愛丁堡公爵飯店&酒吧

Wonderful stay at this very antique clean hotel! It was so convenient as it’s just by the train station and there is a Tesco express in front of the hotel. So lovely they have complementary tea/coffee as well as some hot chocolate and small snacks too. We were able to check-in a bit earlier than the check-in time so we really appreciate the flexibility of reception stuffs. The food at downstairs bar was also lovely. We didn’t have to go outside we they had bar with selection of food. If we ever come to Barrow we will definitely stay here again!

Goods stay

Better book other nearby hotels 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.

The biggest disappointment was that children were not allowed in the pool later in the afternoon or evening; the exact time one would come back to the hotel to swim after a day of sightseeing! Huge disappointment as the pool was the only reason I booked so far from the old town.

The hotel was a great experience. All the staff from reception to bar to waiting to breakfast service were friendly helpful and professional. They reall made a difference- thank you. We will definitely stay here again
