“Skiddaw Hotel occupies a prime spot on Keswick's main square, which is ideal for exploring the town and accessing Derwentwater. I note the Brasserie 31 gets consistent praise, as do the family-friendly amenities and dog-friendly accommodations, but the bar area can get overcrowded and there seem to be issues with room ventilation that need addressing. The Greta Suite event space is a definite plus for private gatherings.”
