"Hotel and location lovely. We were just slightly disappointed in the spa, after a long day walking we were looking forward to relaxing in the spa with a jacuzzi/ hot tub but there was only a pool."

Riverside Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Underground car park was a welcome bonus. Use sat nav to find it though. not the hotels fault that there is a long one way system in kendal. put it in sat nav before you leave the motorway to get the best route. Debs on reception was great. bar food was excellent (evening meal and breakfast). I was on a business trip but will definitely go back with the better half when visiting Kendal."
