"Just back from staying a couple of nights at the Duke and the service was excellent ... Staff were very polite and helpful. Room was exactly as described and was really good. Breakfast was made to order and the evening meal was reasonably priced and very tasty, could not fault in any way. There was entertainment in the hotel but this did not disrupt my sleep in anyway ....they play in the vault. I would go back for sure."

"We booked after reading many very good reviews on Tripadvisor .... and we were not disapppointed!
The owners have worked very hard to renovate the hotel building to a high standard and the care they have taken is evident throughout, whether decor, quality of fittings, pictues and floral displays in corridors and public spaces, the informative web site and a courteous, helpful welcome from reception on arrival.Our room & bathroom was spotlessly clean.
We enjoyed breakfast! Self service juice, grapefrut segments cereals, yogurt etc but the main breakfast freshly-prepared and delicious, served promptly by charming staff. Also, an excellent range of breakfast options, including vegetarian.The management make every effort to ensure the comfort and satisfaction of their guests their staff obviously enjoy their work and the feedback they get from visitors.We will certainly return when next in Barrow.

"It was great to land at this hotel after 8 hours driving from the South. Excellent in all respects. As a vegan, I found the kitchen very accommodating, making me the best porrage I have had for a long time. Very friendly, but unpretentious staff and cosy, clear accommodation. "

"I had read previous reviews so felt confident in our choice. However when we stepped into our room I felt very happy with our choice. The room was above my expectations and very clean. Despite our room being near to a road and the hotel having a bar we had a very quiet and comfortable night sleep. On our next trip to Barrow we would certainly use this hotel again. I would suggest staying in this hotel to anyone. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. "
