“This centrally located hotel, with its 300-year history and pet-friendly environment, stands out as a Penrith landmark; the Devonshire Restaurant's two AA Rosettes confirm its commitment to gourmet British cuisine. I appreciate the blend of historical charm and modern amenities, especially for those eager to explore the Lake District. It's a solid choice.”

Comfortable Stay with Excellent Facilities
clean roomwide selectionhigh noise
The room was spacious and clean. The shower in the bathroom was modern (with good water pressure!). Breakfast offered a wide selection of choices. I especially enjoyed the freshly baked pastries. The staff at the reception were always available and ready to help with any inquiries. They provided useful information about local attractions.
I found the noise level from the street a bit high during the night. This made it difficult to sleep without earplugs (I should have brought some).

The hotel provides complimentary access to a fitness center. This includes cardio machines and a selection of free weights. Guests can also use the on-site parking (a convenient feature). The hotel also offers complimentary Wi-Fi access.
