastic.

This is a 2 star hotel, not 3 star as advertised.
This hotel is advertised as a 3 star hotel but when you arrive to check in you realise it is a 2 star hotel. I have filed a complaint to hotels.com about misleading trading practices. This hotel is indeed a 2 star. Room is outdated, the bathroom was dirty and there was a smell of urine. The walls are paper thin and there were only 2 sockets available for us. The breakfasts buffet was ok for a 2star hotel, the personnel was friendly and this together with the good location are the only positive things I can say about my stay. I got charged for a 3 star hotel, not worth it.

Lovely area and perfect position for the Coast to Coast Walk. Staff were lovely and helpful. The only negative side to the stay was the evening meal which was very mediocre and certainly not worth £30!

A charming Lake District hotel with good food and excellent service, with free parking. The bedrooms were on the small side and so was the bathroom. The wifi was poor in the bedroom.

Patterdale Hotel - what could be!
The location is great, amazing in fact. This hotel really could be something else and right up there with the best of them. However, The building is aging and in need of investment The staff are, by and large friendly but there are some members which have clearly lost their passion for the industry - slap dash service and dirty trainers. The food could be improved drastically - this is a restaurant not a fast food outlet. We have been twice now and both times we have had a three course meal in less than 25 minutes - cooked on mass with little love. This really could be elevated to the next level very quickly but unfortunately at the minute is more faulty towers than fine dining. Whilst I appreciate the value at £23 for the food, that is no excuse for the service level. Please do not think this review is spiteful in anyway, it really is meant with the best intention and to be constructive as this hotel really should be amazing. It is not all bad, the location, the garden area out front, the price point, and the beer - serves a right good pint of larger. The young lady on reception even remembered our previous trip (last year) which was nice. Just nip a few behaviours in the butt, up the appearance of one or two and really consider the restaurant - you have a right gem on your hands if considered correctly. Think about this, we left one night early simply because we couldn't face another round from the restaurant for our evening meal - we travelled 2.5hours home instead.
