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.

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.

Pedestrian Plaza under construction - when finished will be an asset. Variety of shops, some in covered markets - weather protection for travellers. Visited Cathedral and Cafe - both worthwhile . Overnight stay on route to Penrith for Family History research - Library staff very helpful.

A nice little B&B in Carlisle which is a 10 min walk from the station and more homely and pleasant than the other options in town. The hotel was very accommodating for my unexpected late arrival and also allowed me to check out late to suit my work arrangements. Breakfast was cooked to order and, again, the owner was very accommodating for dietary requirements. The room was very small but with everything required and comfortable.

Rosalind house was a great place to stay, would definitely recommend and would visit again. The room was nicely decorated, clean and spacious. Julie was a lovely host. Very friendly and welcoming and the breakfast was great. A very nice spread set out ready for me and then a great cooked breakfast to order. I'd normally stay in anonymous hotels in Carlisle, but this was much better.

We always stay at the Crown & Mitre when visiting Carlisle. The staff are very helpful and welcoming, the room was recently refurbished, the wifi is good, the bed is comfy, the hot water plentiful, and the full English Breakfast really sets you up for a day of exploring Cumbria. The hotel is right on the Carlisle square and offers free parking which is perfect.

A lovely stay with just some small niggles: 1) No plug points next to the bed 2) No Black Pudding at breakfast for the entire stay and the bacon was under cooked and fried eggs overcooked These things didn't detract from what was another wmgreat stay and as always this will be my go to hotel in Carlisle.
