Alexander, United Kingdom

Location next to train station was a bonus. On same street as lots of pubs restaurants etc. Room was clean bed was comfortable and bedding lovely cotton. Great value for the money we paid.

Carol, United Kingdom

Close to Carlise Castle. Booked here for Rat Race The Wall. 69miles in 24 hours. The hotel room was lovely, there was a bath which was amazing for after the event I took part in. Close to restaurants and bars, close to shops. Parking hard to find but once worked out the one way system a nice area with free parking for guests.

Melissa, United Kingdom

The bed was comfortable and room clean. Tea and coffee facilities plus biscuits a nice touch and enjoyed

Anthony, Australia

Hotel a 2 minute walk from rail station and Carlisle city center is a few minuets away by foot. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Car parking available round back if you had a car. Settle railway line starts at Carlisle station on your door step. Would stay again.

Marshall, United Kingdom

The location was good as it was close o the train, bus station, restaurants and bars. The staff were friendly and helpful. It is an old hotel and has the potential to be a superior hotel with upgrading. It was clean and comfortable.

Sonja, Canada

All the food was excellant, we had an evening meal in the restaurant and it was all brilliant

Gillian, United Kingdom

It's a good place to stay for a night and there is plenty of parking.

Aynslie, Australia

It was an OK stay - OK value for money in a city centre. The place is tired but the rooms and beds were clean enough.

눉It was very dirty, old fashioned, the room stinks, the bathroom was extremely dirty and extremely moldy. We had cups for coffee in the room what were dirty from the previous guests, I asked new ones, what were also dirty, so we were drinking from plastic cups. Opposite side there were a few discos, we couldn't sleep from the loud music! Never ever!!
눇The bed was comfortable.

“Rat tace The Wall - Carlise Castle”
- • Solo traveler
- • Twin Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
눉The room I had was on the street front so was extremely loud. Especially on Friday evening so I only had 2 hours sleep before my big event. However Hotel said you can request a quite room so they give you a room at the back of the hotel away from the bars and nightlife.
눇Close to Carlise Castle. Booked here for Rat Race The Wall. 69miles in 24 hours. The hotel room was lovely, there was a bath which was amazing for after the event I took part in. Close to restaurants and bars, close to shops. Parking hard to find but once worked out the one way system a nice area with free parking for guests.

눉The area outside the room was extremely noisy with staff from a pizza shop talking, laughing shouting until after 4 am, had to change rooms at 4 am second roon had doves somewhere nesting ! Not the hotels fault I guess we made then aware of the situation. Toilets in each room including my daughters didn't flush well at all. I believe from staff the hotel is having an upgrade this year. It does need it as it is old fashioned. Actual glasses in the room would have been nice instead of plastic cups
눇The bed was comfortable and room clean. Tea and coffee facilities plus biscuits a nice touch and enjoyed

“Noisy and very tiring”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Double Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉Décor of room and especially the bathroom tired and in need of refurbishment. Ditto communal areas. Floorboards very creaky and noisy. Good central location but also VERY noisy at it is opposite a large pub and another bar (Friday night drinking) and shouting locals outside until early hours followed by street cleaning (?) machines which started around 0530! Reception staff a little offhand. Breakfast not available before 0800.
눇Large and spacious room

“Good value, relatively clean and comfortable.”

눉There was some street noise, but this was understandable considering the central location and close proximity to a lot of the pubs and bars of Carlisle (and we stayed on a Friday night!).
눇The bed was comfortable and clean, and the bathroom was also nice and clean. I thought the hotel room was pretty good value for the price. The hotel was very centrally located in the city centre. Free parking round the back of the property was a nice bonus.

눉Bathroom really needed a clean, the bedroom was dirty but not as bad. The hotel give out ear plugs to help with the noise, from outside (think this is worse on weekends),but the floor so really creek loudly( I know it's an old building but this is something basic maintanance could improve/reduce). The bathroom was tired and poorly repaired. There is no working air conditioning while we were there.
눇Bed comfortable, location in centre is great. You can park at the hotel which is usefull.
