Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Station Inn B&B is often praised for its excellent value, particularly given its proximity to Kendal centre. Many guests have enjoyed the delicious food, with the evening meals being a recurring highlight, and some specifically recommending the steak and ale pie or the seafood pie dish. The spacious rooms are appreciated, and some have noted the availability of a beer garden and play park, making it suitable for families; though a few guests have, on occasion, experienced issues with orders at dinner. Guests can also explore the area by climbing the helm (hill) in front of the hotel, for example.

poor soundproofingnoisy room
the soundproofing was not good. i could hear every conversation from the room above me. this noise made it very difficult to sleep after driving a long distance. i think the hotel needs to seriously consider soundproofing the rooms.

The room was huge and had a comfy king size bed, though it could use a fresh coat of paint. i noticed the outdoor play area and seating. It looked great for families.
i observed that the breakfast area floor was not cleaned well from the previous night. it wasn't a major issue, just something i noticed.

Really good Stay, Spacious Room and Delicious Food

quiet blockdecorated roomking-size bedcomfortable chair
I appreciated the bedroom block being separate from the pub. This ensured it remained quiet. The room itself was quite large and well-decorated. I found many provisions like tea, coffee, and a refillable water bottle. Two comfortable chairs and a huge king-size bed suited me well.
