Dumfries, Scotland hotel rooms at the Independent

"Really good stay and friendly staff."

"This is a really, really lovely hotel. It is a little bit of a step back in time, but in a lovely way. A really grand building that has been well kept whilst it is still possible to imagine how grand it would have appeared to people when first built. It made me smile whenever I was walking around it. I was there on business, but Carlisle seems like a very interesting place ... I will be back to both Carlisle and the Crown and Mitre!"

"Staff were very friendly and accommodating throughout our stay. The leisure facilities are fabulous and our children loved it. The roaring log fire was our favourite spot to sit and play a game or two."

"Enjoyable stay and ticked the required boxes "

"Great location The hotel need to sort parking out it was great when could use sports club ,it would be only reason I would not use again "

"While there were renovations being undertaken they in no way impeded our stay. It was a lovely two night visit and would stay again."

"Stay here often, nice hotel, friendly staff, good food."

"Bed was so comfy we slept like babies. Food was excellent, I’d highly recommend the hotel. "
