Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Cleanliness
The staff were friendly and very helpful.
We stayed for 4 nights and the room was never cleaned in that time.
I question the parking policy whereby guests booking directly with the hotel they receive free parking, whereas booking via an agency I am required to pay £12/day extra for parking. Please see this from a guests perspective rather than your own profitability. All guests should be treated equally regardless of which channel they used to find and book the accomodation.
Brathay Lodge makes for a very comfortable and convenient stay in the Lake District. The room was modern and well-maintained and the staff friendly and considerate.
There is a parking fee (unless booked direct) but you’d have to pay elsewhere anyway. If you have an electric car it’s a good idea to let them know in advance so you can use their reasonably-priced ProjectEV charger.
The continental breakfast was fresh and varied and set us up for the day.
Would definitely stay there again.
Great property, ideally located with clean and comfortable rooms. Staff were helpful and friendly, there’s a nice continental breakfast included and there’s on site parking which is a rarity in most properties in Ambleside
This is our first trip to Lake District and Brathay Lodge helped to make it a great family experience for us. Very clean and spacious room, nice breakfast, staffs are nice can helpful especially for arranging EV charging.
We spent 3 nights at Brathay Lodges.
The rooms are spacious and fairly modern with a lovely en-suite bathroom.
Breakfast was a lovely continental breakfast with a good range of options.
We would stay again!
Very impressed. Great to find a three bedroom room, which really helped keep costs down. Room nice and clean with a good view. Staff very friendly. And I’d forgotten breakfast was included so a really nice continental breakfast as a bonus!
