Great location for a town centre break. Lovely friendly atmosphere in the bar from all the staff. Ate our evening meal and breakfast in the bar and we were very happy with the choices. Room was well equipped with everything we would need, including a fan and extra pillows. One of the friendliest places I've stayed at and would happily stay here again

Location was great, very central.
Staff weren’t the friendliest, and didn’t seem to want to be there.

Location is perfect which is why we keep coming back. The rooms are clean and nice looking. Good menu. Great cooked breakfast.
The towels were changed but that was it. No replenishment of tea, coffee, milk or biscuits. The cups weren't washed up.
It's a busy and popular pub. It was Easter so it was always going to be busy. They could really do with extra staff as the wait to get served was terrible and the tables needed cleaning etc. It's a shame as everything else is great and the staff are too. There just isn't enough of them!

They took my money for a double room and breakfast for two people, but I was just one person. They told me to write to Booking to resolve my situation, Booking wrote me to speak directly with the property. The result is that I paid for a service they didn't offer. Very dishonest! Both of them, Booking and the property.

location in the heart of Ambleside is perfect as a base while in the Lake District.
2nd stay here @the Ambleside inn - 1 year apart. very disappointed with the stay this week. it’s such a lovely pub in a great location but sadly let down by some aspects that now seem a feature. Check in was long and quite unfriendly - the bar food menu choices are limited and in honesty quite bland, especially given the produce on the doorstep! Some of the staff require some training when dealing with paying customers that expect a warm welcome and general politeness.

Beautiful building & beautifully decorated for Christmas and in the perfect location
Our room was slightly small and had a pointless round writing table right next to the dressing table taking up valuable space but everything else was perfect
8.0
The staff were fantastic, the hotel was spotless in a great location as well and an excellent breakfast. Dined in one evening and food was restaurant standard.
There was a big fan in the room and for good reason. It was unbearably hot even with the window open and fan on. Couldn't work out why as the radiator was off and there was no underfloor heating.

The breakfast was good and plenty if it.
Could have done with some drawers in the bedroom, only shelves. Also needed a shelf in the bathroom for toiletries.

The location is brilliant and so central. Rooms were clean and comfy! Staff were very helpful! 😁
Nothing! We were a party of three females away for a birthday celebration night away! The family room was great and just what we needed for somewhere to sleep and change. All good.

Big revamp has vastly improved bar/restaurant area
Rooms and communal areas smartened up to a slightly lesser degree
Cold restaurant caused by door being open and staff refusing to close it.
Cold evening would have benefitted from the wood burning stove being turned on in bar area.
Staff stacking up chairs whilst we were eating.
Customers having sweets put on table ehilst still eating main courses.
