This was our first trip to the Patterdale Hotel but it won’t be our last, and we have been to many Choice Hotels and like their “well organised” approach. I really cannot understand any of the criticism you will see on here, the Patterdale does what it says on the tin! This is a very good quality midrange hotel which does not claim to be a 5 Star, and it offers great deals. We stayed on a 4-night midweek Dinner Bed and Breakfast deal which was excellent value for money. Worth paying the supplement for a view room, which are clean and comfortable, just short of a mini-fridge. The food was excellent, buffet breakfast but also some excellent breakfast menu choices including Kippers. The 3 course evening meal menus offered a varied classic range of foods, hearty and well prepared and delivered with the military precision we expect from Choice Hotels. I perhaps wouldn’t recommend a visit to my vegan step-daughter or anyone with weird dietary requirements, but us “typical’s” should love it. The hotel is especially well placed for walkers and therefore specifically caters for them (this is a no dogs allowed hotel). The views, location and weather were wonderful, and we will visit again as it is an great step-off point for touring the Lake District.
