The Derwentwater Hotel

We stayed 2 nights at the Derwentwater Hotel. It’s a bit of a quaint traditional English hotel. They seem to have a new and more modern wing and the original bits as we had 2 rooms and one looked a lot newer than the other. We would highly recommend getting the package with dinner as you get a 3-course dinner, which is great value and not to mention delicious. Breakfast is a full buffet spread which was great too! Sheets were clean and good water pressure for the shower. There’s also a nice little bar, and some board/card games in the conservatory. Parking at the back of the hotel is £5 per night though.

I liked the location and the garden. The rooms are in need of updating and they were not cleaned during our stay. The television worked on the first day only. The toilet flush needed attention.

Overall i was a bit disappointed with the stay. The room had not been vacuum cleaned. The bathroom was very dated and is in much need of modernising. The shower kept loosing pressure. The staff were lovely and happy to help. Breakfast was very nice

Lovely friendly and welcoming staff. Value for money.

Disappointing. Unfortunately this hotel really does need a lot of work to be anywhere near as nice as other places we’ve stayed in Keswick. The saving grace of this hotel is the staff members as they were all polite and friendly. Cleanliness is a big issue, black mould next to the wardrobe, crumbs in the drawers, plates and glasses in the corridors. We booked this hotel from a point of it being a good location, walking distance to Keswick but other than that there really isn’t any other reason to stay here. It needs a lot of work, the sink in the bathroom had a huge crack in it, the bath panel had holes in it. We’re just lucky we were only staying for one night. The curtains weren’t long enough to cover the windows. We did all see the humour in it as we were on a trip with our friends but if you’re looking for something comfortable and relaxing I wouldn’t recommend it.

Thanks very much to the staff for accommodating my late arrival after midnight. Nice hotel, comfortable bed, good location, great staff.

Lovely spot near Keswick the grounds and garden are beautiful. Staff friendly and helpful
