"Stayed here a few nights after arriving from the US before moving on to other areas in the Lakes. Excellent location in the heart of Kendal convenient to restaurants and shops. Enjoyed a nice hike right from our door along the river and up to the castle."
"Staff were great. Unfortunatley there was refurb going in outdoor spa area. We did get upgraded to have a hot tub which was great. Outdoor drinks terrace could do with smartening up. Greenary/lighting. Room was lovely."
"It was great to see this grand hotel being invested in. The outside looks amazing and our room 38 (double lake view) had just been refurbished and was tastefully decorated with just the best views of the lake and pier. All the staff we encountered from Persia at check in, to Joy in the restaurant & Nick & Moses in the bar were warm and friendly.
Not all was perfect unfortunately and the Belsfield is still “work in progress”.
On checking in we were told that room service was “on request” (we requested it for our 3 night stay) but this surely should be standard at a 4* hotel.
There was also a sign in the room that stated no bottled water is provided unless specifically required and then a visit to reception would be needed. Again, a surprise omission which along with the need to request the room service left us feeling just minutes from arriving that the Belsfield aim wasn’t to do everything possible to ensure we enjoyed our stay.
Breakfast, was a buffet and no additional orders such as an omelette was available. All the breakfast offerings to include tea & coffee was crammed into a small corner of what was a large room making for a rather chaotic experience. A small à la carte option of omelette’s, poached eggs, eggs Benedict etc would have been welcomed and would also have taken a little pressure away from the buffet.
Despite these aspects, we had a lovely time and would return again knowing some issues will be addressed."
"The staff where lovely friendly and informative. Was nice to be greeted at the car park and tour of hotel. Breakfast was of good quality. Room let us down . Booked through 3rd party was advertised as double room with bathroom containing shower we got shower over bath"
"Top quality hotel in a brilliant location, absolutely loved it here.
We didn’t find a better bar to have a drink in or a better restaurant to eat in, all perfect… with a wonderful view over the lake too!
The leisure facilities really helped too, the pool was a proper pool you could actually swim in!
My only (very slight) observation might be that it did look a bit tired in places, with a bit of paint peeling off here and there."
"Clean room, helpful staff and a nice breakfast selection.
Slightly understaffed at times, but Liam saved the day.
A nice guest lounge but not large enough for the guests wishing to enjoy an after dinner drink, chat or the garden view. And the bar is poorly positioned next to the kitchen and the far end of the dining/breakfast room."
"The hotel is in a beautiful spot famous for red squirrels. It was once a spa hotel therefore has a grand and historic reception area.
The staff throughout the hotel were very welcoming and helpful.
The hotel was very clean as was the room however our room needed some minor repairs to the decor etc.
Our Sat Nav took us on an 'interesting' route to the hotel which was a track through fields of sheep! There is a much easier route from the M6 so just be aware."
"Just off a66
Close by local amenities
Plentiful car parking
Excellent facilities and accommodated a early arrival
Superb carpets , curtains and bedding
Breakfast was a delight with a particular shout out to the orange juice"
