We stayed two nights at Aphrodite's Lodge to celebrate our wedding aniversary and paid £150 per night in the Cleopatra room. The room and the hall leading to the room smelt musty. The carpets looked old and the safa looked as though it had old stains on it!! The room was big with a lovely large spa bath and the bed was very comfortable. The outdoor pool was closed and the indoor pool is located at another hotel with some facility closed. The staff werent that helpful or informative about swimming arrangements.
The breakfast wasnt great and cost £4 extra each to have it delivered to the room and an extra £5 for the full cooked (again, not great).
Basically it was far too overpriced for what is, on close inspection, quite a shabby room in parts. You can get far better for a lot less money. I also didnt see that the hotel had an official ratings/stars. Wonder why?.....

The attitude of the manager stinks, customer service skills, what customer service skills! no help whatsoever! The room was ok, I have seen better. I will never visit Aphrodite's Lodge, Bowness-on-Windermere again.
What a waste of money and a total let down.
All I can advise is not to bother and save your money for somewhere nice and romantic!- Read Guest's review (59 words)

We spent only one night in the aphrodites lodge hotel. It was an anniversary surprise for my husband. We stayed in Robin Hood room. It was very romantic, cute place, but I would not come back to it again. Even its nice and clean, hot tube is great.. its well overpriced. I paid 140 pound for one night. I dont think is worth more than 60 pounds. Its far away from luxury as advertised. In the morning I didnt feel well so my husband was trying to bring me cup of coffe and tost and he was asked to pa ...- Read Guest's review (219 words)

Wasn't a great 2 days as planned...we went with high expectations after being recommended by a friend of ours who had previously stayed. The first night at Aphrodite's Lodge was average although there are no wine glasses in the room and you cant have any unless you buy a drink which has never happened in any other hotel we've stayed. The 2nd night the lights went out and as we were in a attic room this was a worry as even the emergency light tripped! we reported this straight away and were offer ...- Read ste m's review (209 words)

Paid £500 in full for Aphrodites Lodge, Bownees on Windermere, before we went there (never again). Arrived a couple of hours after booking in time and the lodge was freezing - expected it to be warm as it was snowing at the time. Told heating was broken, was not given the option of another room and even though we needed to be out quite quick it was too cold to get ready and people were coming in and out of our room. Finally after approx 2 hours (we were frozen) they turned up with plug i ...- Read ijkelly's review (368 words)

The location in Windermere I found beautiful, it was nicely seculded and away from the main road. You had your own privacy which ever room.
Lovely location, a bit pricey but worth the stay..good laugh and nice restaurants near by. Defiently advise any couple to go there.- Read Guest's review (67 words)

We think its a bit over priced at around £90 each per night (August) nice for something special, we would like to go more often but for price needs to be 25% less. Friendly staff nothing too much trouble, shown us a vacant room to look at. Doesn't serve evening meals but snacks are available and well presented. Lots a places to eat in bowness. We didnt use leisure facilities as these were at another hotel. The evening menu they show is at their other hotel in Windermere.

Not too bad. Could do with lowering prices to reflect standard of hotel. The brochure promised more than Aphrodites delivered in my opinion.
Wouldn't be in a rush to return.- Read MrsWatford Wilson's review (89 words)

This hotel is nice and clean but if you are going away for a relaxing break, don't choose this hotel!
If you are given a room at the back of the hotel there is a fountain outside the room, that is switched on at 8.30 in the morning & is that loud it woke us up!
It is also not switched off until gone 11 and later than that if someone asks to see the dancing fountain.
We arrived at the hotel on the 20/6/08, and had to check out a day earlier than booked because at 11.30pm the guests in the room ...- Read Guest's review (211 words)

Me and my husband went to Windermere for our anniversary and stayed at Aphrodites Boutique Hotel. There weren't many rooms left as we booked last minute and we only wanted one night which most hotels won't do. We managed to get the snow queen room which was lovely, it had a very comfortable bed with nice plump pillows, nice quality furniture and a modern bathroom with a spa bath.
Everything was clean and the staff were friendly. There was a heated outdoor pool in a good sized typical English ga ...- Read paulkinsella's review (136 words)

Rooms are not anything special, looks good in the brochure, but has no storage to put clothes away and walls are paper thin. Definitely not worth the money, has a lot of hidden extras like its an extra £5 for a cooked breakfast, which I think is very cheeky seen as though the price is expensive to begin with. Rubbish and expensive. Would never stay there again and would not recommend- Read Guest's review (71 words and 1 comment)

Lovely room and very relaxing location. Reception staff very friendly and helpful. Stayed in Oman Bedouin suite and loved the hot tub. Breakfast was very disappointing, with a £5 supplement for full English. Judging by the full teapots sent back at the end of breakfast proved that no one was impressed by the organic tea.1.2 miles into Bowness and very dark road at night if on foot. Overall a lovely place to stay, but did hear others complain about breakfast, especially when it isn't a chea ...- Read Anne Kidd's review (92 words)

We stayed in the American Log Cabin at Aphrodite's Lodge, the first night where I proposed to my now Fiance . The room was the perfect setting - log burning fire, big rocking chairs, candles, champagne and a CD player. Not to mention the deep hot tub, sauna and shower - perfect!
The 2nd night we stayed in the Tarzan and Jane room, expertly decorated. And arguably the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in which was aided by a big Velux window looking out to the stars.
I really can't beli ...- Read Brucey09's review (124 words)

The week end was supposed to be a celebration and turned into an ordeal, two sleepless nights due to fire alarm problems, no hot water to the bath for two days, shower door broken for two days, staff did not respond to request to rectify the situation. The spa bath was located one step from the car park in view of all and the heated outdoor pool was closed. If management had been available we would have checked out on the third day. We have complained since our visit and received no acknowledgme ...- Read ian maughan's review (144 words)

We stayed in the Tudor room with a 4 poster bed, gorgeous bedding and Molton Brown toiletries with gorgeous views overlooking the pool and coloured water fountain. We absolutely loved the big spa bath, you can easily not leave your room here. We didn't pick a room with a hot tub outside as it was a cold weekend, we were glad because they were overlooked by those on the first floor anyway.
It's a bit of a walk into Bowness but it's lovely, we got a taxi home at night because it was pitch blac ...- Read LilJellyfish's review (161 words)

Aphrodite's Lodge is in a Lovely location, but a bit of a walk from town centre. Stayed in Italian Suite. Very nicely decorated. Nice big spa bath in bathroom, and lovely views over the gardens and outdoor pool.
Had new TV and DVD player in room.
Staff were all really friendly.- Read jazz12's review (63 words)
