We didn’t sleep all Night because of the windows and doors rattling all night. Have emailed the hotel twice since our stay on 13/12/25 and still no response. So unprofessional. We were booked into breakfast at 10am and when er went to breakfast there was us 3 and another party of 4. There were no fried eggs, scrambled eggs, beans and bread for toast. Unacceptable

We stay in this hotel more than 3 times a year. But unfortunately this was not very pleasant, we had a 3 night stay and no one looked in our room once. We had to ask at reception for toilet rolls and tea/coffee. We also had someone downstairs smoking in their room and the smell was coming up the vents, I know this is not the fault of the hotel. but on our last day we got up at 0600 and left the hotel as he smell was intolerable. We will be back later in the new year and hope we dont have the same experiences.

Whilst previous reviews are correct in that the hotel is "tired" that aside the room facilities were fine, the shower was good, a switch next to the bed to switch off the main light (often there isnt one), adequate lighting and adjustable heating, tea coffee and a kettle and a comfy bed with 2 decent pillows so all round very good value for its position in Carlisle. Defo use again if in area.
