Carlisle Station Hotel, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western

Court SquareCA1 1QY

The elegant Carlisle Station, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western is superbly located in the city’s historic Court Square, just steps from the railway station next door.

This striking Victorian building is brought up to date with its contemporary interiors and mood lighting, making it one of the most sought-after places to stay in Cumbria’s only city. If you’re arriving by car, we offer onsite parking – something of a rarity for a city centre hotel in Carlisle. The hotel is an ideal base if you want to combine a city break with a trip to the Lake District to explore its beautiful landscapes and enjoy exhilarating walks and water sports. You can even hop across the border to Scotland, taking in two countries in one day, while a visit to Hadrian’s Wall is not to be missed. In the city itself, uncover the turbulent past of the 900-year-old Carlisle Castle, catch a show at The Sands Centre or enjoy a flutter on the horses at Carlisle Racecourse. Our Victorian Ballroom is a stunning space to hold a conference, exhibition, celebration or event and, for those staying overnight, we’ve tried to make our accommodation as comfortable as possible. With 70 bedrooms all offering superfast Wi-Fi, a flat-screen TV and 24-hour room service, both business and leisure will be a pleasure when you spend time with us.
