Lovely, welcoming hotel. Very approachable receptionist. All staff were very friendly and accomodating. Will definitely recommend and will return. Great walks and scenery on doorstep! Beautiful pub called the white lion Inn 2 min walk away, with very friendly atmosphere. We had delicious hot breakfast at Patterdale Hotel!

We loved the location of the hotel which is very close to some excellent walks around Ullswater. The decor of the rooms is a bit dated but they were clean. The breakfast was good, but the staff were very quick to remove your plates. The reason I did not give this five stars was because the noise at night, as it was next to the main road and the dated decor. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay at a very reasonable cost.

I had an enjoyable stay at the 'Patterdale Hotel' as it allowed me to get warm and dry when the conditions outside were atrocious, so bad we all lost TV reception but this was no fault of the hotel. The staff were pleasant and helpful throughout. The hotel was completely full over the weekend and parking was difficult, I used the one across the road without issues. In general the décor and furnishings are dated but still functional, don't expect a Premier Inn. The entertainment in the bar on Saturday night seemed to drive everyone away so I suspect that it may soon change. I only ate breakfast at the hotel (perfectly adequate if again a bit dated) so can't comment on the rest of the menu. Note that no dogs are allowed inside at all, an unusual policy for this location.

Lovely area and perfect position for the Coast to Coast Walk. Staff were lovely and helpful. The only negative side to the stay was the evening meal which was very mediocre and certainly not worth £30!

Decent, No-nonsense Hotel

Standard hotel, rooms are basic and functional, though in need of refurbishment in some areas. Having said that, there is a nice, lived-in feel about the place, so maybe it doesn't need too much gentrification. Staff are extremely polite, helpful and efficient, much more so than in most more-expensive hotels I have visited. Dinner was a little bit disappointing, breakfast was better! Overall, it's a decent place to stay if you are active and looking for somewhere to stay where you won't feel out of place coming in muddy and wet.

The staff were Brilliant. We were given what could be described as a standard room when we arrived. When we showed reception picture of room which was booked they changed room to room on picture immediately. It was mentioned that it should not have been advertised as a superior room. Hotel was perfect for a warm , quiet welcome after a day walking. Staff were fantastic.

A charming Lake District hotel with good food and excellent service, with free parking. The bedrooms were on the small side and so was the bathroom. The wifi was poor in the bedroom.

Midweek holiday

We loved our time at the hotel. We stayed mid week for four nights. Plenty of beautiful walking routes from the hotel. We did not use the car at all. Our bed room was lovely. We were able to make our own warm drinks. The breakfast was a real treat. The three course meal on an evening was fabulous with plenty of choice. The kitchen was able to cater for my husband who eats gluten free. They produced a gluten free menu every day and there was plenty of choice. The staff are very welcoming and the hotel has a homely feel to it. Drinks from the bar on the evenings. We will definitely come back. We had an amazing time.
