Last minute booking contacted hotel to see if they could accommodate myself, husband and three children for one evening and were happy to reserve family room for us. On arrival friendly staff greated us and went that extra mile to ensure we were comfortable in family room. Room was on top floor which was not a problem for us, very... More

A wonderful hotel, we booked very late for the bank holiday and wondered what we would get, however we were very pleased. ROOMS:- we had room 17 in the old part, comfortable, all usual conveniences you would get from a hotel of this standard. Not particularly spacious but that was of no concern to us as we didn't intend to... More

We stayed for one night in late April for a wedding which was being held just down the road. We booked here because my daughter said it was number one in Barrow. It was nice, a grand Victorian building with a big car park. The rooms however were a let down. My wife and I are no longer spring chickens... More

Thank you to the guest for his feedback. The majority of our rooms are either new (built within the last 2 years) or newly decorated and re-furnished. We would welcome further comment from the guest regarding which room he stayed in so we can bear this in mind as we continue our rolling programme of refurbishment. The main hotel is... More

I must admit, I wasn't planning on staying here, but my booking agency made a mistake and booked me in. I'm mightily glad they did. The Chetwynde is everything you could want. An excellent location, very reasonable prices, gorgeous rooms (especially the new rooms in the annex), friendly staff, lovely food. In the past when visiting Barrow I've stayed out... More

Visiting Barrow on business the Chetwynde Hotel is an ideal place to stay. My wife and I stayed in a standard double room. The room was clean and spacious. The breakfast was what I expected although the beans had been reheated several times. The town centre is a steady 25mins walk from the hotel.
