I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were clean and comfortable with good cupboard space, the hotel's upper floor location accessible only via stairs may be challenging for those with mobility issues. Parking can also be a hassle. On the upside, the room offers a view of the Castle, but it was quite dated and in need of refurbishment, with worn-out furniture and signs of dampness near the window.

The hotel's location was excellent, near the train station and within walking distance to Penrith Castle, Morrison's, and Go Outdoors. Despite some drawbacks, the proximity to various amenities and attractions was a definite plus.

The dining experience was a mix; while the food was tasty and value for money, it could have been served hotter. The location made it convenient to explore nearby shops and pubs.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, while offering a great view of the castle, were too hot as the windows couldn't be opened, and the noise from the bar and busy roads made it hard to have quiet nights. On the bright side, the price was really good.
Rooms

The rooms offer a view of the castle, but not being able to open the windows was uncomfortable. Additionally, being above the bar and next to busy roads did not allow for restful nights. The price, however, was excellent.

The location of the hotel couldn't be better. Being right by Penrith Castle and close to various amenities like restaurants, shops, and the train station made it ideal for exploring the town. However, the noise from the nearby busy roads could be a downside.

The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms are small yet cozy with essential amenities but could be cleaner. The temperature control varies, with rooms being as cold as outside while the dining area is overly heated. On the flip side, the location is excellent for various activities and amenities nearby.
