The Duke of Edinburgh Hotel & Bar

Then ...

Our grand old building was built in 1871 during Barrow’s “golden age”. Whilst Barrow became the world’s largest steel producing town, the Duke of Edinburgh Hotel was the most prestigious and illustrious hotel in South Cumbria attracting visitors from across the globe.

That was then… time passed…

The “proud” Duke became the “tired” Duke and slowly fell into disrepair.

In October 2006, the pile of bricks, collectively known as the Duke of Edinburgh Hotel, was bought and the refurbishment began.

Now ...

In September 2007, after twelve months of work, the doors to the hotel re-opened. The hotel accommodation is unique to Barrow in Furness offering stylishly appointed, ensuite rooms with flat screen televisions and over sized beds. Our all new Regent's Function Suite is contemporary, chic and comfortable - the perfect place for any social or work event.

To find out more about our facilities and our recently opened, ground-floor Consort Bar please browse our website further. Should you wish to book a room we have instant online room availability and booking located here.

We look forward to welcoming guests old and new to the re-established Duke of Edinburgh Hotel & Bar.
