The staff were very attentive to my needs and extremely courteous- a credit to the hotel. Decor and facilities reminded me of days gone by- especially the breakfast room and service. A grand establishment in the heart of town- still fit for a President, I’d say! ( Apparently Woodrow Wilson stayed there after WW1!) Pool and spa were a bonus.

Quiet city consideringit is a University City. Lots if shopping areas but like many high streets many empty premises. The indoor covered market is virtually non exisitant which is a shame. Parking is reaonable and the Cathedral is well worth visiting.

The older area of the city around the cathedral and castle is the most interesting and easy to explore on foot. The area includes the Tullie museum. The town centre shopping area is a disappointment with only one good coffee place.

I knew nothing of Carlisle prior to my visit and we didn't have long to look round but my main feeling was to wonder why nobody's mentioned how lovely it is. It has some stunning historical buildings to see and the city had a nice vibe. It's also really conveniently located for the Lake District and has rail links directly to it. My husband and I have promised each other a longer trip back.

A great compact city, good for a weekend break but also great as a base to explore this beautiful area. Train journeys along the Carlisle /Settle route, the Cumbrian coast route, over into Scotland and to Leeds Newcastle etc all easy.

Excellent location close to the railway station. Room was clean, bed was comfortable. Tea/coffee making facilities were welcome after a day out. Staff on the reception desk and the lady in the breakfast room were all friendly and welcoming. Hotel is a little dated in places but it was clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay again if I visited Carlisle.

Good sized bedroom and bathroom. Room was at back of hotel which was good as Carlisle city centre can be very noisy on a Saturday night. Car park handy and charge of £12 acceptable . Lift to bedroom floors. Hotel bang in city centre and adjacent to railway station. Lots of hostelries in the area . Good breakfast

An amazing hotel in a quiet countryside location moments away from Carlisle. The staff were very friendly and you could just please yourself in the hotel and in the grounds. Primarily a wedding venue but when there's nothing on its just wonderful for an overnight stop off from the M6 to or from Scotland.
