close to parks and great food options for weekend strolls

staying here was wonderful as it’s just a few steps from Castle Park and within walking distance of Penrith Museum where I spent a lovely afternoon exploring. The area is rich in dining choices all around making it easy to find great meals nearby.

The afternoon tea experience stood out with a refreshing glass of prosecco and a unique selection of savoury bites, paired with a delightful cake stand loaded with sweets. A large bathroom provided comfort, and the overall atmosphere felt unhurried, ideal for a relaxing moment.

Upon entering, the hotel’s dimly lit frontage made it tricky to find, leading to some frustration after a long journey. Some fixtures were missing in the room, like photos, leaving hooks bare, and hot water took ages to come through. A generator outside my room caused noise throughout the night, and one occasion revealed an alarming lack of water pressure in the shower.

Cozy vibes and awesome food

Had a cozy stay in the big Deluxe King Room. The free standing bath was a real treat! Dinner and breakfast were super tasty with lots of options. The staff were really helpful, even helped us with luggage. Just wish the bar had been open when we got there, felt a bit bummed not to grab a drink after the drive.

I had a great stay. The room was spacious and clean. Breakfast featured local produce, and it was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful. Parking was convenient too. 😊

The breakfast was well worth waking up for—plenty of options and everything tasted fresh. The staff were super friendly and made our stay feel like home!

Dinner left much to be desired. my meal was overcooked, and the atmosphere was marred by rowdy guests nearby. Not ideal for a chill dining experience!

Spacious room, friendly staff, but struggled to find the off-site parking area.

we stayed for one night and it was even better than our last visit in penrith. the deluxe double room was spacious and the breakfast featured delicious local produce. the staff were super friendly and made us feel right at home.

the lighting in our room flickered at times.

we stayed for 1 night n loved the good sized room, breakfast was amazin, and the staff were super helpful. great free parking too, and the cocktails at the bar were lovely and cheap. overall a really nice vibe.

but the curtains in the room were a bit messed up n we thought there could be more space for our stuff. also, the noise from outside was a bit annoying.

the lounge was a real gem! we felt at home immediately upon arrival. the king room was fantastic, featuring a coffee machine that was such a treat. the bathroom was spacious and smelled so fresh, like it was newly done. also, the live music at the bar created a great atmosphere, and the food was out of this world. the friendly staff made everything even better.

strongly recommend

Absolutely loved my room, so stylish and comfy with a nice little skylight! Location was fab, right in the heart of things—perfect for a solo wanderer like me. the whole place felt super clean and welcoming.

Finding the car park was a bit of a comedy act in the dark! I nearly applied for a treasure hunt license.

i had a fantastic stay at the lounge hotel & bar. the breakfast was amazin, got plenty of choices from the menu beside the buffet. the staff were super friendly and welcoming, felt right at home. the room was clean and comfy, i slept like a baby even tho it was on the high street. overall, loved the vibe of the hotel and would recommend it to anyone.

the parking situation is a bit tricky, felt kind of dark and unlit. also, the noise level from the bar was a little much sometimes.

Comfortable stay with lively atmosphere

I had a great stay and was pleasantly surprised by the spacious and clean room. The breakfast featured local produce and was delicious, and the friendly staff truly made me feel at home. the noise from the nearby bar could occasionally be a bit much for my liking.

The room was spacious and spotless, with a cozy vibe. Dinner was amazing. halloumi kebabs were to die for! Plus, the shower had great pressure.

Just a top selection for a transient stop in Penrith with best value. The breakfast on the first morning was disappointing, with undercooked eggs and tasteless food. Consider asking for maintenance right away if you notice any issues in the room.
