What guests think
At The Duke of Edinburgh Hotel & Bar, travellers highlight friendly, welcoming staff, clean characterful interiors, comfortable rooms, and enjoyable food and drinks, plus a convenient location near the station with free parking available across the road.
Rooms are generally spacious and quiet with large bathrooms, though some note hard mattresses, dated decor in places, weak showers, and limited control over heating or air conditioning. Service is mostly praised, but a few guests experienced slow restaurant service or unattended reception at times. The central setting is handy for shops, bars and events, though the surrounding area can feel run down and occasional road noise is mentioned. A solid choice for travellers seeking a reliable, characterful base in Barrow.

I have booked a stay in the above hotel and paid full amount through online for one night (04/05/2025-check in date and 05/05/2025-checkout date). I with family (wife and 1.5 years old) reached at hotel around 6 pm and a man in reception ( ? Barry, Manager not sure the name, the other staff says his name in his absence) welcomed me. He asked my debit card for identification purpose, I was shocked but he insisted saying that said it’s for confirmation purpose . I gave my card, he told no money will be deducted. He also said that it may show a pending transaction in my account, but no money will be deducted. But later I found out that it’s not pending transaction, he took £ 90.47 from my account. At the same night I filed a police compliant and luckily I got my money back after two days. But I emotionally stressed and worried about that money the entire two days. Second thing about the stay was that room was not maintained enough to give a proper rating to this hotel. Lift was also not working and I was struggled to go upstairs with my luggage and my 1.5 years old baby.

Well run hotel in the older style. Good size of room and bathroom and in a clean state. If staying on the upper 3/F the lift tends to be a bit slow. The restaurant and bar were excellent with a great atmosphere.

If I had read my emails before arrival I would’ve found out about the parking being over the road but even so, staff at reception gave me all the information I needed and allocated a permit for us. Everywhere was so clean and neat and the reception staff were so helpful and engaging, giving us some local information and also discussing driving routes etc. room was beautiful- lovely deep bath, iron and board, hairdryer all good quality. Only issue we had was the heating, we couldn’t turn it down but it wasn’t too much of a hassle to us. I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone looking. Close to main centre, shopping and entertainment- we did use the bar but not the restaurant and we found it lively and clean and again lovely staff

Return stay at the DoE. Service is spot on, too few hotels recognise the significance of personalised service... The DoE pays attentions to the small and big things that make a real difference. Bar/restaurant food is very good at dinner and breakfast. Great location near the train station and complimentary parking.

We've stayed at the Hotel several times over the years, always provide a great service with clean, modern rooms that are both warm and comfortable with everything you need for a short or long stay. Priced very fairly and the choice of drinks at the bar is excellent, breakfast is amazing and you certainly won't go hungry. Looking forward to my return in the new year.

Lovely hotel with lots of original features. Rooms were spotless, good decorative standard and the beds are so comfortable. Air conditioning and heating you can control yourself. DH Lawrence stayed there once. Good location, free parking, near to shops, but not too close. They do the best bourbon Ive ever tasted and lots of different drinks like English vodka. Only thing Id rate less than 5 stars was the night porter who I just found a bit difficult, not that helpful and a little odd, but that is only my opinion!

I’m a regular visitor to the town while I’m helping our son and his partner modernise a house which they’ve recently bought thst. This is a gem of a hotel which I will be staying at whenever I’m visiting from now on. Check in was very friendly and efficient. The room was lovely. Spotlessly clean and well equipped. Tea and coffee making facilities were generously stocked. The bathroom was spotless and was a good size with a nice powerful shower. The restaurant has a good variety of reasonably priced meals and an extensive selection of beers to help you unwind after a hard day. Breakfast was the same quality as everything else at the hotel and very reasonably priced. I’m looking forward to staying again when I visit again in a couple of weeks.

The room was spacious quiet & comfortable what let it down was "Big Brother" controlling the aircon. Last night and this morning it was stuck on an uncomfortable 25 degrees C and to change you had to contact reception!! with no phone in the room. Also the ironing biard was worn and the iron was average. I would stay somewhere else next time. Why not let guests control their room own temp !!!

The room is clean and tidy with everything you need. Little treats like oat cookies provided are really good as sometimes when you arrived after a long drive with really adverse weather, these little treats helps a lot. All the staff are really helpful , cheerful and efficient. The restaurant downstairs is a must go. The air-condition inside the room can not be adjusted and there is no hair dryer available inside the room as well.

I have booked a stay in the above hotel and paid full amount through online for one night (04/05/2025-check in date and 05/05/2025-checkout date). I with family (wife and 1.5 years old) reached at hotel around 6 pm and a man in reception ( ? Barry, Manager not sure the name, the other staff says his name in his absence) welcomed me. He asked my debit card for identification purpose, I was shocked but he insisted saying that said it’s for confirmation purpose . I gave my card, he told no money will be deducted. He also said that it may show a pending transaction in my account, but no money will be deducted. But later I found out that it’s not pending transaction, he took £ 90.47 from my account. At the same night I filed a police compliant and luckily I got my money back after two days. But I emotionally stressed and worried about that money the entire two days. Second thing about the stay was that room was not maintained enough to give a proper rating to this hotel. Lift was also not working and I was struggled to go upstairs with my luggage and my 1.5 years old baby.

Consumer experience has fallen from good to poor at DOE. Reception unmanned, bar / restaurant staff untrained / inattentive. Road noise from the yokels racing around is disruptive, area not safe for wandering around, dinner was tepid as if it had been waiting at the pass for top long, unlikely to stay again.

It’s an exceptional place to stay for business or leisure, everything is provided and less than a minute walk from the train station in case you decide not to drive. Recommend any day!

Consumer experience has fallen from good to poor at DOE. Reception unmanned, bar / restaurant staff untrained / inattentive. Road noise from the yokels racing around is disruptive, area not safe for wandering around, dinner was tepid as if it had been waiting at the pass for top long, unlikely to stay again.

Return stay at the DoE. Service is spot on, too few hotels recognise the significance of personalised service... The DoE pays attentions to the small and big things that make a real difference. Bar/restaurant food is very good at dinner and breakfast. Great location near the train station and complimentary parking.

Food and breakfast receive consistent praise, and the bar’s beer selection stands out. There is an isolated complaint about a tepid dinner.

I’m a regular visitor to the town while I’m helping our son and his partner modernise a house which they’ve recently bought thst. This is a gem of a hotel which I will be staying at whenever I’m visiting from now on. Check in was very friendly and efficient. The room was lovely. Spotlessly clean and well equipped. Tea and coffee making facilities were generously stocked. The bathroom was spotless and was a good size with a nice powerful shower. The restaurant has a good variety of reasonably priced meals and an extensive selection of beers to help you unwind after a hard day. Breakfast was the same quality as everything else at the hotel and very reasonably priced. I’m looking forward to staying again when I visit again in a couple of weeks.
