The end of our love of The George hotel.

We met at the George 17years ago and have since stayed often with our family. It was a very vibrant family hotel and great meeting place for all who live in the area. Coming and going and a great welcome and good food. Our visit at the end of May, nine of us was alright but a little disappointing. This weekend we were in Edinburgh for the Tattoo and Penrith is halfway from there to home in Lancashire so we stopped for a lunch of sandwiches and tea all four of us. However, the car park was almost empty. Very unusual! We walked into the lounge which was almost empty apart from staff to be told that we could only have a full Sunday lunch nothing else. What a welcome!!! We paid for the few minutes of car parking and left! We will NOT be visiting again. How sad, the new management have got it so very wrong and how sad when loyal visitors are turned away. With great sadness our love affair with The George Hotel is over.

Everything on this visit.

Would stay again, but not in room 47.

Excellent breakfast. Friendly staff. Gracious building.

Better pillows. Grouting down corners of bathroom is worst I have EVER seen. Obviously done by a child, sorry!!

A very nice location with a nice feel but despite a recent refurb felt very tired.

Location was excellent as was the overall apearence.

The doors did not fit the frames and light was constantly shining through the gaps. The wardrobe had a light inside which seemed to have a mind of it's own, lighting up when it felt like it and shing into the room.

I'll be back.

The lovely hot water, I must have been near the water tank. Brilliant location for buses and trains. Really enjoyed being able to have friends join me for a catch up.

A little chilly, not the usual toasty place I've been before. Also a little sad that the bed wasn't made whilst there and the teas not topped off.

Nice hotel, friendly staff spoiled by the restaurant.

traditional decor

The restaurant was poor. The menu limited and some of the food not as advertised. Of the selection of ‘local’ cheeses one was Stilton the other two were the same and could not be identified with any certainty. The ‘artisan’ crackers turned out to be Jacobs Cream Crackers. Wanting a light breakfast I ordered smoked haddock and a poached egg but without Hollandaise Sauce . The resulting offering was meagre - so meagre it was funny. I have photographic evidence which I have shared with family for amusement.

Very good

The attitude of the staff, and the general helpfulness of everyone connected with the hotel.

No lift - we are both 89, and the stairs got a little difficult. The bath in our room (24) was crazy. it took up far too much room in the bathroom, and was difficult for us to get in and out. Why not rip it out and install a shower?

Very, very disappointing, after we were both looking forward to our overnight stay.

Given a standard room initially when we had booked a deluxe room, we complained and were given the correct room. The bed was so hard we decided around 8.30pm to leave and go home. A waste of £131. Hotel was far too hot, it was like a sauna. No lift I use a walking stick, we had two flights of stairs to climb, my wife suffers from asthma.
