We stayed at the Wordsworth Hotel a couple of years back and at the time I said it was the nicest hotel I’ve stayed in. Welcome card and wine on arrival, amazing breakfast, the pool and sauna facilities all nice touches. Sadly that’s mostly gone now. We booked for my birthday a couple of months ago based on that experience. So when we didn’t experience the same this time around we were a bit disappointed. I went to find out how to access the pool only to find out it’s no longer in use. It was a feature I was looking forward to after a big day out on the fells. Had I known this had changed I wouldn’t have booked the Wordsworth, there’s equal facilities for less or an air b&b. Real shame that the Inn Group have taken over. Other things such as Costa coffee signs stuck on windows and the sign lose some of the mystique of the venue. Feels more like a travel lodge but pricier. I wouldn’t stay again sadly.nnThe redeeming side of things was the staff, particularly in the bar and restaurant who were so friendly and accommodating to us throughout our stay.
What a gorgeous old hotel. Smack in the centre of Grasmere with a large customer car park. The staff were great on reception and in the restaurant too. Our room was on the ground floor, dog friendly, a good size, and the bed was super comfy. The room was about a gazillion degrees however, far too hot, and as the window didn't open we had a sleepless night. In the room is a kettle and also a coffee machine. Hairdryer, good sized wardrobe. The bathroom had a full sized bath, shower. Shampoo and shower gel provided, and snuggly towels. Breakfast was both a buffet and menu to order from, so plenty to eat. The prices in the bar aren't cheap- £8.50 for a glass of wine, but it's a tourist town, so I guess it's to be expected. There's lots of seating in the residents lounge and gorgeous gardens with outdoor seating too. I'd happily go back again.
Very pretty village and setting. There is plenty of character and a dose of local history with great hiking routes from the front door. If you're looking for a quiet getaway, the location is great.nnWe went for the suite, the room was spacious and clean with decent facilities.nnHowever, it's 3 stars at best. It was mostly let down by the food. We were disappointed with the quality of both breakfast and dinner. The poor quality is unfortunately bound to high prices making the whole experience unpalatable.
This is our second visit to The Wordsworth and we love it. Its clean, inexpensive and full of charm. Rooms differ depending on budget as we've stayed in a very fancy suite and also a dog friendly cosy double however neither disappointed. The hotel is spotless and the food, service and grounds are brilliant for the price. Yesterday we did a 1 night winter break costing £135 in a dog friendly cosy double. The room was value for money, we got full English breakfast and £26 per person off our evening meal all for this great price. Its central to all the walks in Grasmere and we will be returning as sitting in the reception in front of the open fire with a nice drink in the most peaceful of places is simply bliss.
