The fire door near room door kept banging all night people next to us banging their doors. And outside humming late at night with what sounded like extractor fans
‘Free car parking’ was taken up by 7 maintenance vans parked all over the place.
Room was exceptionally hot and the shower was scalding hot.
TV also kept coming randomly during the middle of the night.
Phone didn’t work to call reception. Cleaners shouting in the hall from 7.30am.
Cleaners didn’t make up bed just emptied bin.
Ceiling covered in cracks and cobwebs and rain dripping on me whilst I checked in at reception

parking is not obvious/ easy to find - we needed to be talked in by an excellent patient receptionist. very small grassy corner of the car park behind some skips was the only place our dog wanted to 'go'. breakfast was OK, thankfully freshly cooked rather than under heaters. the hotel must have been very grand back in the day, city centre location. hence very loud youths until well after midnight, and this was a midweek stay. after years of going past Carlisle on the M6, I finally found out it's west rather than east of the motorway! probably wouldn't return.
We loved that the hotel had parking. The bed was very comfortable and it was surprisingly quiet considering it's location. Bryony on reception was very helpful when we arrived. We will stay again when I visit relatives in the area.
It's an old building so yes you guessed it some things in there may well be old!
Consider the Premier Inn and other hotels in the area were around double the price then this place offered good value for money and is very central and convenient, free parking too which is a bonus.
As nice hotel just outside the railway station and on the A6 main road into Carlisle it was easy to find. Instructions for finding the car park would help.
Great spot in the city, my wife and I only stayed the night but it was a good area to rest in. Room was a bit dusty so heads up if you have any allergies. Noise was to be in expected in that area, the breakfast was great and made the stay definitely worth while for the price.
I regulary stay at the County hotel when passing through Carlisle as it is located in the city centre, offers free parking and the staff could not be more helpful, Bryony on reception is a credit to the hotel team
Would recomend the County hotel to any traveller

Happy to stay again
Very central for train station and easy access to city centre.
Booked a triple room for myself and 2 friends to visit Cumbria Pride. The hotel was the cheapest available which initially concerned me however all concerns were gone after arriving. Ample car parking available, friendly staff and room was comfortable and clean. My only comment is that the bathroom could benefit from a little refurb to be more appeasing to guests expectations and room didn't get replenished during our stay
Would definitely book here if visiting again
The County Hotel is very conveniently positioned for the railway station and has its own car park which is free to guests. It is surrounded by eating places from fish and chips to a very good Chinese buffet restaurant. There is plenty of nightlife too. Our room was a large family room for 3 adults at the rear of the hotel so was relatively quiet and comfortable. There is a lift to all 3 floors but some corridors and even rooms have steps in them so make enquiries about access if you have mobility issues. We have stayed here before and would be happy to stay here again in the future.
