From the moment you drive up to the The Whitehall Hotel Darwen, you realise that the claim to be the perfect venue for any occasion is well-founded. A majestic Victorian manor house lovingly transformed into a traditional country house hotel in Darwen.

The Whitehall Hotel, situated in Blackburn with Darwen, dates back to 1898 and enjoys many period features from the sandstone frontage to the panelled sweeping staircase, decorative ceilings and an open fire place complemented by an impressive 16 foot chandelier.

A comfortable bar and lounge area, feature original stained glass windows which look out onto the courtyard. Either sit back and relax in the Chesterfields or explore the landscaped gardens, and the woodland beyond.

The foundations of the house are as solid as the pursuit of customer care. As a privately owned hotel we pride ourselves on a professional and unobtrusive service.

MJ's Restaurant provides a contemporary dining room adjoining The Whitehall Hotel. You can enjoy vibrant mood lighting, feature fish tanks and, most impressive of all, the activity on view from an open kitchen.

In just over two years MJs Restaurant has gained an enviable reputation for quality of food and genuine hospitality.

Our award winning chefs offer the best of local produce prepared with a Mediterranean influence.

We are delighted to announce that after a recent visit from quality and tourism that MJs has been awarded the Highest Quality Assured accreditation.
