Great location, nice spaces outside. Room and decor very shabby. Smelled. I needed anti histamine as made allergies play up. We avoided sitting on fabric of furniture as did not look clean. Bathroom was spotless. Breakfast had good choices from menu( which was included in price of room) . Main issue hotel did not have a 5 star feel and was certainly not fabulous as rating on hotel. Com indicated

Property in excellent location, very central. Obviously very grand property once, but needs an update. Classic bedroom very old fashioned, no fridge, no safe, no a/c or fan, so had to keep window open to air. Asked for bucket of ice to room and was told there was a standard delivery charge of £5! Asked to pay whole accomodation cost on arrival not just credit card defails ..... never heard of this worldwide! Female receptionist needs to be friendlier.

Beautiful area great for walking . Nice little village with nice shops for sports and arts . Hotel was nice, but the first night they put us in a room next to the very noisy elevator. It really ruined the nightly rest . Employees were very friendly and helpful and made it up by upgrading us to a much nicer room , where we were welcomed by a glass of Prosecco .

Wordsworth Hotel is lovely. Very conveniently located in the centre of Grasmere. Our room was very well presented. The bar-man was very professional and friendly and made us some great cocktails. We were a bit disappointed to find that the Signature restaurant now seems to be merged with the bistro. Nothing against bistros but we had made an effort to get dressed up for the more formal restaurant only to find that people sat near us were wearing shorts and trainers as a result of the new set up. On the whole, a great hotel, however.

A lovely hotel in a lovely setting. Checking in and out was a little frantic due to other guests milling about and making demands. One real issue for us was young people misusing the pool and spa facilities. We were looking forward to chilling out after a long couple of days and our experiences was marred by feral youths bombing, splashing, screaming, etc. and running around the facilities. There was no attendance or supervision and a complaint to reception staff generated zero comment or response. It really spoiled our stay

"Expensive disappointmentt"

4.0

Room allocated was very hot, the radiator was stuck on full heat even though it was 28deg outside, and could not be turned off. The shower/bath had sides so high that a shorter elderly person could not possibly get in without some form of steps. An upgrade room was offered for some of our stay which was acceptable. On our last night we were returned to a standard room, really small and very hot. A security light was mounted right outside the window lighting up the room like daylight which meant that the blind and curtains had to be shut tight to keep the light out, which also cut off any cool air. A very expensive disappointment, but at least the staff were friendly.
