Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
From the outside hotel looks amazing and same for the bar area, then you walk to the back where rooms are and it’s in need of a face lift, carpets are worn and dirty and paint work needs a freshen up and the final touches in areas like the bathroom were sealant has been used looked like done via a novice, I go to lots of hotels around the lakes and for the money for 1 night expect more for my money it’s these little touches that can ruin the break away

Ro Hotel
Ro Hotel not our usual type of hotel, found it a little too corporate for our liking so only for that reason we wouldn’t stay again. Very clean and excellent choice for breakfasts. Very noisy on late evenings as our room faced the entrance/exit and car park; room very small and a little claustrophobic. Area of corridor on ground floor smelt musty from ceiling leaks, a few mop buckets around catching the rain. We didn’t use facilities on evenings so can’t comment on service or facilities available.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The Ro hotel was situated close to the centre of Bowness and was clean and obviously fairly recently been repainted. condition was in general good although the carpets looked like they needed replacing. The rooms were comfortable and the food was good. Drinks were a little on the expensive side and I was unhappy having to pay for car parking at the hotel when we were staying there. However we had a good trip and stay.
