    With the great location right in the centre of town comes a huge problem The noise at night from the surrounding bars is almost deafening, you are not getting any sleep until they empty and go home at 01.30 or 02.30 on the night the clocks change... After that all is well Please please get double glazed windows on street side rooms in place of old sash windows

    Great location, huge room, very comfortable bed

    Nothing really bad but for 10 quid it would have been nice to have had a persoally cooked breakfast.

    This hotel was in the centre of town so a brilliant location for anybody visiting for tourist reasons. The building itself was full of character with a lot of windy corridors in which I got a little bit lost. I had a single room which was not very big but adequate for a single guy and it was dog friendly which is a big plus for me. The room had a bath which is unusual and very welcome. The downstairs rooms had the potential to be very good . The dining room was in two parts and I was in the dog friendly partner which was the better one and full of character with an interesting fireplace and ceilings . I paid for breakfast but it wasn't brilliant with a buffet style setup with scrambled eggs, sausages, etc. Already prepared . I was vegetarian and they could prepare a vegetarian option but I would have to wait so I didn't . It was not a bad breakfast but if it was not so early in the morning I would have gone outside and found a cafe. There is a grand piano in in the ground floor and I think this hotel has the potential to be an interesting venue in its own right? And I would imagine the owners. I'll probably looking to improve it as they go along. All in all a good experience and I could not complain about the value for money, the dog friendliness and the bath that was available, which I think would be very hard to find another locations for the price.

    Rooms at the front of the hotel are right across from the pubs/nightclubs. Music and shouting till the early hours followed by street cleaning machines and bottle bin emptying trucks. Almost zero sleep but that staff were exceptionally helpful and moved us to the rear of the hotel for the second night

    Close to the station and town centre. Breakfast was very nice

    Only downside was the noise from the bars. That was my own fault for not checking location as that road is known for party life on a Friday and Saturday, imagine mid week it would be a lot quieter. Hotel staff gave earplugs so slept fine.

    Clean spacious rooms.

    Used to stay here on my annual trip to Carlisle but it had started to look and feel a bit “tired” so I ventured elsewhere for a couple of years. Was tempted back again this year because of the price, but it’s still a bit tired. If you have any accessibility issues you’ll have difficulty negotiating the various levels in what’s a bit of a rabbit warren - the lift won’t get you everywhere.

    Location and price.
