Themed hotels in Windermere and the Lake District


Whether you are looking for chocolate themed hotels, Titanic themed hotels, sea spray themed hotels or Flintstones themed hotels you will find them all, plus a host of classy themed joints near Windermere and the Lake District.


Themed hotels became famous many years ago in Las Vegas, Disneyworld, and at a range of leisure parks around the UK, including Alton Towers. The original idea was to base the theme of the hotels around the attraction, and the more colourful, quirky and brash the rooms were, the more guests they attracted.


A themed hotel is the ideal solution for travellers who want something different from the tried and tested accommodation of a basic hotel, or who are looking for that Wow factor to impress their loved ones. Many themed hotels worldwide have received much acclaim in Orlando, Florida and Las Vegas, but can now be found much closer to home in Windermere and the Lake District.

Themed hotels, thankfully, have moved on since those early days, and visitors to Windermere and Bowness in the Lake District can find some of the best themed boutique hotels in the UK. One of the top themed hotels in the lakes is the Aphrodites, at Bowness-on-Windermere, which offers guests unique themed suites including: The Tarzan and Jane, The Parisien, The Cleopatra and The Flintstones. Classical and themed rooms with hot tubs, power showers and saunas combine with luxurious beds and contemporary, stylish furniture to make this one hell of a find. The Aphrodites is an organic hotel which relies strongly on locally-sourced food and adheres to an eco-policy to protect the local countryside and make the most of local organic produce.

Themed hotel breaks in the UK don´t come much better than this. The accommodation is fantastic and the stunning surroundings make for a wonderful weekend away.
