Excellent accessible room. Lots of space for wheelchairs, very relaxed atmosphere. Close to main street in Bowness but at the top of a very steep hill. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Clean hotel, buffet breakfast. Small bar given the size of the hotel which closed early on a Saturday night.
We had a lake view family room which was big and comfortable. However there was a drainage smell in the bathroom.
The pool and hot tub are fabulous

Beautiful location, views are stunning on the outside terrace, rooms are lovely whilst small has all you need although would suggest a mirror on the dressing table. Breakfast was lovely, drinks very reasonably priced with a good selection and lovely welcoming staff.

We stayed for a weekend at The Ro hotel and had a lovely time. The staff are all friendly and work so hard. The hotel it's self is slightly dated in some areas but that adds to it's charm. We also used the wellness centre and would definitely recommend it. It's really clean and modern with lots to offer.
The hotel is is really central to windermere, we were able to walk everywhere easily. We'd definitely stay here again.

Receptionist chap. Was v patient. We swapped rooms 2 times and settled on the 3rd. Wish was fantastic. Bar staff were great too. We didn’t eat in the restaurant in the evening but breakfasts were great

We stay here each year for the Great North Swim. One of the best in the area. Staff are friendly and can’t do enough for you. The hill up to the hotel is a killer if your fitness levels are not great and parking can be a small issue if it’s really busy. No Hash Browns at breakfast is unforgivable but that is the only slight on an otherwise good stay

Very good all round, friendly helpful staff, great place to stay, recommended. Note the only slight thing was the bed at a 90 degree angle to the wall tv!
