Location magnificent and iseal for a lakes holiday. Restaurant bar good. Dinner menu very average. Staff very friendly. Complimentary breakfast poor and cooked items almost cold. Very limited if you are vegetarian.
Parking is a major issue. If you can get a space hang on to it. Would be inadequate even iif exclusive to residents but also at a charge open to non-residents.
Overall impression disappointing but could easily be brilliant.

It’s not a bad place to stay. The only thing is it wasn’t worth £620 for 2 nights. If it was less price, it would be ok

The hotel is in a great location and we had a Windermere room behind hotel across the road. Car parking was a bonus. Breakfast good.
Had lunch there with family who came to us and it was very disappointing which was a shame.

Location is great. Staff are very helpful, breakfast is excellent and lots of choice. We had a superior room at the Windermere Rooms. I expected a better view/facilities for the cost, rooms were very warm but could be easily fixed by turning the radiators down. Floor in the bedroom was slightly uneven which didn’t affect the stay but something I didn’t expect for the price of the room. I would definitely stay again but probably wouldn’t pay for a superior room.

The rooms are clean and comfortable but the staff in the Wateredge Inn, directly opposite where you check in and have breakfast are awful.
The first morning was such a bad experience we did not bother going over for the second morning.

Good stuff:
The housekeeping staff were amazingly helpful and knowledgeable.
Rooms was great.
Not so good stuff:
Menu was a bit disappointing but only because there are 4 other Inn Group Hotels in Ambleside which all had basically the same menu.
The breakfast staff were a little abrupt.

We feel you should warn people staying in room 31 that it is right on the main road and feels like a goldfish bowl when you turn on the lights and that you can’t see the TV from the bed.
That said, the room was spacious, clean, comfortable, warm and all we did was sleep in it . . For the price we paid, including breakfast, it was satisfactory for an overnight stay.

We had a very pleasant two night stay at The Wateredge Inn, which has a truly wonderful lakeside location with great views across the lake to the distant fells. While the hotel has some of the most garrulous staff we have ever encountered anywhere in the world, and the restaurant / bar menu was pretty typical "chain" quality (and pricing), we thought that the hotel was very clean and extremely well maintained with good parking (in The Windermere Rooms). However two things potential travelers should perhaps be aware of: a) the hotel is NOT in Ambleside (it's about a mile away) and Ambleside itself is pretty short of parking - so you have to expect a walk into the center of town; b) the rooms are exceedingly small (and ours was a "superior" room). Really a miracle in ingenuity (getting the smallest bathroom sink in the world (?), and all the other amenities into the bathroom) with barely space to walk around the sides of the bed. But... everything worked, the room was cozy enough and really very neat and tidy and nicely presented and furnished - thank you! Would we go back? Maybe. It's convenient to find (and park) and the location is excellent.... but maybe there are other places to explore in The Lakes?

A cosy, comfy modern hotel with a vintage feel and heritage. Plentiful parking and easily located. The room we had had recently been done up (you could smell the new carpet smell in the main corridor). It was beautifully decorated and very relaxing. The room was spacious and you couldn’t hear any road noise.
Breakfast was available across the road in the main restaurant, it was hot and had plenty of choices.
Definitely had a nice luxurious feel to the hotel room.

We found the room very satisfactory and enjoyed our stay. The only (minor) disappointment was the quality of the food in the evenings which seemed to be 'frozen heated up' which was tolerable bur slightly disappointing. Breakfasts by contrast were very satisfactory.
