Guest Ratings & Reviews
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel. The rooms were very elegant and accommodated all of our needs and those of our friends. The meal was excellent, but the kitchenette in the living room let the hotel down slightly. The service was exceptional, especially with accommodating our bikes, and I even had a special request catered to promptly. The location was so handy, being close to everything you might need, but it was a bit pricey given the limited availability on Saturday night. The dining experience was very good overall, with freshly cooked and tasty dishes. The facilities were great, offering everything we needed during our stay.
The hotel is conveniently located in the city center with easy access to shops, restaurants, and bars. The rooms, although spacious and well-designed, could feel warm and claustrophobic due to the lack of windows and uncomfortable bedding. The service was attentive and friendly, but with some minor issues. The dining experience offered good quality food but was limited in options. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
The hotel offers a comfortable stay with quality room amenities but lacks dining variety. The impeccable service and convenient location make up for it though.
My stay at the hotel was amazing. The rooms are very modern and spacious, offering everything you need. The staff couldn't have been more helpful, making my experience comfortable and enjoyable. However, the dining experience left something to be desired with limited options available.
The hotel is perfectly situated in the center of town, offering beautifully equipped and comfortable rooms ideal for a night in Carlisle. The service was very helpful and friendly, but there was a minor issue with clean cutlery. Its central location makes it convenient for exploring the city's attractions. The dining experience, although with limited options, was of respectable quality. Overall, a great choice with excellent value for money.
The hotel was luxurious and spotlessly clean, providing a perfect stay with beautiful decor and everything I needed. However, the lack of worktop space in the kitchen area affected my experience, and noise disrupted my sleep.
