"Great location and so convenient for local restaurants and shops. Parking offside took a minute or two and was really easy. Our room was very large and perfect for my disabled Mum.

Ambleside Salutation Hotel & Spa

Ambleside Salutation Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"A wonderful stay yet again at the salutation hotel. The location of the hotel makes it an ideal stay to visit Ambleside. Perfect to park the car when you arrive and no need to use it again for your stay. Having a spa within the hotel is a bonus and the standard of cleanliness throughout the hotel is exceptional. We stayed in a room at the front of the hotel , which yes there is a little street noise , but nothing you wouldn’t expect staying in a town centre , and certainly didn’t keep you awake at night - in fact it was probably one of the highlights of our room - people watching below and the beautiful fells in the distance. Breakfast is a real treat , excellent selection of hot and cold food and drinks , there is everything you could possibly want for breakfast. Nothing is too much trouble for the staff - everyone greats you with a smile and are most helpful. Having visited the Lake District from childhood staying at campsites, lodges, cottages and b&b’s , I can honestly say this is my favourite place to stay. Thank you to the team at The Salutation Hotel , hopefully we will return soon."

Frequently asked questions

Which area of Howtown is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For budget-conscious travellers seeking cheap hotels in Howtown, the areas around the city centre and the outskirts offer the best value without compromising too much on convenience. These locations often feature a higher concentration of guesthouses, smaller independent hotels, and chain accommodations that cater to a more modest budget.Solo travellers will find the city centre, particularly areas slightly removed from the main tourist thoroughfares, a good option. You'll be within walking distance of many attractions, reducing transport costs, and there are often independent cafes and eateries offering affordable meals. Look for places a few streets back from the waterfront for better deals.For couples, considering the outskirts, such as the neighbourhoods leading towards the fells, can provide a more tranquil stay at a lower price point. While slightly further out, these areas often have regular bus services connecting to the city centre.
How much does a budget hotel in Howtown cost?
Budget hotel prices in Howtown vary, but you can find a great deal from £81 on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates. Typically, off-peak and mid-week stays are cheaper. Stretch your budget further by looking for hotels with free breakfast, free parking or free airport shuttles. Sort your search results by "Price: low to high" to see our lowest rates.
When is the most affordable time to visit Howtown?
The most affordable time to visit Howtown is generally during the off-peak season, which includes late autumn (November) and early spring (March to April), outside of school holidays. During these months, you'll find lower prices on accommodation and potentially cheaper travel fares, as the summer crowds have dispersed and the festive period hasn't yet begun or has just ended.For solo travellers, visiting in these shoulder seasons offers a more tranquil experience, allowing you to enjoy the stunning natural beauty of the Lake District without the hustle and bustle. Many guesthouses and B&Bs in and around Howtown offer better rates, and you'll often find special deals as they look to fill rooms during quieter periods. You can still enjoy invigorating walks along Ullswater or explore the fells, often with clearer views and fewer people on the trails.Couples looking for a romantic getaway will also benefit from these off-peak times. You can enjoy cosy evenings by the fire in a traditional pub without needing to book weeks in advance, and many local eateries might offer set menus or early bird discounts. The scenery is particularly dramatic in late autumn, with vibrant foliage, and in early spring, as the landscape awakens.

Take a leisurely walk along the shoreline, find a peaceful spot to read, or try your hand at sketching the picturesque scenery. The public footpaths winding through the surrounding countryside offer endless opportunities for quiet contemplation and appreciation of nature.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
