I usually visit Carlisle every year, plenty of coffee shops and restaurants and pubs also mixture of names shops and individual shops. Trains station is handy to hotels and Carlisle castle and Cathedral. Christmas stalls near to Xmas. Pleasant place for a day or two to visit. People are very friendly.

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.

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.

Everything you expect from an Ibis. Clean, great value, decent facilities, great breakfasts! Room layout the same as all other Ibis hotels I've stayed in. Staff really helpful and friendly and the hotel is in a fantastic location. Carlisle is a really nice quaint town with lots of nice restaurants. The hotel is a 1 min walk from the train station, a 2 min walk from the town centre, and a 10 min walk to Carlisle United's football stadium.

Whilst the hotel wasn't in the centre of Carlisle it was easy to find by way of a direct bus from Carlisle city centre, with a stop just outside. Check in was straight forward and our room was spacious, complete with tea/coffee, dresser and a comfy bed. The bar was old school with reasonable prices and the bar staff was helpful and welcoming. The breakfast was worthwhile, with a very nice full english being served on the morning.

The staff were brilliant and were great when I had to amend my dates last minute due to flight delays and rebookings. The hotel is inviting, and the room, although on the small side, is comfortable and ideal for one person. The car park is very convenient, and the hotel location allows for getting around Carlisle with ease.
