Great location with free designated parking space. We were greeted by a lovely pleasant young lady, Sarah. Check-in was quick and simple and Sarah was very helpful and informative, even printing off a gluten free menu for the restaurant at the sister hotel. We had been upgraded(free) to a superior room with a view overlooking the river and bridge! The room was very large with extra king size very comfortable bed with bedside tables and power points each side, There was a desk/dressing table with mirror, and tea/coffee water and biscuits, plus a large armchair with coffee table by the huge window next to the river!
There were 2 double wardrobes, with auto lights inside, plenty of hangars and a safe, plus full length mirror. The bathroom had full length bath with double shower over with plenty of hot water, and a heated towel rail, plus toiletries and shaver point.
After unpacking, we went to the conservatory/ lounge for complimentary tea/coffee and scones(GF available). Our room was nice and warm and we slept very well.
The full english cooked breakfast (GF available)(pre order night before) was very good with 2 eggs, and brought to the table.My wife (who is Ceoliac) spoke to the chef and the waitress who both had a full understanding of the specific needs of GF preparation! There was a good selection of continental breakfast plus juice tea/coffee self service. The whole place was spotless throughout. Its in an ideal location for touring/walking. The hotel was quiet and peaceful and we would highly recommend it!!

Grasmere is full of lovely walks, you don't have to wander far to be in a super stunning surrounding. The walk around the lake is a pretty easy one to follow mainly flat and has a direct path so hard to get lost, but theres definitely opportunities to wander further a field, up into the hills, or over to the caves also from here. The lake is also a great place to paddle board or boat around, it's large enough and not too busy.
We absolutely loved Mathilde's Café at the Heaton Cooper Studio, the food was just delicious and such a pretty shop, great little seating spot outside providing blankets for al fresco dining. Sam Read Bookshop was also worth a look, there are a number of really lovely shops aside from all the main tourist hot spots in Grasmere. We also enjoyed a drink at Tweedies bar which had a lovely atmosphere and be a great place in the summer as it had a lovely beer garden setting to sit outside.

I found the food not to our taste , outragesly Expensive,
very un basic, could not understand why you have dispensed with basic meals,
Very little or no help with the introduction to the hotel facilities.
Very over priced for what was on offer.

It was beautifully situated ans very tastefully decorated.
It was beautifully situated ans very tastefully decorated. The only downside is there wasn't a shower in our room and I have mobility issues. Also no full length mirror. The bathrooms are rather small, we burnt ourselves on the radiator a few times using the toilet. Obviously that wouldn't be a problem in Summer. I would stay there again but would want a room with a shower which would also give more room to move around.
The food was really good we ate there each night. Bit confused with breakfast. One day we got two slices of bacon the next day one and the poached eggs we're hit and miss, but there was plenty buffet which was excellent.
All in all a lovely place to stay with lovely staff, places to visit all around and breathtaking views.

We walked up Loughrigg Fell loop from Hotel, wonderful walk ..lots of other options of walks too. Ate at The Grasmere Inn ..sister Hotel ..was very bust..we did book ..lovely cosy feel but wa disappointed with the food .it was average ...burger v dry ..service not best ...althoughvery friendly....New waiter though. Wished we had tried somewhere else ...busy not always the best option!
Friendly owners and the location just outside of Grasmere village is excellent. We arrived by bus but were able to walk to the property as we didn’t have too much luggage. I enjoyed the free continental breakfast, though it would be nice to add a hard-boiled egg for some protein. Our room was clean and peaceful with a view of the garden behind the house. After check-out I was able to leave my luggage at the property for a few hours.
A charming bed and breakfast! The rooms were well appointed and cosy, and the beds were very
comfortable. The hosts were very welcoming and accommodated our unexpected late arrival. The
breakfast was spectacular, served up fresh in a beautiful conservatory. The hotel is a short walk from the
Wordsworth Museum and cottage in Grasmere, which is well worth a visit. We would love to stay again
for longer.
Location was very nice with an excellent view from the hotel which we loved. Lovely hotel grounds to walk in which also lead to a well frequented walk to Easdale Tarn. The staff were helpful and friendly. The room was very well furnished and spacious with plenty of room to accomodate our dog too. Grasmere village was about half a mile drive or a nice walk.
The hotel was excellent, clean, quiet and a great location on the edge of Grasmere village. The rooms were very spacious, with the bed being probably the most comfortable hotel bed we have stayed in. Food, both breakfast and dinner was delicious and all the staff very attentive, would highly recommend a stay. Looking forward to our next visit already.
Welcoming hotel with really great staff. We parked and could easily walk around Grasmere to reach restaurants. The public areas were relaxing either in the garden, in the conservatory in the lounge or the cute little balcony overlooking the river.
The complimentary tea and coffee plus scones with jam and cream plus pastries was a real bonus.
All in all a very comfortable stay, the room was pricy but you expect that in the present climate however the staff were great and we managed to cancel a room on the day due to covid-19 with no extra charge, this was a joint effort between the hotel and booking.com so well done the both of you, much appreciated.
the food is still excellent despite the many other issues with the hotel. the staff did their best and work extremely hard to make you feel welcome and meet your needs. the location of the hotel is excellent and the car park is a bonus as many of the hotels and guest houses in Grasmere have limited parking.
My stay at the Daffodil Hotel was excellent. I have stayed at the hotel on a previous visit, and it exceeded my expectations on this last occasion. The restaurant was very well organized and the food was excellent. Will definitely at the daffodil on my next visit to the Lake District.
The Hotel is ideally positioned within Grasmere with pleasant gardens and views and ample parking.
The Hotel has a modern/comfortable feel throughout, the staff are pleasant and always help-full and the food is well presented and "delicious".
The location is perfect, right in the centre of Grasmere. The hotel is nice and cosy and modern. They left a little treat for our dog too. The staff were accommodating and the breakfast in the morning was delish.
The Wordsworth is a lovely hotel in the heart of Grasmere and I have stayed here several times previously. The rooms have been upgraded since I last stayed and are very well appointed and comfortable.

We enjoyed the location of the property in Grasmere, the comfort of the room, the meals in the dining room and the friendliness of the staff. It was an amazing trip for us to the Lakes District.
Great location right in the heart of Grasmere. Lovely cooked breakfast (chose Eggs Benedict) over the road at The Inn at Grasmere. So nice to use the pool and relaxation area in the hotel too.
