Overall Ratings & Reviews Arkale Lodge

Greeted by the owner as we stepped through the front door, shown straight to our room which was immaculately clean then showed me were to park my car. Overall he was extremely helpful told us of a restaurant to go for an evening meal which turned out to be very good, breakfast was excellent. If I am passing that way again then I would definitely return.

Good value and nice breakfast. But car park not easy to find, lots of stairs and area not great

A really helpful host,ideal location just off the city centre and clean and comfortable room

Excellent location, very friendly and helpful staff. Fab breakfast. The room was clean, had everything we needed. Some areas are tired but you can see they are working hard to upgrade the tired areas. Thank you your kindness and hospitality.

We were very well looked after.

The staff were very friendly always their to greet and assist you, breakfast was amazing so many options, room was as described very good value for money

Our stay here was lovely. We travelled up for a family funeral and was wanting somewere qyiet and peaceful to rest afterwards. The host was very polite and friendly the bed was super comfy and the breakfast was 10 out of 10. We will definateky be using this place when we come to see family from now on

It was very good. Was called and handed the keys in agreed time and very well looked after No issues and peaceful.

I am a regular traveller to Glasgow and Preston and Manchester and living in a country area between the east and west coast of England I use Arkale lodge as a stopover for to rest and to catch my trains to my final destination the next day . Room 10 was spotless, great breakfast and a nice host as always. Comfortable nights sleep and plenty of rest during my stay and a nice Sunday night stay which was restful

I have stayed at this property many times before and it does not disappoint. I love attic rooms and the nice owner upgraded me to Room 6 on the top floor . If you need snacks there is an Asda across the road and next door a pub that does meals and craft beers . Excellent vegetarian breakfast which helps with a medical condition I have which was tasty. Good price and what’s not to like

I enjoyed our 1 night stay made all the better by Ishwar the host. Really nice man. Even got in the car to direct me to his car park after I got confused by directions. It's 2 mins away behind buildings over the road. About half a mile, flat walk to station and town centre but £1.80 on one of the many buses that stop outside. Fantastic breakfast with cereals if you wish, juice/tea and full English.

Lovely friendly staff, nice rooms, fabulous breakfast, exceptional value.

fantastic host with exceptional service, very good breakfast to set you up for the day too. Great value for money

Brilliant service from Ishwar and Sabita, true care and consideration for an octogenarian guest. Great breakfast menu - cooked to perfection. However, stairs no lift and parking circa 100m in private shared carpark. Not at the pub next door which is only available for pub dining.

Very friendly staff. Good breakfast. Good value

Parking a big issue for us. There is no onsite parking, okay no worries but the pub nextdoor to Arkale somehow issued us with TWO parking tickets for loading and unloading our bags. Enterprise rental company is charging us for this 70 pounds! Almost as much as the Arkdale cost. The owner and staff seem nice but this is unacceptable. Instructions about how to park must be given before arrival. I sent an email to Arkdale about tickets but no response….

The place was very clean the host was friendly

Great as usual

Warm welcome, Clean room, comfy bed n a full breakfast - what more could you ask for ? This is my regular room for business in Carlisle

Excellent overall
