Old but clean
This is a great location and in its time probably was a grand hotel. The rooms are dated but clean and have good bedding. It’s basic in an excellent location for a night out or shopping. Wish we’d known there was free parking at the back before we paid £10 in a car park up the road. This is tired but clean accommodation in an excellent location for the town

Glad to leave
It was a very old hotel , tired and grubby. Lot of noise from the room above until 2am. Lot ofr noise from a neighbouring business until early hours of the morning. Far too hot on the upper floors .... not a pleasant stay at all.

A Comfy County Hotel
County Hotel Carlisle was a spur of the moment decision for my wife and I with our adult daughter - we were extremely surprised when we arrived as it was a magnificent old building.
Our room slept 3 with large king and a single bed - very spacious and comfortable room - bathroom also very spacious and good shower pressure and hot water.
TV available and despite being very old and recently painted the room was very clean and fresh
As it on the Main Street and we were on the first floor it was a bit noisy but believe it or not - they even provided earplugs for your use !!!
Our hearty English breakfast was included all for the price of around $190 AUD !!! Good hotel for a short stay
Highly recommend it for comfort and great value for money 💰

Shower needs attention
I was in room 105 the shower did not work properly.the shower head sprayed water all over the floor and bathroom it would not stay in place,so the bathroom ended up like a swimming pool and very very slippery,informed hotel reception they said they would inform housekeeping,when I got back to our room housekeeping had been and dried the floor and left dry towels but the shower head had not been fixed so we couldn’t use the shower and it was a very hot day and night disappointed.
