County Hotel

County Hotel

8/10 Good
"The hotel is easy to find and parking is not a problem. The staff are very welcoming and registration was simple and efficient. The room I had was massive, and very comfortable. Warm . The only drawback was the noise from the street outside all night long. However, the hotel does prove earplugs which I could have used. The breakfasts were first class, it's very rare to get a hot breakfast from a buffet style restaurant. But they have mastered it, The rooms themselves were warm, clean and comfortable, but a little tired. With patches of carpet a but bare... But then , the price of the room is definitely budget and still very well worth it. I hope to be back."

10/10 Excellent
"Excellent value for money. Brilliant location, super parking. I have stayed here previously when under the old management. New owners are refurbishing and have only been open a few weeks. Like all new things, there's ongoing works which is great to see. It didn't impinge on my stay whatsoever and I would DEFINITELY stay here again. Amazingly friendly and helpful staff are the stand out customer experience for me."

ibis Carlisle – City Centre

8/10 Good
"My first Ibis, probably not the last. It was clean and comfortable and the hot breakfast option was good. Centrally located so it was probably noisy on the side facing Botchergate but they do provide complementary earplugs, my room overlooked a private car park so the earplugs were not required but were used at the Blues Festival."

"Fantastically located hotel. Right in the centre. M and s food store next door. Staff were charming and friendly. I’d certainly stay there again. Parking is a bit tight (say 20 spaces) and the hotel was well attended. That said, there was a cheap car park within a few feet."
