Liked: Staff & service
Parking good and seemed secure, missed the part of a £3 fee when booking, maybe we overlooked. Our standard room was on 3rd floor, no lift, so wished we’d packed lighter! An old building which might explain the marked slope in the room which took some adjustment. Hot water took an age to come through. Beer great in the bar. Top notch breakfast. Very pleasant & efficient staff. Hotel enjoys great position, suited us on a long journey from the Far North….would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic hotel right in the middle of Penrith, which is a lovely town. Hotel has parking, which is really useful as it was hard to come by in the town itself when I was there. Special thank you to Petra at reception and the housekeeping team. I had accidentally left a piece of jewellery in my room at checkout. The piece of jewellery in question is very valuable, especially for sentimental reasons. The housekeeping colleague had taken it down to reception for safe keeping, but Petra had gone the extra mile to personally call me to let me know and she had even gone to the post office to post it back to my home address. I can’t tell you how grateful I am for your care and grace. This shows the class of the hotel and its staff, and that you are in incredibly safe and caring hands when you are there. Thank you Petra and thank you George Hotel for a lovely stay.

Ideal stop off going or coming from the highlands

We stayed for one night on our way home from visiting the highlands with our dog , the room was quiet small to stay in , the breakfast was very tasty where you helped yourself to continental style plus you can have a cooked breakfast if required which was included in the stay, staff was friendly and helpful , the location is perfect to have a stroll round Penrith , plenty of places to eat and drink, as this is just off the motorway Penrith is busy with traffic, with the hotel on the road, we thought when we slept you would hear this but you don’t.
