Lovely comfortable hotel.
Stayed for 2 very comfortable nights. Hotel is clean with very good staff. The room was spacious and well equipped. The bathroom really good too. Heating worked well and was easily controlled. The restaurant was very reasonably priced with good service. The breakfast was really good too. The first morning it was almost cold! But much better on the Friday morning. Parking very convenient too I would recommend this to others and would happily stay here again.

A lovely 2 nights in the lake district
A lovely stay at The Waterhead Hotel with a lake view. We heard very little noise from other guests moving though the hallways. Heating was provided by 2 large radiators with adjustable thermostats which was ok for us. Bed was very comfy. Bathroom was clean and a lovely bath and fab shower. The hotel is a bit of a warren with stairs leading all over, there was a lift in one part but could not see one near our part. If I'd had more than a couple of pints I'm sure I would have got lost. Parking is tight so get there as close to check in as you can. The public car park next door is £8.50 for 24 hrs at present and wasn't so far to walk but is up a load of stairs or steep incline for some. Food was lovely we had breakfast both mornings a lovely fry up each time. We also had a main evening meal the 2nd night price seemed in line with other hotels food quality was good. No children with us but the kids menu was reasonable also.

Lovely stay
The Inn was lovely and we enjoyed our stay, the view, the location, tand everything was great. The only thing was the "free drinks" vouchers we got, which we did not know mean that if we use them our rooms won't get cleaned the following day, so it would have been nice if the staff told us that before we used them, and we'd have simply paid for our pint. Also, no phones in the rooms.

3 separate Inn properties were stayed in during our current UK visit from Canada. Each Inn was exceptional in all aspects. Highly recommend their hotels in the N/E and Lake District. .. will certainly use them again during any future vacation.. 5 star indeed!

What a beautiful inn and great location (pretty much llakeside). Our room was spacious and had a lakeview. Bed was very comfortable. Very friendly staff. Food was good and on a rainy day, people just hung out in the dining area enjoying the views and conversation. Definitely recommend.

Overpriced
The staff were very helpful and friendly. Food in restaurant was really good, and also expensive. I ordered the monkfish and prawn curry, and it was a very small portion and I had to ask for more sauce. Breakfast was manic, had to wait over half an hour for my breakfast, after complaining they reluctantly did not charge me. I think it is very expensive to stay here and did not reach my expectations for what I paid.

The Waterhead Inn is in a stunning location on the shore of Lake Windermere with open views over to The Langdales. A short walk to the centre of Ambleside, with friendly, helpful staff and rare, coveted parking.

Waterhead Inn was easy to find, great location and amazing views. Staff very friendly and highly attentive. The room was big and clean, one of the two windows unfortunately would not open which was a pain as it was so hot this week. Lovely bathroom. Food menus really good, lots of selection and nice to have a choice of local ales. Would have stayed an extra night but needed better insentive with the discount. But still highly recommend to family and friends!
