Allington,Thank you for choosing The Carlton Hotel. We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay here and hope to see you again soon!Sincerely, The Carlton Hotel Team

The Carlton Hotel is an excellent place to stay. It’s very conveniently located with free parking and dining options within walking distance. There are also places of interest in town. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious, and despite our room being next to the street, it was well insulated that outside and adjacent room sounds didn’t bother us. The only thing we wish for is a microwave and a bigger refrigerator. We will definitely book again!
