Self check-in was super easy, the room was small but cozy and had a great vibe. Netflix on the TV was great, too! All the facilities were nice, and the room had everything I needed. Location was perfect, on a quiet street with a pub just on the other side of the road, a short walk to Windermere town centre, and walkable distance to Lake Windermere (but the bus stop was also really close if you’re not much of a walker). It was a little warm at night but the room had an electric fan so it wasn’t too much of a problem. I would absolutely stay here again and would recommend this place to others!

It was in a perfect location for both walking and getting in and out of the town , onsite parking The kitchen was equipped with all the necessities and a set of GHD straighteners and good hairdryer at a dressing table. The rooms were set out perfectly with plenty of space

I didn’t like the faux fur throws on the bed or the Occasional pillows , this is just MY ick and I think hotels should just remove them altogether , they harbour germs , saying that the staff were happy to remove them for me when I asked , so this is by no means a complaint about this hotel , just my opinion on throws and cushions

The single room was small but have all amenities needed , including a small desk fan. The room is a bit stuffy if fan is not switched on as the windows cannot be opened ( my room is on ground level) next to car park. Room was quiet though as I didn't hear the car sounds. The hotel is 20-min walk to Bowness where there are many restaurants and can cruise on Lake Windermere.

Hotel is 15-min walk from Windermere train station. So not so convenient for those travel by train. I see most other guests seem to drive and the hotel has quite a number of parking lots.

Great facilities in room. Bathroom is very compact but spacious enough not to feel suffocating. Beds were very comfortable, the room comes with a hair dryer and hair straightener for those who need it. Towels are provided, TV was great, and most beneficial of all, was that the room we had, had it's own WiFi, meaning you can stream content onto the TV and as it's a smart TV you could also log in to the streaming apps.

There isn't any AC, however don't let that put you off. Only noting this here as an FYI but with their Dyson bladeless fan, it was totally fine and we stayed on a very hot day. There were some lighting issues, however there was alternative means that resolved this like the ceiling LED lights. Might not be for all though.

The property and location are ideal! Plenty of space in the room with gorgeous surroundings. Close to the main town with enough distance between. Will definitely look to return!

The property itself was perfect however I would have expected the room to be fully serviced whereas we were only provided with fresh clean towels on the second day of our stay - the bins were not emptied and no toilet paper was provided. This however did not put us off the stay but would recommend this is reviewed for future guests.

This is not my first stay at Kotel. This Hotel is amazing. The Manager is such a helpful and lovely lady. She along with all the staff are so helpful. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. This house represents a long by gone era. My N0 1 choice. Jasper my dog adores this location and loves the staff. They know us so well and they always make a fuss of both of us, Charming.

I cannot reply to this question. This question has no relevence for me. Absolutely no issues. I cannot fault this beautifully run and maintained hotel. The owner Edward and his partner are two of the most polite and Engaging /Charming individuals, I have ever met.

There were thoughtful little details like dishwashing liquid, dish cloth, sponge etc. Also the checking in and checking out process was really fast and easy. They allowed us to store our suitcases in the office till we had to leave for the train station. when there were no taxis available, the manager , despite his busy schedule, kindly drove us to the station at no extra cost! Such kindness and hospitality is rare to find. Its location is ideal too - walking distance to the town centre and the Windermere lake and well connected to bus routes.

Good location. Nice furniture and room finish.Good shower and bathroom. Microwave and fridge a good bonus.

There was no wardrobe or usable drawers. Studio room was ok in size but with nowhere to unpack properly, stayed for four nights in a week of travelling, we could only hang a few blouses/shirts on the wall hooks! Had to keep suitcase on the limited floor space, so easily accessible and so it always felt untidy to us. Drawers in dresser we very small, not big enough to unpack clothes in.

The studio was spotlessly clean and well equipped. We also loved the mood lighting.

Upon booking, the option is 2x single beds or an extra large double, being a couple. we opted for the double. When we arrived, it was 2 single beds joined together, which meant it wasn't very comfortable to sleep as one of us kept falling into the gap between. Also, the walls are really thin. We could hear every word of a couple arguing in the studio next to us through the night.

Mr IMRE was MOST helpful, he deserves compliments from the owners. Everything at the kotel was to a high standard.

Kotel's confirmation email said that the code to access my room would be sent to my EMAIL address before check in time. it wasn't. Instead it was sent by TEXT MESSAGE to my phone. Which of course I didn't see. Sending by text message is fine and sensible - because emails can be delayed. But please CORRECT your check in instructions email to say: code by "text message" not "email". Thx
