Bed was very comfortable and the room was generally clean. I appreciated the addition of a fan. Toilet had a bad smell though and the remote control for the TV was really dirty. Also very thick dust on the extendable TV wall mount. Minor gripes though as it was amazing value. Would stay there again.

Spacious and clean rooms

Spacious and well lit rooms, comfortable beds. And excellent cooked to order hot breakfast. Slight negative is that the room needs good noise proofing, as we were disturbed by the noise from the other rooms and street.

Hotel is on corner of s busy road so lots of traffic. Checkin was easy with friendly staff (one only) and who also covered the bar! Learned the otel had gone cashless but there banking machines were not working. So 1st nighr paid cash. 2nd night had to pay on line! Website needs updating to refllect this. Room was OK but windows need a very good clean Shower was either red hot or scoulding. Reported to staff who said they'd get it fixed. Appeared there was an issue with the boiler! Breakfast was very good nice and hot full English. No actual car park here but could have used the local cricket club for £2 a day. I would stay here again if in Kendal. Just needs a few tweeks.

A great place jto stay for visiting Kendal and surrounding area. It was a bit difficult to find given the name, COUNTY HOTEL on the building, but Lakeland Kendal hotel on a stree level sign. It is the sane place. The hotel has mno official parking, but we got there early and parked right outside the main door, where we left our car for three days and nights wirhout interruption. The is a carpark elsewhere off the property. The staff were the most kind and helpful one is likely to meet. They made us feel qelcome from the very start of our stay.

The County Hotel is a no frills hotel but it is really well located, clean and tidy with friendly staff add has everything you need for a pleasant stay. Above all it was excellent value for money and I’m very happy that I didn’t end up paying more than I needed for a good night sleep and a decent breakfast during my one night stop over in Kendal.

Quirky hotel

Solo traveller who requested a quiet room. I did have to change room from the back of the hotel due to very noisy heating pipes to a room at the front of the hotel which had road noise from a busy junction but better than noise of pipes. Rooms are a bit faded but this is reflected in the price. It is an old building so expect a few quirks. Shower in 2nd room a lot more modern and room in better condition. Staff were excellent and helpful. Didn't eat at hotel. As a stopover from driving back from Scotland it was great value but would recommend requesting a room away from road noise from the front of hotel and avoid room 303 with noisy pipes.

Disappointing

A little disappointing, I understand the hotel has just been purchased, however considering this it took a while to figure out that the hotel is now under a different name. The hotel needs work which is expected, however the fact the restaurant is not open for evening meals was just annoying.

New Ownership

We had problem finding the place as the name on the hotel was different We went past it three times We had to change rooms three times as the central heating was very loud and rattling dreadfully The maintenance man was not working that day No menu for breakfast just asked what cooked food we would like We had to screw the head of the shower up as it was not flowing properly and the mirror in the bathroom was so high I could only see my forehead in it The manager was very apologetic as they had only just taken over the hotel

Broken shower, grim rooms, stubborn staff

Shower was broken such that the only possible setting was scalding, intolerably hot. We were offered an alternate room but it was in a repurposed outbuilding only accessible via a weird fire escape area, so we decided to put up with the broken shower. The staff just patronised us by saying no one else had complained about it, which I find unbelievable, and that it would be colder if set on half pressure, which we obviously tried and was complete BS. We asked for a late check-out as quid pro quo, and the staff declined. The rooms are generally pretty grim - see photo of the tiny prison-style windows. Kendal isn't great either (besides one very good restaurant named Sapore) and technically not even in the Lake District. If you want lakes, mountains and pretty towns, stay in Ambleside or further Northwest. This is the only review I've ever left on here but this was possibly the worst hotel I've ever stayed in. Locals told us it had changed its name around June 2025, presumably to shed the poor reputation. Beware.

Friendly staff, good breakfast. I was worried it would be noisy from traffic due the location as I was allocated a room at the front of the hotel but it was surprisingly quiet after rush hour settled down.
