Lake District Hotels unveil restyled Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa

Lake District Hotels group has shared the first images of the newly reimagined Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa which reopened March 8th following an extensive two-month refurbishment project.

Director of family-owned Lake District Hotels group, Dani Hope, said the idea of bringing the original hotel complex more in line with the luxury Falls Spa and spa suites, which were completed in 2018, was part of the ongoing investment and development of the business, and the completion of this venture marks a significant milestone in the hotel’s storied history.

Originally established in 1870, the Lodore Falls Hotel has long been valued as a high-quality establishment. Now, as the Graves family celebrate 20 years of ownership and multiple refurbishments, the hotel has undergone a remarkable transformation to bring both its interior and exterior into harmony with the contemporary design ethos of its acclaimed Falls Spa building, which debuted in 2018.

"We recognised the need to evolve and enhance the guest experience, aligning the entire hotel with the modern luxury and style exemplified by The Falls Spa" said Dani Hope, Director of Lake District Hotels. "With the completion of this refurbishment, we're excited to offer our guests an elevated level of comfort and sophistication that will satisfy the evolving tastes of the modern guest."

Over the course of two months, the Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa has been partly closed and undergone a comprehensive renovation, including a ground floor refurbishment and the installation of a new state-of-the-art kitchen.

The hotel's exterior has also been reimagined with the addition of a new outdoor terrace, resurfaced driveway, cedar cladding and a wheelchair-accessible ramp installed at the front, enhancing both aesthetics and functionality.

The Lodore Falls Hotel is also proud to unveil a completely new state-of-the-art kitchen, representing a £600K+ investment to elevate the culinary experience for guests. Equipped with modern appliances and technology, including a dedicated banqueting section for weddings and events, the upgraded facilities promise a seamless dining experience while fostering an enhanced work environment for its employees.

Despite the challenges posed by the refurbishment, The Falls Spa, 18 bedrooms and Mizu pan-Asian restaurant remained operational throughout, maintaining its reputation as a premier Lake District destination for indulgence and relaxation.

To mitigate any disruptions, the spa introduced a series of limited-edition spa days, drawing increased footfall to not just the award-winning spa facilities, but also Mizu; the hotel's acclaimed pan-Asian restaurant.

In addition to these enhancements, the Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa is poised to unveil a new dining experience with the imminent opening of ‘Falls Brasserie,' helmed by a talented new head chef.

The total investment in the project stands at £2.5 million, highlighting Lake District Hotels' dedication to maintaining the highest standards of excellence across its six properties.

“Looking ahead, Lake District Hotels remains steadfast in its commitment to ongoing investment and innovation, with plans to refurbish additional hotel bedrooms later this year” Dani Hope told us.

“Just last year, we invested over £1.5 million into refurbishing the Borrowdale Hotel located further down the valley, the Kings Arms Hotel in the centre of Keswick and developed a new outdoor terrace at the Inn on the Lake on Ullswater.”

“The feedback on those projects was tremendous, so we are excited to hear what guests have to say about the much-anticipated Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa overhaul.”
