I was going to put this review on under restaurants but despite having two AA rosettes the Rothay Garden is not listed under restaurants. The food here is very good well worth two rosettes. The dining room is a recent build on which is contemporary inside and works well with the modern decor inside this traditional Lakeland slate exterior building.... More

This was my first visit to Grasmere since I was in the scouts approximately 50 years ago. The stay was courtesy of our good friends who bought us a gourmet experience as a birthday present. We had such a good stay that we have booked to return in August for our wedding anniversary! The hotel is in a traditional Lakeland... More

The hotel is generally fine. OK location, quiet. And we got a room facing the river at the back, so that was good. Unfortunately, the lady manager spoilt my vacation. On the second day and at our first breakfast at the hotel, she insisted that I sit at the same place that I had dinner the day before. I wanted... More

After many years away from Grasmere we were happily pleased to find that the village has not lost its charm since the first time we visited in 1976. We really enjoyed our short stay at the Rothay Garden hotel, clean modern rooms, excellent food and helpful, friendly staff. The weather was not too kind but the spa really made up... More

We first stayed at the Rothay Garden in 2009 before the addition of the spa. We had a lovely Grasmere room which was very spacious and overlooked the river but what really stood out then was the restaurant and the food. Based on our experience then, we went back again in late April . This time we had a Langdale... More

Another trip to an amazing hotel, we have enjoyed every minute. We love to enjoy an early breakfast in the hotel then venture out walking all the time thinking about returning to the fantastic spa....heaven. Evening meals incredible, staff very helpful, what more do you need on holiday.

My husband booked this hotel as a surprise for my birthday, and we were so very pleasantly surprised. The hotel is situated in a perfect position, just right for exploring the village, and further walks if need be. We booked one of the cheaper rooms, without a balcony, but to be fair the room was excellent and we wouldnt have... More

This was the second time we have been to Grasmere and by far the best due to the gorgeous hotel and spa. The staff were all very attentive and pleasant and made our stay all the better,nothing was to much trouble. The food was out of this world,would definitely recommend the banana Mille feuille. We will definitely be returning next... More

The Hotel This is a very beautiful hotel set in the lovely village of Grasmere. Getting into the village on foot is a two minute walk. The staff are friendly and the gardens and views surrounding the hotel are fabulous. It’s a very quiet hotel so if you want to go somewhere to relax that’s a bit more decadent that... More
