8/10
Lovely hotel with a fab view and wonderful, great value restaurant. We had a welcome upgrade to a lake view room which was clean and had a large bed and good shower. Breakfast was a decent continental spread (although the gluten free options were inferior quality) Great transfer arranged from the airport with courteous driver.
Service was usually good but when a large group entered the restaurant we were then relegated in importance and ignored for long periods.
The bar and reception are close to the stairs and it being an old building the noise carried to our room when the large party partied until 2am. We could also hear every reception conversation.
Light pollution in the room from the TV and the telephone (which lit up when reception were on a call!!) was bad so bring a mask as well as ear plugs.
The town is a tough, uphill walk which means the less mobile need a car. The castle is fabulous but bar a couple of lovely streets it is scruffy and tired. Few bars are inviting for tourists. The railway station is further uphill and buses are not very regular so best to come when the small ferry runs in the summer if you want to visit the other two lake towns.
