Great staff. Wonderful facilities. But I the middle of nowhere. Difficult to access if walking Hadrian’s Wall.
The Crown and Miter Hotel is located in the center of Carlisle city center, with shops and local historic attraction such as Carlisle Cathedral and Castle just 2 minutes' walk from the hotel.

We had high hopes when checking in but those were dashed when we got sent to the back parking lot entrance.
An independent, family-run hotel in an extended Victorian home, with many impressive original features. Close to Carlisle city center and the M6 motorway.
Ideally located in the historic capital of Cumbria, the ibis Carlisle is just 215 yards from Carlisle Citadel Train Station.

Great location; easy to find and convenient for public transport. Car park was spacious and quick to check in the car for the free parking. Really welcoming and helpful staff. Breakfast plentiful, tasty and well cooked (although hashbrowns a bit rubbery after sitting a while). Rooms were sizeable with plenty of sockets.
Dating from around 1659, the String of Horses is a traditional coaching inn is set in the country village of Faugh, 8 miles from Carlisle and junction 43 of the M6 motorway.

We liked everything about the String of Horses. Our room with a King bed was large, bed was comfortable and bathroom a good size and remodeled. Bar had great atmosphere with a nice fire. Dinner was excellent.

Quite an underrated town. The castle and cathedral are very interesting, plenty of history to see. I like it most because you can quite easily travel to fantastic locations from all directions; Hadrian's wall & Newcastle to the East, Ribblehead & the Lake district to the South, the scenic Cumbrian coast to the West & the Historic Southern lowlands of Scotland to the North!

Carlisle is so full of history I love the buildings eg the Cathedral, the Castle, the Citadel which is going to transformed into a university campus. The little streets are very interesting could have spent more time exploring.

Convenience as a base to visit more of Cumbria. If like me you don't drive its good to have a base with plenty of public transport to enable you to see a variety of places. Carlisle itself is easy to walk round, everything within walking distance.

I was only there for a quick one-night stop. The weather was so bad in the evening that I did not venture far, but I found a decent fish-and-chip shop.
Got up early in the morning and went for a walk. I did like the city centre area, and especially the historic area.

The city centre is ok, it does have some lovely old pubs away from the two Wetherspoons, however you have to go looking for them down some of the side street (try around the church in the city centre and behind the shops for a few). Some nice restaurants apparently but we didn't try them. Outside of the centre nice parks.
The hotel and room were really clean, the staff were friendly, and the leisure complex was a lovely addition. The location was perfect for us visiting family in Carlisle. We will stay again on our next visit.
We were offered to move rooms when we mentioned the tap and radiator were broken, but as it was a minor inconvenience we declined, however, having found the room to be noisy overnight, we asked to move in the morning and were given a different room on the next floor up, which, although smaller, was much quieter for us.
This was our second stay here as we returned from Scotland. We expressed our dismay at the room we had on the first visit as I have health problems and getting our very heavy case to our room somewhere down the labyrinth at the back of the hotel was a mission of stairwells. This second stay was so much better, and thanks to the receptionist who ensured that we had a better room. We appreciate that the hotel is undergoing renovations and this room proved that it is a job well done.
Perfectly located for central Carlisle. Be aware it is a townhouse so do t expect huge gardens and total silence. It is literally a two minute walk to the Lanes Shopping Centre and central district.
The property is immaculate. With very high quality bathroom products (better than most hotels).
Good Wi-Fi for working on, tea/coffee/cafetière with real coffee in the room. Perfect wake up.
Great breakfast also.
Very helpful staff and nice hotel. Bed very comfy and hotel is in a nice location. The breakfast is very good with all you need to eat and drink in the morning. Great chef and very helpful. I would highly recommend this place to all looking to stay in Carlisle for the night. I would definitely return to this hotel to all, not bad value for money considering the time of year.All good very happy. 👍
My go to place in Carlisle. I like to support local businesses rather than the chain hotels where possible. Always clean and never had any problems. Had an ensuite room which was good. Always good value. Close to city centre and on a quiet street with two pubs round the corner, but never had any external noise disturbance even with the windows open. Free WiFi in room.
The hosts were wonderful and attentive. The view is exceptional. There is sufficient privacy and space from other huts. The hot tub is definitely a great bonus. We came by taxi from Carlisle, and it wasn't a problem finding the property, so that too is an option if not traveling by your own car.
The lady who did our check-in was just fantastic and really nice to talk. The breakfast was excellent and well cooked. The room was clean like a 5-star hotel and the bed was just really soft and cozy. I think it was the best stay I've ever had in the UK.
There's a buffet Chinese restaurant,a Witherspoon's,a bowling alley with other activities,and a cinema, all within 30 metres of
the hotel..
The room was basic , but all you need,bed was comfortable, shower spacious,,breakfast plentiful,.
the hotel was in a great location. the rooms were terrific, and the staff were the friendliest and caring of all the places we stayed at during our 2-week trip. the restaurant had wonderful food and we'd do it all over again and again.
This hotel provided excellent, inexpensive accommodation in an undistinctive part of Carlisle. It was better value than posh hotels in the City centre. The breakfast was overwhelming and superbly cooked. There is ample car parking.
good location away from busy area easy walk to places and restaurants, nice bar and restaurant down stairs. car park right next to hotel. newly remodeled modern apartments so is clean and new open space room, great place to stay
Highly recommend the Cumbria Park Hotel. Location was very close to the city centre where we could explore Carlisle Castle and museums. The staff where fantastic especially Jean who looked after us at breakfast time!
This is a large old hotel in downtown Carlisle close to cathedral and the castle. It is fancy and it's time but it definitely has aged. The staff were quite nice in the hotel does have a bar and restaurant.
The B&B was really comfortable and in a great location, within easy reach of the city centre, a variety of restaurants, bars and venues. The hotel owner was lovely and the breakfasts were great.
Large room, comfortable bed. Located at the heart of Carlisle directly opposite the train station with all local amenities within easy walking distance. Free car parking to rear of the hotel.
Lovely hotel in the heart of Carlisle. Perfect for shopping or socialising in the city centre. Easy to access from the train station. Rooms were warm & comfortable with good facilities
