Stayed at the Skiddaw whilst the beer festival was on the rooms were nice and clean, the bathroom was very large and again spotless. My only issue was the creaky floorboards outside the room which as people started going for breakfast was very annoying. The breakfast was great,good selection and freshly made to order. The parking pass was a great... More

Wonderful area to visit. The hotel was very good, very clean and staff friendly. the breakfasts and dinners were great, such a variety of choices. Would most certainly go back to The Skiddaw. All the people on the coach praised this hotel.

Very Comfortable, clean and welcoming. In the centre of Keswick, so easy access to the town square and shops. Five minutes walk to the lake. Perfect centre for touring the Lakes. Restaurant serves excellent food and the bar is just fine. Looking forward to returning.

This is an old established, slightly creaky hotel in the heart of town. The rooms are simply furnished and slightly old fashioned, and if your room is on the upper floor you'll need a decent pair of legs to get to your room after a days walking. That said, the place is spotlessly clean, the staff are very pleasant and... More
