The Wordsworth Hotel

My husband and I loved The Wordsworth Hotel. It is obviously an older property, but for us it had been updated where it counts. The bathroom was lovely. The staff treated us so very well, and we loved the bartenders!! Especially our friend from Scotland. We would stay there again in a heartbeat. The location was ideal to walk into everywhere in Grasmere and also to get to hiking trails.

The Wordsworth is a lovely old hotel in the centre of the beautiful village of Grasmere. Highly recommended.

Great location and excellent staff

The location and building are beautiful, everything was clean and we used the pool and jacuzzi which were lovely. My parents had a card in their room saying if they forego getting the room cleaned they can have a free drink, which I thought was a great idea. However, I didn't have a card, and when I asked at reception I felt like I was stressing the woman out as she said it was nothing to do with her and was the cleaning staff's responsibility. Eventually the barman gave me a free drink, however. Breakfast was decent, quick service, and a range of options. Our order was slightly wrong but it was still enjoyed. I must say the hotel was very warm. I didn't need the radiator on in my room, and I even had to open the window at times. In February that's crazy haha!

Excellent, room was spacious and clean food was superb

Everything excellent.

Although the weather wasn't so good, excellent hotel to spend a relaxing time within. Large log fire with sofa and armchairs. Restaurant food excellent with friendly service.

Very good hotel, rooms were spotless and comfortable. Spa was good with plenty of chairs also given robes, slippers and towels. Provided. Breakfast was great with lots to choose from and very quick service and pleasant staff. Only negative point was that check-in is not till 4pm and when it came to 4pm we were told it was too soon as rooms may not be ready as a member of staff hadn’t turned in at 8am. Everyone was sitting around waiting to check-in with their luggage. We did eventually get our room key after complaining but having lots of people sitting round in reception and other rooms all waiting to check-in was not a good customer experience. I did enjoy my time there once checked-in but surely a hotel of this calibre should have rooms ready at 4pm or at least offer a complimentary drink if the rooms not available.

Enjoyed our stay at the Wordsworth, stayed B&B & diner, food was very good with a good choice, good size bedroom for all the wet clothing. Lots of walks from the door. Friendly staff. Only gripe would be, limited selection of draft beers, Boddingtons only.

Very comfortable and quiet room. All the staff were excellent as always. A very easy place to live in a lovely setting
