Top Armitt Museum and Library Hotel Reviews

Ambleside Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Great location with parking. Lovely room."

The Gables Guest House

8/10 Good

"Very warm welcome and friendly staff, very comfy bed and hot shower. Close to town. Full English breakfast every morning what more do you need! Warren was really nice and let me check in early. Thank you for a lovely stay."

Melrose Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Melrose Guest House was just brilliant from start to finish. There wasn’t one single thing I could find fault with. Everything was so clean and the breakfast one was of the best I have had. There was so much choice of breakfast items. Tracy and Alan are brilliant hosts. A bonus was the included secure parking area, only a couple of minutes away from the property. The guesthouse is very near to the town centre of Ambleside. Definitely stay there if you are in the area."

Ambleside Salutation Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the balcony,more like a little garden. Very comfortable stay,spa bath in room was a nice surprise. Spa facilities were good amazing ❤️"

Ambleside Central

8/10 Good

"Impossible to rate staff as there are none Shower a little small Place was very clean and I had no problem with noise All in all I would have no qualms about staying there again The code access worked a treat"

Ambleside Guest House

8/10 Good

"It's not a bad place to spend a night or two but is pretty dated and expensive for what you get. For some reason, no bath towels were provided and instead you get four hand towels. There was also only decaf coffee. All this would be fine if it was cheap, but it's not."

Gable End, Luxury Apartment, Central Ambleside

10/10 Excellent

"Gable End was an ideal place for our multigenerational group to stay. It was right in the middle of everything in Ambleside, which gave everyone from 19 to 79 something fun to do all day. They stocked the cottage with supplies and a bottle of prosecco for us to enjoy, plus we had a fun time playing some of the games in the downstairs living area. It was the perfect home base for exploring the Lake District. I’d book again in a heartbeat!"

Kirkstone Cottage, ideal for romantic break, close to Ambleside town centre and pubs

8/10 Good

"Lovely well equipped cottage in an excellent location. Clean and very comfortable bed. Parking space is a bonus for Ambleside. Would recommend this property to others."

1 bedroom accommodation in Ambleside

8/10 Good

"This cottage is very characterfu, cosy and well equipped. The location is very quiet yet just a short walk to all the amenities Ambleside has to offer. Points that I would note are, the parking permit that you get allows you to park for free in MOST of the car parks in Ambleside but at very busy periods it can be very difficult to find a space, and we found this made us feel very anxious about travelling around during the day. It would be good if the bath plug was fixed an upgrade on the TV would be good, other than that I would recommend a stay here."
