Rooms

All of the Keswick's 74 rooms are tastefully decorated, each offering a private en suite bathroom with bath and shower, along with a range of convenient amenities (see individual room details for a complete list). Most with views of the stunning Lakeland landscape. Upgraded bedrooms are available for those guests wanting that little bit extra from their stay. Spacious station rooms have king-size beds, a welcome tray and complimentary dressing gowns. Junior Suites have a separate seating, with panoramic views of our gardens and the surrounding hills. All rooms are accessible by lift, however, there may be a number of steps to negotiate along the corridors.

Hotel details

Purpose built as a railway hotel in 1865, the Keswick Hotel opened its doors for the first time in 1869, swiftly gaining a reputation as the leading hotel of the Lake District. Many famous visitors have crossed its threshold over the years, the most memorable being Queen Elizabeth II in October 1956. Improved road links and the decline of local mining meant the railway ceased to function in 1972. However, the hotel purchased the old buildings and platform and continued to develop into the popular Lake District venue it is now. Whether a business traveller, mountain hiker, keen rambler or a lakes enthusiast, the Keswick Hotel is proud to welcome all. The comfortable lounge with open fire and well stocked bar is the ideal meeting place after a day spent exploring the delights Keswick has to offer. The Lonsdale Restaurant provides hearty Cumbrian breakfast and sumptuous 3-course table d'hôte evening dinner to tantalise your tastebuds using, wherever possible, locally sourced produce. Set in 4 acres of tended gardens and walkways, surrounded by the wonderful Lakeland fells, play a game of croquet or relax in the haven of tranquility on offer when you stay at The Keswick Country House Hotel.

Food & Beverages

Dining at the Keswick will be a memorable experience. The Lonsdale restaurant is open daily for Cumbrian breakfast and table d'hôte dinner. Our brigade of talented chefs delight in preparing daily menus with the emphasis on simple yet flavoursome dishes, using local produce wherever possible.
