Mixed reviews

Hotel was going through a renovation when we arrived which we weren’t aware of prior to arriving. Stairs full of painting accessories, spa closed. The room Was small with an angled roof, small double bed. The bathroom was really nice and modern, can’t fault the cleanliness. Staff were really pleasant but difficult to get hold of. No way of telling them you were at the desk and we stood for ages trying to get a drink even though we were the only ones in the bar. Breakfast was disappointing as was mainly fried. Bar area modern and welcoming. A bit of a mixed review tbh! The pub down the road was great (Romneys)

This is a very nice hotel, but was under construction when we were there, so a bit jumbled. Will be much better when the construction is finished. Easy, good parking and a nice walk into Kendal.

There is extensive refurbishment happening which meant that there were no spa, pool, sauna facilities as advertised. There were only a few tired rooms in operation whilst the rest were being updated, but it is a building site and not the 4 star luxury we were expecting..... although it came with the same cost! For the price paid, it was disappointing, in fact, extortionate. I appreciate things need updating, but it would have been nice to know before we booked. I also understand the Stonecross will probably blame external sites for this, but unfortunately, the buck stops with you Stonecross. The staff were very friendly in difficult circumstances and I don't blame them in the slightest. But, I would not pay £160 per room per night PLUS breakfast, it wasn't worth it. The location was good and the restaurant served nice meals.

Nice location and well presented areas. Spa facilities are not available currently, which was disappointing. The staff were lovely, breakfast was very good and the room was small but good. A very good stay, despite the spa disappointment.

Cosy for a weekend break

A lovely hotel for a weekend but shame the SPA was under renovation. Was a cosy hotel & comfortable. But rooms need an update. Our shower head kept dripping, which was annoying. The reception/bar area was cosy. Didnt have breakfast, but looked peaceful. Car par was small so my friend struggled a bit.

We arrived late and the front desk was so accommodating when the room we booked (two twin) was not available. They offered to convert a king room into a twin and were so helpful and friendly. The room was clean, tidy, and had a beautiful view. Breakfast was outstanding. Would definitely stay here again.

Dated and Tired Rooms

The hotel was going through an extension and refurbishment when we visited. The pool and spa facilities were also closed. The corridors to the rooms were dimly lit and smelt quite stale. The downstairs was quite nice and modern but the room we had was in a desperate need of updating. One wall looked as if someone had tested different paint pots on it. Painted woodwork was dirty, chipped etc. The tiny TV had about 6 stations which were impossible to watch as there was aerial problems. The curtains barely covered the actual window when pulled. The bathroom looked clean but there was nowhere to put out toiletry bags. The shower squirted water everywhere from its connection at the top, and the toilet bowl definited needed a deep clean! On a positive note, the staff were very pleasant and friendly and the cooked breakfast was great.
