We enjoyed our stay in Penrith
Pros:

We have stayed at this hotel a number of times and is an ideal situation. The staff are very welcoming and bedroom very comfortable and clean

Cons:

The hotel has been refurbished since our last visit it literally as it states use to be a hotel and BAR, on our recent visit we came down from our room to have a drink in the bar, we were served with our drinks but then could not be seated as all the tables were reserved which I found very unacceptable and told we could take our drinks into the hotel reception area. Surely if you are staying at the hotel some of the tables should be available for residents staying there. It was more of a restaurant setting and not a bar as it previously was.

One night stay at the lounge hotel.
Pros:

Had a warm welcome at reception. Young lady was very helpful and informative. We had a free upgrade to a very nice and spacious room. Evening meal and breakfast were both very good.

Cons:

Room didn't have much of a view. Quite a lot of stairs and corridors to reach the room but that was a small price to pay for a delightful room.

Overall it was a great stay apart from a couple of things. I think the should let you know if your in the attic room
Pros:

The layout downstairs. The bar and the terrace looked nice although wasn’t set up because of time of year

Cons:

We were in a attic room with a skylight I prefer a view
There was a glass water bottle and glasses but the water bottle wasn’t filled

Lovely accomodation and staff
Pros:

Smooth checkin, great 3 bed flat , right in the city center, lovely staff. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

Cons:

We’ve ordered Cumbrian breakfast which unfortunately was not what we’ve expected. The waiting for the food was long and when it arrived, the quality of it was quite poor. I would recommended to have breakfast somewhere else.
