Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Appleby Manor Hotel offers a relaxing experience, with guests often enjoying the spacious and clean rooms, some featuring well-equipped kitchens and conservatory areas. The spa, particularly the jacuzzi, is a highlight for many visitors. While the hotel generally provides great value, a few guests have felt that some bistro dishes were overpriced; however, breakfast at the hotel often includes gorgeous views of the surrounding countryside, enhancing the overall experience, and the location allows for walks into Appleby town with its river.

slow service bland sausages
I found the bar service slow one evening. it seemed they were understaffed or perhaps the staff were just inattentive. also, the cooked breakfast options seemed limited. I'd expect a bit MORE variety at a place LIKE this. the sausages were okay but somewhat bland, and the bacon was overcooked. it was edible, yet certainly not nice.

insufficient wardrobe poor soundproofing
The stay had some letdowns, especially considering the price. Our room was a Standard Double Room, but it felt a bit cramped. The wardrobe space proved insufficient for two people over several days. We struggled to store our belongings comfortably. the soundproofing wasn't great! Noise from nearby rooms disrupted sleep a couple of nights.
