Booked the room for my mum and she loved her stay. Location is amazing, staff were so attentive and helpful, lounge area is a lovely place to meet friends and spend time, especially with its festive decoration. My mum loved the leisure facilities, and excellent opening hours...... everything was of a really good quality. Finally, as a visitor, it felt really warm, welcoming and friendly.

Finding their car park on arrival was not straight forward, but at reception, Kelly offered to come in the car with us, which was so helpful, had free use of the pool. Was a wet day, so stayed in for dinner which was excellent.

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.

A great compact city, good for a weekend break but also great as a base to explore this beautiful area. Train journeys along the Carlisle /Settle route, the Cumbrian coast route, over into Scotland and to Leeds Newcastle etc all easy.

The location of this budget hotel couldn't be any better for access to Carlisle town centre when arriving by train- or by car, as the hotel has a small car park for residents use at a fair overnight rate. The hotel is a refurbished older property and is not without some well used some charm. Breakfast was great, staff were helpful and to the point. I was very happy with my stay at the price paid. For those visiting the racecourse the taxi rank is just outside the hotel and £9 each way.

We always stay at the Crown & Mitre when visiting Carlisle. The staff are very helpful and welcoming, the room was recently refurbished, the wifi is good, the bed is comfy, the hot water plentiful, and the full English Breakfast really sets you up for a day of exploring Cumbria. The hotel is right on the Carlisle square and offers free parking which is perfect.
