Lovely building and lovely room. 2 adults 1 child in bedroom 2. Large room with small ensuite shower, toilet and sink. Situated in a lovely street, can be a bit noisy at night with the pub but not enough to annoy us. Will definitely stay again.

Was simple accomadation. Whole building has a weird smell. Our chests were hurting after waking up. Facilities were standard. There was damp on the ceiling of the shower. Parking was a 7 min walk away which was inconvenient when having luggage to carry.

Nice stay
Nice family room with separate spacious bathroom, located on one way system so some background noise

Just not an enjoyable experience for my wife and I. Car park too far away, too many stairs to climb for elderly couple like us, entrance hallway very dirty. How can this be 4 star property?

Location excellent, staff very friendly and helpfu
The payment method offered rejected every card that we tried and we finally paid at the Lily bar on the day that we arrived. We were very grateful to the bartender who carried our bag upstairs as we were on the top floor. The room was very dark and there were insufficient electrical sockets for the table lights and kettle. The room was clean, but the plumbing was very noisy - sounded like a jet taking off when flushing the toilet. Location was excellent.

Extremely loud basic room
It’s a shame as the room (2) was fine; basic with very small en-suite (needed the tap fixing and the extractor fan before the mould properly sets in, but none issues really!) The actual issue was the noise on a night, it wasn’t that bad on the Friday - there was a live singer which ended at midnight ish. But OMG we thought it would be similar sat night, but after the musician the thumping hard core club music started and went on until 3am. We came away to catch up on sleep and had a lot less than we would with our little ones. Unless you want to join the party avoid!
Francesca, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Left a day early.
Terrible experience. Wish i had read reviews before booking. Stayed in room 2 which was over the bar. Noise from people outside went on until 3am. We had booked for two nights but after one to avoid another sleepless night. Room was dark and felt like a haunted house. Strange red mark left in toilet. Won't be returning.
Michelle, 2-night trip

Bad Parking
Whilst the room was pleasant, the hotel itself was a nightmare to find, its literally a doorway on a high street. We didn't receive the said text message with entry codes to entre the building or further instructions how to find it. Parking was off site, 15 minutes walk away, we had to travel back to the car twice to collect our belongings, not ideal.

Great accommodation, noisy location
The accommodation itself is great. Unfortunately one of the hotels greatest strengths is also a major drawback, at least if you’re a family staying there. There is a very noisy (but good) bar below the hotel. So it was difficult for us and the children to sleep with the music and shouting until the early of hours of the morning.

Small room
Small room and rooms lock is broken. At central but not easy to find.
WEICHIH, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

At first look seems OK but is a bit grotty. It was very noisy, too hot, cooler/fan did not work and shower did not work properly. Could hear every slightest noise from within the building and some kind of boiler kept buzzing very loudly all night. We literally didnt sleep despite trying and checked out at 7AM. I quite franky want a refund and we will never returm again.
Gareth, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Good value for a cheap place to rest your head.
Absolutely fine for a cheaper place to stay as location is good just on a weekend it was very loud. Heard a lot of shouting outside and the hall way didn’t look very inviting. Was clean and we literally just wanted somewhere to sleep as wernt spending any time there.

Cudnt get in , every time we went out we had to call into lily's to get the young girl who was so helpful to get us into the place . If u have mobility issues fhis place is not for u . U have to park your car on a football pitch which is a good 15mins walk . Rooms are really small too . Love Ambleside but would stay here again

Lovely central hotel
We had a lovely time at Ambleside Central. We did struggle with the entrance keypad however after popping into the Lily Bar next door, someone came to our rescue (thank you!) It was central which was perfect for us as we were there to cheer on a friend who was running the Lakes 100. Room was clean and welcoming, we were in room 10 which was on the top floor. The only downside was the stairs to get there and the heat in the room, unfortunately the window wouldn't stay open and the fan did very little. But as we only came in on an evening, it wasn't an issue for us. Room was cosy and comfortable, we had a bathroom in our room and the shower was powerful and welcome after trekking round the hills. All in all 10/10 stay and we would return, albeit after booking directly and requesting a room on a lower floor. But for the price we paid and the condition of the property we found it faultless.

2/10 Poor

It was overall the very disappointing accommodation, so much so that my wife was appalled by the room that I had to book alternative room for the rest for our stay the ‘Lyndale Fuest house’ which was 100x better, roughly the same price per night but no comparison between the room, furthermore you also get a brilliant breakfast as well, better then any cafe in the district handsdown. In summary don’t waste your money on this accommodation. Avoid.
