Friendly and helpful staff. Cheap parking. Great breakfast. A/C & heating was not obvious to control to heat heat and would often switch entirely off even while we were in the room. Evening food was a bit disappointing.

Excellent city centre hotel

This Holiday Inn is perfectly situated for the town centre of Barrow, and also numerous businesses nearby. It's clean, the staff are excellent and the addition of the Chromecast in every room is also a bonus when you have a long stay. My only criticism would be the coffee, and the lack of options such as a fried egg at breakfast - I appreciate the latter is because of the Express brand, but the coffee supplier should be changed.
