Premier Inn, Kirkoswald hotels

"Great stay for the price. The room was clean, amenities basic but they suit just fine. Strong enough Wi-Fi for me to take meetings, and check in/out were very easy. Free parking for all guests behind the hotel was perfect for what I needed. It’s in city centre and across from a club, but with earplugs I slept very well. Nearby shops, restaurants, and a great stay for exploring the region."

"Convenient parking. A number of useful places to eat nearby. Breakfast was freshly cooked but missed some essentials (fried egg, black pudding, fried bread....). Staff were friendly and helpful."

"Nice room helpful staff easy parking quiet location apart from fire alarm going off at ten o’clock not the hotel’s fault gave us a fright"

"It was close to the city centre"

"Great hotel, lovely staff and would recommend"

"Appleby Castle is a special destination, steeped in history that you can experience first hand. Staff care deeply about the castle and we thoroughly enjoyed the piano playing during the meal and the history talk after. Having read some of the other reviews, we can’t say we experienced any of the negatives and thought Peter, Sally (and chef!) did a great job it being just them running the castle."

"The staff were very friendly, welcoming and efficient. The food was very good. The hotel is very comfortable, well furnished and very quiet being a little remote. No outside noise and very little noise inside the hotel even with coach parties staying over. Looking forward to my next visit."

"The staff are excellent, the grounds are magical and the buildings are awe inspiring and stately. Well worth staying here. Superb food."

"A welcoming and helpful check-in at this stunning Victorian hotel right next to the train station and shops. The rooms were spotlessly clean and cosy with comfy beds, full of amenities. The staff were friendly. Thanks again! (also for storing my mountain bike) :)"
