Great location next to the Railway station, friendly and quick check in, the breakfast we paid £10 decent buffet breakfast everything you could of wanted and the food was hot.
There are some pubs close by so do expect some noise on a Friday and Saturday nights from people returning to the hotel but it's not their fault.
Overall excellent stay worth the money book in advance for cheaper rates !FromUS$67

The hotel is located in a small town with a very beautiful surrounding. It is very comfortable to walk around the hotel in the morning. The hotel rooms are also very beautiful and well-planned.

The first time I stayed in such a good hotel, because Edinburgh was not as fun as I imagined, so I stayed for a day and came to Carlisle. I didn’t expect to encounter such a home-like hotel. If you are a family of four coming to Europe unless you book two rooms, otherwise the room is small. You can’t imagine it. Here ~ to book a suite, like at home, the kitchen has everything! I went to buy ingredients that night to make it!FromUS$141

Guest house was lovely, but room I stayed in was small with separate toilet. If I went back would book a ensuite room. As other guests were using same toilet and shower which was slippery if someone else had used shower. Owners were lovely and helpful. Didn't have breakfast there but other guests staying there said it was lovely.£10 per person for traditional English breakfast or continental. Would definitely recommend it but stay in ensuite with your own toilet and showerFromUS$59
