Staff were so welcoming and helpful, really made the stay. Excellent location and whilst some aspects in the corridor to my were a little tired the room itself was clean and very comfortable. The food was good and breakfast was plentiful and delicious. I spoke to several returning guests. I'll definitely be back.

Friendly staff, great food and a fantastic location for Catbells. Unfortunately, our first night was disappointing, with a blocked toilet, dirty surfaces and significant noise from other guests until around 3am. Our second night was much better, so hopefully this was just an isolated experience.

A lovely hotel in an ideal location for visiting the Lake District. Within walking distance of several walks and Derwent Water jetty from where you can catch the ferry to points around the lake and to Keswick.
Sofia and the staff made us feel very welcome.
The breakfast was good, with plenty of selection.
The restaurant also had good food.

Staff were super helpful and friendly.
Lovely bar and dinner menu with lots of seating inside and out. Great views of the lake.
Lots of parking for guests and good walking path straight out of the hotel.

I only stayed for one night and therefore didn't have time to explore the surroundings fully. However, the room was clean, spacious and comfortable, the breakfast had everyyhing and more you could expect . The location is excellent and I would certainly consider using it as a base for any furture planned visits in and around the Keswick area.

Lovely staff, very friendly. Good room, comfy and clean. Breakfast quite good.
There was an EV charger which we wanted to use however there was no sign so non EV cars blocked the space. A clear sign would be good!
Lovely setting with great views . Bus stops every half hour a 5 minute walk from the hotel.

We had a wonderful time at the Mary Mount. Our room was lovely, well furnished and clean. The staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble. It was the first time we had used the Keswick launch which we boarded just a minutes walk from the hotel. We used this all day and didn't have to drive the car anywhere. Breakfast and evening meal were excellent. We will definitely be back.

Quite a small room which didnt bother us and the view was to die for. It was a very hot weekend whichade the room stifling through the night even with the windows open. A small fan would resolve this on the odd occasion we get nice weather. The location, food and views were amazing and the staff chatty and helpful. We will definitely revisit

Great location on the Lake, pity due to low levels the ferry from keswick wasn't stopping at the dock as it is right at the bottom of hotel garden. We stayed in room 17 (dog friendly), great view from window room clean, bit dated, this room has external bathroom which is opposite room door and was only for use of our room which was fine. Breakfast fantastic, huge choice of hot & cold food. Evening menu not the best choices and food was just okay. All staff friendly and helpful. Highly recommend visiting the surprise view which is right above the hotel and has a great view of derwentwater.

Great Hotel with Private Free Parking near to lovely walks and close to Keswick town. Breakfast Great choice and Evening meal lovely too. Stayed in the Lodge which was Private house with two bedrooms, huge lounge with three settees. Huge shower with products. Coffee/tea in each bedroom and in the hall. Small fridge in lounge. Great for friends to join you.

We really enjoyed our stay at Mary Mount Hotel. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the room was spacious enough for us and our dog.
The hotel is in a wonderful location. The views of the mountains and Derwentwater are brilliant, and there is a footpath directly behind the hotel, which was perfect for walking our dog every morning. Keswick town centre is also less than a 10-minute drive away.
The restaurant and bar were excellent and were one of the highlights of our stay.
There were a few areas that could be improved. The room felt a little dated, the shower pressure was quite weak, and our room was not serviced even though we hung the housekeeping tag on the door.
Overall, we were very satisfied with our stay. The friendly staff, beautiful scenery, dog-friendly surroundings and great location made it a very enjoyable trip, and we would be happy to stay again.

I have been staying here for decades mainly because of its location. It is a truly beautiful property but unfortunately it is in desperate need of a refurbishment. Paint off the walls , worn carpets and generally in need of some TLC. On the positive side at least the people are still really accommodating , professional and friendly. Hopefully the property itself will get an update.

Beautiful view from the bedroom at the front of the hotel, and the location is gorgeous.
The actual hotel would do with a bit of modernising- it’s not “old” as such, just showing some signs of wear in places- a lick of paint and a new carpet in the dining area would go a long way. However, it does still look nice.
The shower is not powerful and the toilet flushes for a really long time for the pump to refill. In room toiletries are small and basic.
The cleaning is not great- main areas are fine, but cobwebs on the lamp in the dining area are not good.
But……. This hotel more than makes up for this in location, staff and food.
The staff are truly lovely-friendly warm and helpful - but not false with it.
The steak pie, the chips, the sandwiches and the lamp rump are all excellent. Plenty of variety and breakfast and quality was good.
The walk around Derwent water was gorgeous and this hotel is close to Keswick- via foot bus or car. We much preferred the quiet of the hotel to Keswick which was very busy.

The Mary Mount is a lovely hotel in a beautiful location on Derwentwater.
The staff at the hotel are brilliant and the customer service is excellent.
The food at the hotel is plentiful tasty and well presented.
The hotel is looking a little tired in places and could benefit from a lick of paint and some slight modernisation.
That being said the rooms are warm clean and comfortable and we would definitely return
