My stay at the Crown Hotel Wetheral was a bit of a mixed bag. While I appreciated the friendly service from the staff and found my room comfortable, the check-in process was chaotic and left me a bit frustrated. The breakfast setup also seemed disorganized, which detracted from the overall experience.

The staff were incredibly warm and helpful throughout my stay (the night porter was a highlight, bringing a friendly vibe post-celebration). However, the reception management during check-in could have been better organized.

The hotel's setting is lovely, nestled in a picturesque village with nice views (proximity to the River Eden was a definite plus) and a direct train link to Carlisle. The peaceful gardens added to the pleasant atmosphere.
Dining

I enjoyed dinner in the conservatory, where the food was surprisingly excellent and beautifully presented, but breakfast was less enjoyable due to chaos and delays in replenishing food items at the buffet.

The leisure facilities looked inviting (though I didn't use them), and the overall amenities were adequate, including free parking onsite. However, the lack of clear communication during busy hours was a downside.

During my stay at the Crown Hotel, I encountered some real highs and lows. The location near scenic walking trails is a definite plus, and I appreciated that many staff members were friendly and attentive. However, the room had issues like a broken toilet seat and a lingering draft from the balcony door. Additionally, my dining experiences left much to be desired, especially with consistently cold meals. Overall, while the hotel has potential, it fell short of expectations for a four-star hotel.
