Penrith Hotels with Bars

Stayed here several times, even a couple of times when they had only just re opened following each of the Covid lockdowns and always enjoyed, had a fab welcome and the rooms are clean. Not saying its perfect for everyone as some of you will not be a fan of the gold and red decor in the rooms , reception and corridors. But its not shabby its just old fashioned. The bathrooms are moden and the bar and restaurant have had a face lift with a not ultra moden colour scheme of cream and blue but it suits the building style. Dont expect spa, gym or pool and dont expect room service or cocktails. But you will always get a warm and friendly welcome and service. The setting is off the beat and track , but worth finding this gem, at the side of the woods , with stream running over waterfall and rock oh and keep your eyes peeled for red squirrels. Food is good at breakfast though no veggie sausages which some did complain about, food is good value in the evening though a limited choice of 4 starters 4 mains and 4 puds including a veggie option. Yorkshire portions for the main and loads of veg. Bar prices higher than pub prices but not that bad for a hotel.

4 couples, 4 big anniversaries, 140 years of marriage between us. I contacted Roundthorn as some friends had stayed there and gave it good reviews. I had quite a bit of contact with the hotel before our stay. Without exception everyone I spoke to were very helpful. All the staff during our stay were very efficient and friendly. Breakfast was very good, a good selection of dishes cooked to order and a small buffet section as well. We ate both nights in the restaurant and the food was good. I chose very well, some others maybe felt they could have chosen better but there were no complaints. The hotel very kindly put us in our own dining room on one night so that we could celebrate without worrying about other guests, not that we were particularly crazy! 1 couple stayed in the self catering accommodation and enjoyed that. The rest of us stayed in our hotel. We all had rooms at the front which enjoy fabulous views. Note: only 1 of these bedrooms has a bath so if that's important definitely check. Our bathroom had a lovely big walk in shower and 2 wash basins. The room and bed was very comfortable and we slept well, which isn't always the case when we go away. The hotel is well placed to get into Penrith without being in the town. It's a 20 minute ish journey to Ullswater. All in all it was a brilliant stay and we all enjoyed it. I hope we have the chance to return at some point.

Six blokes from Manchester stayed for 1 night on Saturday 23rd June 2018. We climbed Helvelyn and then hiked down Striding Edge into Glenridding. We parked our cars in a car park near Thirlmere water not realising this was the wrong side to tackle Striding Edge the safer way on aswel. It was only when we arrived in Glenridding that we discovered it was a 3.5 hour walk back to the cars on the roads or a 40 minute taxi drive back to Swirls car park. We had already been on the mountains for 6 hours. We spoke to the local farmer who gave us MIKE the local taxi drivers details. He charged the 6 of us £45 to get back to the cars and we then drove back to Glenridding in our own cars. When driving to the hostel we were surprised how far back into the mountain of Helvelyn it was! The idea of walking back and to from the hostel to the pubs was a bit off putting after a major hike, so we paid Mikes the taxi drivers sister in law £10 to pick us up and drop us off in the village. The drive is about 6 minutes and I would guess 35 mins walk. On arriving in the hostel the computers were down and we couldn't have access to our 2 rooms. I didn't understand the full issues as they had our booking sheets and only have so many rooms. They had to keep calling head office . Anyway after 30 mins or so it was sorted. The rooms are basic but clean. The bunk beds are really comfy ,but the rooms are really hot to sleep in even with the windows open and a cold stream outside.

A very comfortable historic and traditional hotel that ticked all the boxes for our lovely stay in the centre of Penrith. Our room was fine, bed comfy, shower great. Big tick for Elemis shower gel and shampoo dispensers! WiFi worked better in the (large) lounge. There is a car park behind the hotel but short-stay spaces in front of the hotel for unloading. They give you a disk for the one-hour parking and a map to navigate the one way system to end up in the car park right behind. Food was fine and there are also some nice restaurants locally- we liked Gianni and Four and Twenty.

Spa was like Saturday afternoon at a local swimming baths, zero relaxation. The hotel staff were robotic and seemed to be more interested in their mobile phone rather than serve customers. The only high was the restaurant FYR which was very good in both service and food quality. Would not recommend the hotel and definitely not the SPA! Ironically that’s what the hotel is advertised for. So do yourself a favour and steer clear unless you want a lovely evening meal.

Love the location, the views from the hotel & dining room. The restaurant was good, young inexperienced staff that very very nice but a little clumsy. Checkin receptionist was very curt, but check out person the following day was lovely. All in all, loved staying here again. Beautifully peaceful

Just had a delicious Sunday lunch here. Staff brilliant,food exceptional. Roast beef, Yorkshire pudding, roast and mashed potatoes. Not just the usual peas and carrots but a medley of roast veg ,red cabbage and mangetout and cabbage in a creamy sauce. Plenty of gravy too. If booking request that you are not at the table opposite the door. Each time door oppend blast of cold air hits you and your food. A bit noisy but otherwise a good lunch out. Great value for money.

What an unexpected find! A really lovely hotel in the centre of Penrith. We had a warm welcome and our room card with a copy of our receipt. Very efficient! The room was large and very clean and the bathroom was brilliant. Tea and coffee facilities. We booked a table for a meal in the evening and it was well cooked and very tasty. The breakfast in the morning was also delicious - would recommend the smoked salmon and scrambled egg. Loads of salmon! The waitress was lovely! The best part of it was the price. Unbelievable good value for money. Would thoroughly recommend.
