Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

We spent 2 nights here to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and had a lovely time. The room was spacious, clean and warm ( always a plus on a cold day!), the young receptionist was helpful and friendly, breakfast and dinner were tasty and hot, basically I can't fault it! Very good value for money and would recommend to anyone looking for something a little bit special!

The gin experience was excellent. Blake was really engaging and the evening was a lot of fun. The gins were lovely - it was nice to try a few of their concoctions as well as making our own bottle (and we were so happy with how our bottle turned out!). The food platter was really delicious too, and plentiful! Would highly recommend. Knocked down to 4 out of 5 as the hotel rooms are really quite tired and need some TLC! Our room was so dark too - not enough lighting at all. Breakfast was okay but continental options were a bit lacking. We stayed as we don't live locally, but if you don't need the accommodation I'd recommend booking the gin experience without the hotel stay.

Attended for gin experience Met by Blake our host who was friendly, quickly shown to the distillery part of the hotel, great set up The evening commenced with a good measure of Whitehall original gin Blake was animated and informative in his discussion around the history of gin, clearly passionate about his job. He directed us well in how to make our bottle of gin Throughout the course of the evening we were provided with 2 further gins to try- both delicious. The added bonus of a sharing platter was well received We adjourned to the lounge area and whilst yes the decor is dated the fire was lit and cosy The young lady serving was attentive, friendly and our ordered drinks arrived swiftly. Would def recommend the gin experience £95 per couple - 3 drinks, a sharing platter and the opportunity between you to make your own gin is fabulous. Thank you for a lovely evening

Lovely hotel, very comfortable, staff very pleasant. The hotel staff were very accommodating and we were able to have a lovely early dinner which suited our arrangements. The lounge area is very comfortable, all beautifully decorated for Christmas and we will come again

I was due to visit Whitehall Hotel yesterday with friends for the Golden Oldies Festive Lunch. The meal was booked and a deposit paid 6 weeks ago. On Saturday my friend (who made the booking) received a very abrupt phone call saying that they’d had a booking for a larger party and no longer had room for us. There was no apology given and it was difficult to book a replacement Christmas lunch at such short notice.

We booked here as we thought we’d upgrade our stay in Darwen visiting family than our normal premier inn visits. Oh how we had wished we had never bothered. On arrival we were told the door is locked at 11pm and if you are late you can’t get back in. We are not ravers and want to stop out till the early hours but we didn’t want to be made to feel like we were teenagers on a curfew!! When asked if there was any way we could extend this time we were flatly told no, end of !! The rooms……ooooooh my god 😳 if you have ever heard of Bemish the rooms wouldn’t look out of place there ! They are so dated and in desperate need it a lick of paint ! No toiletries provided so if you want a bath then make sure you bring soap or body wash. Oh and the jacuzzi bath was broken so don’t expect bubbles Breakfast was a full English. Smoky bacon (which I can’t stand) and sausage which literally was licked in the pan (raw for my liking) Would we recommended? No Would we visit again ? Never
