What a lovely place to stay ❤️
Only a 5 minute walk from the train station very friendly
I stayed and took my dog the hotel staff were very helpful and friendly
My room was beautiful a massive bed which my dog enjoyed 😂
The breakfast was very nice
I can’t wait to go back and stay again
Thank you for having us x
Staff was brilliant however, the room needs to be re furniture, cleaned better and maybe better sound proofing the rooms. First floor corridors smells very bad.
Good location in Carlisle city centre. On Botchergate which features many pubs, including two Wetherspoons.

Nice clean toom helpful staff, good breakfast.
Only issue is we had to pay £5 a day parking, this appears to be new. I feel that if you are staying at their hhotel parking should be free
Comfortable quiet room.
Staff very friendly. Good English breakfast

We were getting an early train from Carlisle and wanted to stay close to the station the night before. This hotel is literally across the road. We had a double bed with extra single bed room for 3 of us at a total of £42.
Overall the hotel is a bit dated, but beds were comfy and it was handy for plenty of restaurants and bars the night before.
Breakfast started at 7am after we left, so I can't comment on it. But there was a Costa across the road which opens at 6am.
Staff on check in and check out we're lovely and friendly.
We had a great night's sleep and were ready for the journey the next day.
Would absolutely stay here again
Great value for what we paid.
Extremely convenient location. Comfortable stay at good price.

Whilst previous reviews are correct in that the hotel is "tired" that aside the room facilities were fine, the shower was good, a switch next to the bed to switch off the main light (often there isnt one), adequate lighting and adjustable heating, tea coffee and a kettle and a comfy bed with 2 decent pillows so all round very good value for its position in Carlisle. Defo use again if in area.
A good size bedroom, very warm, friendly welcome from the staff. Very helpful staff. Good breakfast and coffee. Can't stress how much I appreciated the staff being so helpful. Would definitely stay again.
