BEWARE - You may think you have booked the 4* Washington Central Hotel, only to find upon confirmation that you have actually booked into the Sleepwell Inn Annexe! Cleverly misleading advertising by the hotel can leave a sour taste! The Sleepwell Inn is across the road from the Washington Central and has absolutely no facilities within the building. So when your key card refuses to let you back into the building every time you exit then across the road you have to go - 4 times in 24 hours we made the trip. The night Porter even came over with us on one occasion stating that it was a regular thing that had been reported to Management but not fixed! The 'refurbished' rooms were definitely not 4* standard (even though the little sign on the outside clearly shows 4 stars - again, cleverly misleading advertising) they were at best hostel standard. After staying for 1 night I went over and asked the young girl on reception to cancel and refund the cost of the 2 rooms we had booked for 2 nights, stating that we would stay that night and check out the following morning! She didn't ask why (I assume she knew) and said the cancellation had been done! The next morning I went to check out and make sure that the cancellation and refund had been applied - this time I spoke to somebody that looked a little more important - I was told that that was the first time they had ever had a problem with the key card access (a clear lie as at one point there were a queue of people waiting at reception with the same issue) and was made to feel that it was my fault not theirs! I was also asked why I had not requested to be moved - again trying to put the blame onto me! Although in the next breath she informed me that they were fully booked, so even if the Night Porter had the authority to move us (which I am guessing would be way above his pay grade) he wouldn't have been able!

The sauna, traditional is oh so amazing. It made a dull wet day very enjoyable and we felt so relaxed afterwards.

A beautiful property on the outskirts of Workington (although it is on the outskirts you are still walking distance from the centre and shops) . Stylish, spacious and clean with everything you need under one roof. The hosts were amazing! So kind, friendly and accommodating. It was so good we decided to book another night whilst staying in the Lake District!!!

We stayed for 3 nights over the bank holiday, great breakfasts, had an evening meal which was also great and reasonably priced. Had flowers arranged to be in the room as a surprise. Lovely big room with great views. Staff very helpful and positive. Great location for coastal walk or local train for further afield. We walked to St Bees and got the train back.

The location was good for our needs, breakfast was acceptable. The bed was good and we slept well.
Fine town with easy access to beautiful lake district.

Has all you need in close proximity. Lots of dodgy driving in town. Stay frosty!
If you're exploring the lakes this is great access and after adventure comforts.

Workington was better than expected Plenty of shops and parking Flowers were blooming and very colourful on a lot of the streets It was a good place for us to stay as a base, we travelled around the coast line up to Gretna where a wedding was going on.
We went around the Lake district and found St Bees a lovely place to watch surfers , swimming and peddle boarding and lots of children enjoying the pools after the sea had gone out
I am of the older generation so like to people watch very relaxing

It's one of the start points for the C2C cycle or walk routes - the others are at Whitehaven or St Bees. Both those are much nicer than Workington.
I ate in the Henry Bessemer - a Wetherspoon's pub, which was good value WYSIWYG. Cheaper there than the awful hotel Waverley by several quid - and drinks much better value too.

A busy little town near the Solway Coast.
A busy little town near the Solway Coast. Tricky one way system until you become used to it. The town has a number of takeaway establishments but would benefit from more eateries. A good leisure centre and nice walks in this area.

Fairly quiet place not too much to do in workington itself.
Fairly quiet place not too much to do in workington itself. Ideal to use as base. We used wetherspoons quite alot for eating and drinking it's about a 5 minute walk away just past the bus station.
We were very impressed with the service and had a great stay. We were a bit disappointed with our first room and asked to upgrade to a room in the associated hotel, Washington Central, and this request was granted. As we were on our honeymoon, the front desk even offered us a huge discount on the upgrade to make our stay more special - it was an above and beyond gesture that we appreciated so much. Great service and nice amenities (pool, sauna, hot tub).
It is only 28 minutes from Keswick so it is a great choice for a budget vacation in Lake District. I had Room 1 which was on the ground floor close to the entrance (but further from bathroom). Spacious, neat room. Host says bring own toiletries but all you need is shower gel, the rest including towels and toilet paper was available. Location in Workington town is good, quiet, always had parking.
A beautiful property on the outskirts of Workington (although it is on the outskirts you are still walking distance from the centre and shops) . Stylish, spacious and clean with everything you need under one roof. The hosts were amazing! So kind, friendly and accommodating. It was so good we decided to book another night whilst staying in the Lake District!!!
Room is good value with all the expected facilities. Really nice bonus that for £10 extra you can use the facilities for the hotel across the road, including sauna, large swimming pool, jacuzzi and gym.
Breakfast was good, fairly priced and well worth it. Location is right in the town if you want to go to any bars or restaurants.
The location was good and the breakfast was to die for(exceptional). The hostess Sue was at the door ready to greet us which was lovely. Beautiful accommodation and surrounding gardens. I would definitely recommend these cottages and I would also stay there again when visiting Workington. Thank you Sue.
Very helpful staff, rather a cosy home than a BB, quiet yet in the centre of city. Bars, Restaurants shops in walking distance. Comfortable bed, very clean shower and all facilities a good hotel could offer for a good price. I enjoyed the nice vegetarian Breakfast, fruits, etc ... and the good coffee.
Great location for exploring the north west coast and the lakes.
Lots of bus routes head north, south or east towards the lakes. The coastal railway allied us to visit Gretna to the north. We also went to Whitehaven and St Bees.
Even took in a football game at Workington.
Lovely little cottage in a really nice quiet location of Workington. Super comfortable bed with nice soft bedding. Really clean. Everything you need for home to home environment. The little touches made it extra special. Will definitely stay again.
Cozy large room with bathroom, really comfortable bed, very clean place, great location, delicious breakfast and friendly service. We're very pleased with our stay in this hotel. Highly recommend it! 😊
A nice hotel for a 1 night stay in Workington.
Staff were friendly.
Very good self service breakfast in the morning.
Close to town centre and a short drive from harbour and the sea.
Stayed for 2 nights. I ate in the bar area the first night and the food was great. Breakfast was also nice with lots of options. The room was very clean and comfortable too.
