    Minor issues; mini-fridge in the room would have been nice, and of course the old gripe about too little milk in the little cartons left in the room for tea/coffee. Would have bought proper milk, but no mini-fridge to put it in!

    Rooms were great, very clean and welcoming. Staff in bar/restaurant were great! And we got a proper bath in our room, which hardly ever happens these days (plus a super shower as well).

    Very minor niggle - soap dispenser in shower but not at sink.

    Traditional- high ceilings, oak panelling Great Wall art, well presented, good size rooms, quiet, comfortable beds. Friendly staff. Very well proportioned breakfast

    The bar area was nice good atmosphere and George the young lad who served us drinks and also checked us out at the end of our stay was lovely really pleasant and friendly

    Lovely hotel you could tell they were under staffed breakfast first morning was not impressed got lied to by the lady who was taking the orders said they didn't serve latte but minutes later saw people drinking latte she was just that run off her feet didn't have time to do it but if she had said give me 10 minutes and I will get you one that wouldn't of been a problem she kept telling people I'm on my own which is awful for her even one lady who was a customer there helped clear the tables more staff needed on a morning

    Location for me is perfect, I've got season tickets for both barrow RLFC and AFC, most of the time I travel by train, which, as you know is across the road, as I said, perfect

    I didn’t like the car park was across from the building, quite a busy road, plenty of traffic lights though, would be a problem if staying with lots of luggage/kids, but we did manage as 2 of us so one dropped off luggage and checked in and the other parked with permit.

    Beautiful building and interior, room was lovely and bathroom better than I expected.

    The property is excellently located just over the road from the train station and within walking distance of bars, restaurants and shops. The building is well maintained and rooms are comfortable and a good size. Our room benefited from air conditioning as the weekend we stayed was extremely hot. The hotel’s restaurant serves excellent food at decent prices.
