Booked the room for my mum and she loved her stay.

    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.

    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.

    It was a perfect location as we were going to an event in Carlisle Cathederal. The Hotel was very clean, Staff were great, Room was great maybe little dated but adequate, Windows very old & poor considering the main walkway outside was getting renewed so you couldn't open windows for dust with them grinding the pavers, but the Bathroom was new, Beds comfy.

    Agree with many of the reviews for "Carlisle Station Hotel" - great staff, excellent location, breakfast was nice and within easy walking distance of 'decent' restaurants or takeaways. In respect of the room it was warm; with a comfortable bed and I had no problem figuring out how things worked, such as, the door, the shower, kettle, TV etc
