8/10 Very good

Stayed before, brilliant staff and location. I'd have given it five stars overall if the matress had been nicer (like a gym mat) and the cheap metal bed creaked badly.
Paul, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Keswick is such a great town and so well located for hiking and playing in the Lakes. The YHA was lovely and so centrally located on the river by the park. Very well equipped with a great cafe too. My only complaint is that the bedroom doors shut noisily which means you wake with the early risers. All else was perfect

6/10 Good

For a busy hostel, the kitchen needs upgrades. It is a far cray from other howtels we stayed at in Scotland, especially.
Marzena, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

A very convenient location

Lovely place to stay for a couple of nights. Staff were very welcoming.Room was fine just a little warm so just left the widow open a little. Toilets & showers were clean. Kitchen was great. Breakfast was okay wouldve been better if the bacon / hash browns were warmer. Good for a hungry person as they give you more if you ask. Had very noisy neighbours but thats not the staffs fault just very thoughtless people that obviously thought they had the whole building to themselves.

A mixed-bag of a stay

A picturesque location, the YHA Keswick is situated near the town centre. Staff were helpful and knowledgeable about the local area. A large bar serving food and drink, in excess of the self-catering facilities which has everything you need. Showers are modern and clean, and the room was large and comfortable. Breakfast proved value for money. No staff are in the hostel after 10 and I had to call the night manager out to try and identify a noisy neighbour, to no avail. Sits uneasy with me that no staff are at this property all night.
Daniel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location, Very clean and tidy Staff was very helpful and answered all questions to best of their abilities as I wasn’t from the area so wanted to know about the area If your ever in Keswick then this is the place to stay, the room and facilities were top notch for the price paid, highly recommended for a warm welcome upon arrival
