Every time I visit, I’m reminded of how welcoming the staff are. From check-in to check-out, they go above and beyond. We need more hotels with staff this friendly and accommodating!

As a solo female traveller, feeling safe is my top priority, and the Dunkenhalgh has definitely earned a spot on my "feel safe" hotels list.

Just returned from the dunkenhalgh spa afternoon. I had heard mixed reviews of the spa and being very local for some reason just never thought to visit but will definitely be going back. The grounds of the hotel and the hotel itself are lovely and I have visited before. I was welcomed to the spa by friendly professional staff with a glass of cold fruit juice which was nice on such a hot day and the bar area there was lovely and modern. Taken down to the spa and shown around - yes some of the corridors and changing areas are dated and could do with a refresh but seemed clean. Pool area is lovely. Again I had heard this was dated and it is is some ways but was clean and tidy and is a lovely area to relax with a book. The spa facilities are great! A nice big sauna and a couple of steam / aroma rooms. Well laid out and spacious. Great value for money for the afternoon. Price of hire of robes/slippers a bit steep at 7.50 but you don't have to do this and it's nice to not have to wash towels etc. A nice relaxed afternoon and will return.

Greeted with warm welcome by Sam & :Louise - Smooth check in - and despite being given clear directions - lost my way to be assisted by friendly & helpful Richard - Linen Porter

Room 103 exceeded all expectations - perfectly appointed and whilst un packing Sam came to check I was "happy" with room - Happy /- I was DELIGHTED

Pleasant time spent in Cameo Bar - Jack - Barman very attentive

Breakfast in Cameo Restaurant I consider to be on a par with same enjoyed on recent Cruise Manager Aziz - Warm , welcoming and efficient with a professional flair

Dinner was spent @ Hyndburn Business Awards Ceremony hosted by the Hotel - & They did so magnificently- special thanks to Manager Amy - presented Birthday Cake to one of my gusts with perfect timing

Firstly we got a free upgrade to a bigger room which was amazing! The spa facilities were spot on, big pool, sauna and steam. Then we had a nice meal in their restaurant in the evening which was spot on. Everyone was very friendly especially Carla who worked at their bar. Couldn't fault it

We stayed here on a spa break and we loved it. From the moment you walk into reception you are greeted with a smile and made to feel so welcome. The staff here are just lovely. Every single member of staff welcomes you and it was something was really stood out to us. The whole stay was wonderful. The spa was beautiful and our treatments were fantastic. The food in the restaurant was beautiful. The rooms were spotlessly clean. We loved everything about our stay.

Wonderful time spent here. The food is perfect, rooms spacious and so very comfy. Great nights sleep. The hotel has so much history and character. Beautifully kept and spotlessly clean. Grounds are beautiful and relaxing. The staff are so welcoming, friendly and helpful.
All in all best hotel I have ever been to.

We arrived for one night only, to find a lovely large room very clean and comfortable. All the members of staff we had contact with were friendly, helpful and made our stay even more pleasurable. The meals in the restaurant were excellent. We would definitely use this hotel again, 100%

Staff excellent. Hotel looking very tired and could do with updating. Carpets need a good clean , bathroom was clean apart from towel rail which was accumulated with dust. Rated overall stay as 4, due to staff, would I stay again probably not

I enjoyed my 1-night stay at Mercure Blackburn. Staff were friendly and professional to everyone. Special mention to Priya at the reception desk for his hospitality. Rooms were clean and spacious. The gym was well-equipped with free weights, mats, and machines for different types of training (e.g., strength, cardio, core, etc.). I feel the hotel can improve guests' gym experience by installing additional wall mirrors in the weight training areas. That way guests can inspect their form in the mirror when performing strength training exercises.

I was met by Samual (Samayela) who checked me in; he was warm, friendly and welcoming and even escorted us to our rooms to ensure all was OK.
This level of service continued throughout our stay, including in the restaurant with Aziz, who made sure we had everything we wanted - superb.

Additional friendly and efficient help was provided by Emma and Curtis, who also made sure we were well catered for on booking.

We were in the Executive rooms which were excellent; spacious and clean with a superb TV. My only criticism is there is no complimentary bottled water in the room, nor a fridge, nor a safe - I thought this strange as it was an Executive room.

However, Samual sorted water out for me immediately, again illustrating great service.

I am booking again for my next visit.

Thank you Dunkenhalgh Team.

We booked this property as a one night stop in the middle of a long journey. We booked because it looked like an old grand house and had onsite parking. We were not expecting anything flash and that was OK for the location and price point. The hotel is old and dated. However our room was spacious, clean with a king bed! What a nice surprise after some decidedly small ā€œdoubleā€ beds in the UK. Nice bathroom too. Breakfast was adequate, nothing special. All in all the stay was better than anticipated.

Absolutely Beautiful room

Spotless

Staff brilliant (reception and restaurant )

Spa pool and gym was perfect

Breakfast was great

I couldn’t fault anything to be honest

Definitely going visit this hotel again

The hotel looks just as good on the outside as it does on the inside

Room 14 was just bang on for the money
Thank you

Great place. Could have a few more options on the menu. But what they served was well cooked, and presentation A+ room was basic but had everything you would need.
