      Riverside Kendal”

      Walls in the room were dirty. No ironing board. Lots of chips in the paintwork on the doors / skirting. Breakfast took 25 minutes to come despite only one other person being in. One staff member felt it was part of his role to be sarcastic and derogatory. Bar prices were eye watering Bed was comfy and room nice and warm

      Problems with parking”

      After arriving at 3.30 and booking in we left to meet up with friends and relatives but there were no parking spaces left. A member of staff tried to help. I parked in the street and had to get up early to take a place in the hotel car park.

      pleasant but could be improved”

      The hotel is in a fantastic location within easy walking distance to the centre of town. The pool and spa facilities are an added bonus.

      Enjoyed our weekend break but felt the lounge could do with different lighting to create a more cosy atmosphere as felt and looked just like an oap lounge when we were sitting having a drink.
