Good for a spa day I guess
Lack of direction. More catered for the spa,I wanted to go outside but was locked, to later find out it was a separate payment?
I would have paid prior

Disappointing
Stay was okay but disappointing. The overall hotel is very nice looking until you get to the rooms at the end of the hotel. The room was very noisy and you could hear the room next door having a normal conversation and any time someone walked near the room you could hear the floors creak. This was not helped by the staff that need to service the rooms had a room opposite ours that was in use a lot. For the price i would not recommend it.

We had a lovely stay here for one evening. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The room was excellent! Our only criticism was the W restaurant which didn't really meet our expectation compared to the rest of the hotel.

Wonderful stay
Came especially for the spa which was excellent, very modern, plenty to do and not too overcrowded.
The new part of the hotel was very modern and complimented the older part. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Our room was on a corner in the old part and was bug and comfortable and even has a partial lake view which was lovely. Plenty of choice for breakfast which was in a lovely big bright room. We will definitely be coming back.

Cumbria Life awards celebration and stay
Everything about our stay at the hotel was wonderful but the food served at the Cumbria Life awards was very poor indeed and this was the only blot on an otherwise exemplary stay.

Amazing setting and great service
Lovely hotel, beautiful setting, with nice staff. The only issue we experienced was the limited hours that hotel guests were allowed to use the leisure facilities and the charges to park at the hotel (£12 per car per day), all of which was made clear at the time of booking, but were still a bit disappointing. Overall recommended hotel.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property, overall it was a very positive experience with attentive, considerate staff and services. It is in a great area to travel to Windermere, Ambleside or really anywhere else in the Lake District. The only slight let down was the spa; you have to pay extra for spa access even after paying for a treatment. Additionally the details around access times & costs varied depending on which staff you spoke to.

Stayed in the Winander Club, room 888 which was excellent. The hotel and grounds are beautiful and well maintained. The staff were very helpful and friendly and we had our own reception area which was quick. Our room as on the top floor with only one other room. We had a really comfortable bed, bath in main room, good. Size bathroom with nice products and complimentary sweets. But by far the best selling point is the room balcony with amazing views of lake Windermere. Nothing better than sitting have a morning tea / coffee looking at the lake and fells in the cool morning air.
Ultimately we can't fault this hotel and our going to look to make it out base to celebrate our wedding anniversary every year.
Our only suggestion would be for there to be outside towels to dry off plastic balcony furniture and perhaps blankets so you can spend more time enjoying the outside room space as there are no heaters.
