Charming Kendal hotel near the Lake District
Riverside Hotel, Kendal, Cumbria
Time-limited





Property details
- Riverside rest: It’s no great secret that people don't necessarily visit Cumbria for its hotels; it’s for the biblically beautiful landscapes on your doorstep that stretch in every direction. That said, a first-rate hotel always makes the stay sweeter, and that’s where Riverside Hotel comes into play. With its traditional design, comfy bedrooms and excellent hospitality, this Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice hotel next to River Kent in historic Kendal is the perfect place to call home as you explore the magic of the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales.
- Delightful dining: Every intrepid explorer will tell you that the key to a good day’s hike all lies in the breakfast. With that in mind, you won’t have to worry about a thing after indulging yourself at the bountiful buffet the hotel lays on every morning. Later in the day, come back to The Tannery Bar for a pint of foaming ale before a quick scrub up and supper at the Riverview Restaurant. The latter has just relaunched its menu, which comprises traditional British fare, and uses locally sourced produce, much of which comes from the hotel's own Victorian kitchen garden, just moments away in Grange-over-Sands.
- R&R: It can be quite easy to over exert yourself in the Lake District, with Windermere, Coniston, Helvellyn and Scafell Pike as your playground. Seeing as this is the case, it's doubly important to make sure you take some time to decompress in the hotel’s spa area. Equipped with a pool, Jacuzzi and a sauna, you’ll find it a great setting to relax in after a long day on your feet. There’s even a fitness centre, just in case you're not convinced you pulled out all the stops that day.
How to get there
Riverside Hotel is right next to River Kent in Kendal, Cumbria.
