Castle Inn Hotel, BW Signature Collection

This place was very nice. It was our first stop after arriving in London and our home base for the Lake District National Park. We were looking for a hotel outside of town with parking and this place was perfect. The hotel and facilities were clean and well maintained. The reception was a little tricky to find, but during the day it should be fine. We got there around 3am and were at a door on the wrong side of the hotel, so I called the desk and the night person actually walked all the way through the hotel to the other side to come get me ... How's that for service! Overall we had a very pleasant stay and I would definitely recommend if you're looking for a chain hotel in the area, but not right in the heart of town. less

Nice comfortable place to stay, its part of Best Western hotels. With friendly staff and nice food menu choices either from the restaurant or adjoining Castle Inn Tavern. The hotel also as an indoor swimming pool, sauna, steam room and gym. The hotel is a good base for exploring the lakes, hiking or even wildlife park. Its about a 30 minute drive to Cockermouth the birthplace of William Wandsworth, his house is under the National Trust. Also, Keswick an olde-worldy small town is 4 miles from the Castle Inn hotel. less

Travelling home North, decided to stay over for the night, have stayed at this hotel before. On entering the hotel, noticed everything had changed. Our room was ok and clean, a little dated but was clean and comfortable. As it was raining we turned the heating on and the room quickly warmed up. Dinner was good and the staff very friendly and helpful. less

Checked in on Friday evening for a wedding on Sunday morning at a hotel 5 minutes down the road. Was pleasantly surprised with the size of the double room I had booked. It had 2 tvs in the room along with an iron, ironing board, free safe, kettle with tea & coffee with biscuits. Bathroom was very spacious with a bath and shower and shower gels etc were included. Excellent comfortable bed. Room pretty old fashioned but this didn't matter as it was large and very comfortable. Hotel was so much larger than I expected and I didn't realise that they catered for weddings etc. Breakfast was continental and cooked. Nice atmosphere and good service. I saw 2 receptionists during our stay and both were very pleasant and helpful. The only downside that I met was that the toilet rolls and towels were not replenished the next day so we had to call reception for them. Not a great view from our windows but very well kept gardens to look at. less

Our stay was amazing from start to finish. We had stayed in separate rooms the night before which were both clean and spacious. We had booked a meal for the evening before for 13 and our baby where were given one side of the restaurant to ourselves. The day of the wedding could not have been any better Tom went above and beyond to make our day special and done an amazing job. The food was amazing all of our guests loved the food not one complaint and not one wrong order. Tom is a credit to the hotel!!! less
