My stay at the Rothay Garden was absolutely delightful, combining cozy accommodations with outstanding dining and an exceptionally relaxing spa experience. I thoroughly enjoyed the personalized service from the staff, who provided thoughtful attention to detail. While the hotel is in a beautiful setting, I felt it was still finding its footing under new management, which slightly affected the usual vibe of excellence. Overall, it's a fantastic choice for a restful getaway in the Lake District, but there were moments where I felt a bit of the previous charm was missing.

The Rothay Garden Hotel offers a luxurious and charming experience, especially with its beautiful decor and comfortable accommodations. The staff truly went out of their way to enhance our stay, making us feel special. However, there was a hiccup in communication regarding our bookings due to a change in ownership, which left us disappointed. The culinary experience was outstanding, but the dining situation could have been more seamless considering the circumstances.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, providing easy access to walks and the quaint village of Grasmere, but the room's lack of privacy was disappointing, especially for the price. The dining experience exceeded expectations with a great variety of delicious options, and the overall ambiance was cozy and welcoming. However, I was let down by the room's cleanliness standards which could be improved.
