Great location; easy to find and convenient for public transport. Car park was spacious and quick to check in the car for the free parking. Really welcoming and helpful staff. Breakfast plentiful, tasty and well cooked (although hashbrowns a bit rubbery after sitting a while). Rooms were sizeable with plenty of sockets.
An independent, family-run hotel in an extended Victorian home, with many impressive original features. Close to Carlisle city center and the M6 motorway.

Dalston village is beautiful, but Carlisle Town, what we saw of it was uninspiring and unattractive.
Lots of road works , confusing road systems and busy. Not a bit like the other lake district towns.
Perhaps we hadn't seen the best of it to be fair.

Quite an underrated town.
Quite an underrated town. The castle and cathedral are very interesting, plenty of history to see. I like it most because you can quite easily travel to fantastic locations from all directions; Hadrian's wall & Newcastle to the East, Ribblehead & the Lake district to the South, the scenic Cumbrian coast to the West & the Historic Southern lowlands of Scotland to the North!

Carlisle is so full of history I love the buildings eg the Cathedral, the Castle, the Citadel which is going to transformed into a university campus. The little streets are very interesting could have spent more time exploring.

Convenience as a base to visit more of Cumbria.
Convenience as a base to visit more of Cumbria. If like me you don't drive its good to have a base with plenty of public transport to enable you to see a variety of places. Carlisle itself is easy to walk round, everything within walking distance.

I was only there for a quick one-night stop.
I was only there for a quick one-night stop. The weather was so bad in the evening that I did not venture far, but I found a decent fish-and-chip shop.
Got up early in the morning and went for a walk. I did like the city centre area, and especially the historic area.
We picked this hotel for its location as was attending something at the Sands centre so location was good, not far to city centre either.
Breakfast was pretty limited and we much prefer a pot of tea or coffee on our table not having to get it out of a flask, had to wait ages for the buffet to be replenished, and it came in dribs and drabs so by time one thing was filled another was empty, couldn't get everything at same time.
Everything was fabulous and above expectations. The host had added little extra touches in the room that made a difference and she went out of her way to ensure we had everything we needed. Only stayed one night but would definitely rebook and stay for longer next time we are in Carlisle. Breakfast was superb and cooked to order. Hotel is
Within easy walking distance of the city
Centre but I’m a quiet road
despite appearances of a down trodden hotel in need of renovation, the building was exceptionally clean, the bedroom was a good size, the bathroom was adequate in size terms, however, they had obviously had a leak from above at some point and you could see they hadn't painted over the damp patch. but apart from that everything else was fab, a great breakfast a very comfy bed and a warm room.
My go to place in Carlisle. I like to support local businesses rather than the chain hotels where possible. Always clean and never had any problems. Had an ensuite room which was good. Always good value. Close to city centre and on a quiet street with two pubs round the corner, but never had any external noise disturbance even with the windows open. Free WiFi in room.
The hotel is very close to the M6, A69 junction near Carlisle and is perfect for a stop over. The hotel is comfortable and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. We stayed on our way up for a holiday in Scotland and liked the hotel so much we did the same on our way back. Highly recommended.
The hotel was very well situated , many good restaurants close by. The train station a very easy walk if wanting to do the Settle Carlisle journey. Parking was very convenient at the back of our appartment, which was very clean and well equipped for any self catering one would want to do.
I love that the hotel is in the heart of carlisle, right opposite the train station (when they are running) round the corner from the bus station & a 2 minute walk away from the shops, lanes & indoor markets.
Hotel is in a small village but only a short drive from Carlisle, excellent value for the night if you don't mind staying out of the town and driving. Very friendly and helpful hotel owner.
Staff were super, facilities exceptional and both food and drink very good. Have been searching for a quality Hotel close to Carlisle for a while, pleased to say we have found somewhere.
The room was not dirty.
The location was convenient to getting to Carlisle centre and there was a large car park which could be used free of charge when staying at the hotel.
Location close to train station and all the great things to see in Carlisle - fun trip and nice place to stay. Shower was very nice as was the bed - what more can you ask for??
Clean, quiet, and conveniently located for Hadrians Wall or activities in and around Carlisle. Friendly staff and convenient breakfast or packed lunch options for walkers.
Breakfast was good, as was evening meal. Room was large spacious and very comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel was very clean throughout.
Cheap and cheerful. Staff were friendly. Room and hotel were clean. Bed was comfortable. Location was in the city centre. Like a standard travel lodge type hotel.
