Overall Ratings & Reviews Duke Of Edinburgh Hotel

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 !!!

Great room, not much of a view but very quiet and comfortable.The shower was a bit of a letdown as it had no power but had a nice bath. Food was excellent.

Same excellent room, food and service as always. The reason I always stay at the Duke when 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.

Always enjoy staying here, when I’m in town. Never a bad stay and it’s a great location for bars n restaurants and station.

We had a lovely one-night stay for my birthday. The staff were friendly and we were given a room upgrade which was a great birthday treat. The original staircase is gorgeous and our room was spacious with a lovely en-suite. The breakfast was great too. Thank you for a lovely stay.

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

Great Reception and Bar Staff....Yasmin was very helpful and polite in swapping my room for one with a bath. Highly recommend

Great place to stay

Excellent food, really friendly staff and lovely environment. Highly recommended if you’re staying in Barrow

Property is lovely in quite a deprived area of the district.

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.

Lovely cozy place with a cozy pub and restaurant on premises

Great location, lovely atmosphere, comfortable room with giant bathroom with freestanding bath. Restaurant great too

Full of character and not feeling time an hotel.

Great stay!

Rooms are clean and tidy, large size bed with plenty room. Parking is free and easy with no issues at all. Staff and service was excellent

Beautiful room , excellent breakfast and great service

Only place we stay in Barrow-In-Furness. Staff, accommodations, parking, location, and service all spot on.

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.
