Somewhere inexpensive to stay a couple of nights while visiting the Lake District.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Our check in was difficult. They texted codes to us for entry to the building and to our room, and sent it by WhatsApp as well. However, being from Canada we did not have access to our Canadian text plan and don't have WhatsApp. The staff in the adjoining pub were able to help us out by contacting whoever from the hotel. This "hotel" has no lobby or staff, so should probably be classed as a hostel. Once inside our room was two floors up, with stairs only. So be prepared to carry your luggage. Also, once we were in the UK we got an email with a pdf to print for our parking permit. We had no access to a printer, so that wasn't possible. It would have been helpful to have received this before we left home. The room itself was quite adequate, with a nice shower. One night we had to resort to earplugs as the couple on the other side of the wall were having a long conversation that wasn't even that loud, but was very disturbing. Knowing all this, I would stay here again and be prepared for the nuisance factors. The location is very convenient, right in the middle of town and less than a block from the bus.

Ambleside central stay
Good size clean room with clear information about check in and car parking. Nice bar attached where we ate one night ( Lily Bar). Only slight downside which didn’t spoil our stay was that it was suggested on a notice in the room that bins would be emptied daily and we hoped that if that was done the loo roll would also be topped up but the bins weren’t emptied so we had to ask at the bar for more loo roll which was in fairness delivered very quickly. Good stay overall at a decent price in a good location

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.
