In the heart of the city centre, next to Carlisle Railway Station, this elegant Victorian hotel was fully refurbished in 2009 and now offers free Wi-Fi, free parking and boutique-style rooms.
Formerly The Lakes Court Hotel, the Hallmark Hotel Carlisle completed a £1 million renovation in March 2009. Newly refurbished executive and standard rooms are available and all of the stylish and luxurious rooms have 32-inch flat-screen TVs with Freeview digital channels.
The attractive and modern lounge bar is a great place to relax with a drink, and delicious bar snacks are available daily. Early evening tapas is served in the bar between 17:00 and 19:00. The Brasserie is open every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner, offering great food and wine.
With a superb central location, the hotel is only 2 miles (3.2 km) from the M6 motorway, making it a great base from which to explore the Borders and the beautiful English Lake District.
