Pleasant stay, really good size room. Only criticism is that the road it’s on is very noisy but this may have been because of the location of our room.

10/10

Spacious and well lit rooms, comfortable beds. And excellent cooked to order hot breakfast. Slight negative is that the room needs good noise proofing, as we were disturbed by the noise from the other rooms and street.

6/10

Solo traveller who requested a quiet room. I did have to change room from the back of the hotel due to very noisy heating pipes to a room at the front of the hotel which had road noise from a busy junction but better than noise of pipes. Rooms are a bit faded but this is reflected in the price. It is an old building so expect a few quirks. Shower in 2nd room a lot more modern and room in better condition. Staff were excellent and helpful. Didn't eat at hotel. As a stopover from driving back from Scotland it was great value but would recommend requesting a room away from road noise from the front of hotel and avoid room 303 with noisy pipes.

Very clean. Double bed made up of two singles including 2 duvets zipped together. Unfortunately I didn’t sleep brilliantly as I was in the gap being scratched by the zip.

Very nice service. Clean room. Great breakfast, hotel could improve and invest in a coffee machine.

2/10

1 membe of staff covering the bar,reception and serving meals. As a consequence the service was awful. We then waited over an hour for our dinner to be served. Not acceptable. The hotel was full so how come only one front facing staff on duty?

8/10

A great value for money hotel, room was clean and comfortable, the whole building is really warm, so be prepared,! The showers are far to hot for me, but my friend loves them, so its a personal thing, but they dont really go any cooler than Moulton Lava! Breakfast was amazing value for money and exceptionally tasty, the staff are all friendly and helpful. They have an arrangement with the Rugby Club to park for £2 per 24hrs, which unfortunately we didnt know about before! Overall this is a good hotel, the kettle was full of water so cleaners didn't quite pay attention to detail My biggest gripe is dropping my key into a box on reception that i felt was to accessible to everyone, and if the staff member wasn't there i felt even less inclined to drop it in, this really did not sit well with me, plus picking it up every time you come back, getting stuck behind people checking in to do so etc! I just want to go back to my room!

Found the staff very helpful, point out the free car park. Room tidy, and the breakfast was fine.

The staff were great. Really made my stay better. Last minute booking to avoid camping in the torrential weather and the girls working were very helpful with everything. Had an awesome night sleep. Reasonably priced for the comfort provided and breakfast was great! Would stay again.

The County Hotel is a no frills hotel but it is really well located, clean and tidy with friendly staff add has everything you need for a pleasant stay. Above all it was excellent value for money and I’m very happy that I didn’t end up paying more than I needed for a good night sleep and a decent breakfast during my one night stop over in Kendal.

My friend and I came to Kendal for an overnight stay and really enjoyed our time at the County Hotel. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Food was lovely and very reasonable. Would stay again.

4/10

Shower was broken such that the only possible setting was scalding, intolerably hot. We were offered an alternate room but it was in a repurposed outbuilding only accessible via a weird fire escape area, so we decided to put up with the broken shower. The staff just patronised us by saying no one else had complained about it, which I find unbelievable, and that it would be colder if set on half pressure, which we obviously tried and was complete BS. We asked for a late check-out as quid pro quo, and the staff declined. The rooms are generally pretty grim - see photo of the tiny prison-style windows. Kendal isn't great either (besides one very good restaurant named Sapore) and technically not even in the Lake District. If you want lakes, mountains and pretty towns, stay in Ambleside or further Northwest. This is the only review I've ever left on here but this was possibly the worst hotel I've ever stayed in. Locals told us it had changed its name around June 2025, presumably to shed the poor reputation. Beware.

Rm 212, shower tap seem broken, so no hot water come out, then no hot shower. Also the window c’t shut up traffic noise in very early morning

A little disappointing, I understand the hotel has just been purchased, however considering this it took a while to figure out that the hotel is now under a different name. The hotel needs work which is expected, however the fact the restaurant is not open for evening meals was just annoying.

We had problem finding the place as the name on the hotel was different We went past it three times We had to change rooms three times as the central heating was very loud and rattling dreadfully The maintenance man was not working that day No menu for breakfast just asked what cooked food we would like We had to screw the head of the shower up as it was not flowing properly and the mirror in the bathroom was so high I could only see my forehead in it The manager was very apologetic as they had only just taken over the hotel

Hotel is in a convenient location for access to the town centre but has limited (3 spaces) for parking. Decor and facilities are a bit dated and in need of update. Food was good but breakfast was a slow experience as waitres was working alone and struggling to keep up.
