I've already stayed in this company's other hotel in Lancaster with friends earlier in the year and so this was my first choice when working in Barrow recently. I had high expectations after my previous stay and wasn't disappointed. The standard of accommodation was very high, the staff were friendly and helpful and I felt very happy and comfortable throughout... more

Went for our works christmas 'do', around 30 of us in all. the soup was ok but bland, and the raspberry roulade dessert was edible. however, the vegetarian main course was a nut roast which was so thin it was crispy and also tasteless, a couple of roast potatoes each, tiny batons of carrot & swede and sprouts which were... more

I have dined here several times and it was on my recommendation that my family and repsective partners arrived on a cold windy evening mid week. The ambience of this place is spot on - roaring fire, mood lighting, stylish furniture. We ordered drinks and the waiter kindly offered to re arrange some tables as there were six of us... more

Stayed here with a large group of friends over 30 of us. Made very welcome by the staff, lovely rooms & excellent food. Good position for the town & visiting the lakes. On a busy junction & the car park is over the road but nobody messed with the 20 odd motorbikes parked there so no problem wth security. The... more

Our stay at the Dukes was really enjoyable, our room was spotless and extremely comfortable, the furniture and fittings were obviously well chosen and gave the room a sense of style. Throughout the hotel we were made to feel extremely welcome, all the staff were most helpful and friendly. The food was very good, I really enjoyed the Ham and... more

If you prefer the Travelodge on the inner ring road to the Duke of Edinburgh's you've got no style. If you're able to negotiate normal traffic lights and walk 30 yards, the car parking isn't a problem. If you don't mind taking 10 seconds as opposed to five to get to the top floor, the lift is great. The downstairs... more

Stayed here on business (not sure why else you would come to Barrow) and wsa very impressed. Obviously been a lot of time and money spent on the hotel recently and all rooms are of a high standard. Two sofas, wall mounted wide screen TV with freeview and a DVD player with a selection of DVD's. The bed was extremely... more
