Have been here many times.

Have been here many times. Every time is different as there are so many things to do. New place opened, I think, this year. It is called Bordo. It is in the square. Good for coffee, tea, cakes, meals, drinks. Amazing decor. If you are into cheap beer, football on big tv's and betting machines, forget it!!! Also welcome dogs. They have a water feeding station for them. Amazing!!!!! On the other hand....... if you are on to the cheap drink etc with still a lovely atmosphere the Caledonia Pub might be for you. Especially on a Tuesday as they have the happy drink day for certain beverages. Also saw two dogs in here. Lovely shop has also opened not too long ago. Selling cards, arty stuff, etc. Lovely to be in it. Mainly I thing geared at women. not for the football brigade who can be seen outside with the sour faces waiting for their wives, girlfriends, etc!!!!

The hotel was perfectly located in the heart of Carlisle, making it easy to explore the town centre. There was plenty to see, both in terms of history; castle, cathedral, and ancient Roman structures also the many social attractions.

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.

I came to the hotel with 7 friends for a hen night. The rooms worked out at £30pppp night, which was exceptional for what you got! You literally couldn't get a better location. When we were there we were looked after by the fabulous Donna, who couldn't have done anymore more for us. Infact myself and the hen stayed and extra night and she sorted us out with a room that had the most amazing views! If I am in Carlisle again I will always stay here! The breakfast, which was only £10pp was lovely, nice fresh food, juices and pastries.

Walking distance from train station and almost everywhere in the city. Carlisle is litterally small but the hotel is in perfect location. Beautifully decorated to the details, rooms are cozy and warm, clean and tidy. You will immediately feel home. Nice English breakfast and endless English tea. The host was also super helpful.
