There are few hotels in Carlisle that can boast such an enviable position. Just a short drive from the M6 and next to the main train station with trains every hour to London, Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow and Edinburgh, if you’re got business in the city, there’s no better place to stay and if you want a base to explore the breathtaking Lake District National Park, then you can easily combine city shopping with beautiful landscapes and exhilarating walks and water sports. Closer to the city, a visit to Hadrian’s Wall is a must and there’s racing, live events at the nearby Sands Centre and plenty of city events to enjoy and appreciate. We have parking on site too which few city centre hotels can offer.
With its royal history, splendid architecture and superbly central location, Hallmark Hotel Carlisle has a lot to shout about.But the heart of our business, as always, is to provide a wonderful uninterrupted night’s sleep. We take it very seriously.
Our 70 bedrooms reap the rewards of being part of a marvellous Victorian building. It means high ceilings and a wash of natural daylight through those big old windows. Recent refurbishment means they also boast more contemporary interiors from elegant wallpaper and harmonious artworks to dark wood furniture and bold splashes of colour.
But whether you’re in one of our family rooms, a single – a great economic choice for solo business travellers – or a more spacious executive room, all share certain features: fabulously comfortable beds with crisp linen and plump pillows, along with those 21st century essentials, superfast WiFi, flat screen TV and 24-hour room service.
We’ve no doubt Queen Victoria’s purpose-built suite was a little larger and a tad more luxurious but we think she’d happily have slept in our 21st century rooms. We really do.

We're fiercely proud of our food ethos at Hallmark Hotel Carlisle and equally so of our brasserie style restaurant. Its contemporary yet cosy interiors provide a stylish stage for a menu that combines modern British and European classics all carefully crafted using British local produce where possible.
MEETINGS & EVENTS
We believe that the key components for a successful event are a great location, flexible conference suites, professional support and no-hidden-extras package. We have that and more as one of Carlisle's largest hotel conference venues.

Our magnificent Victorian ballroom is hugely flexible to be themed to your individual style which is complimented by the hotel's stunning interior that has been lovingly furnished, making it an ideal setting to host your cherished wedding celebrations.
