Friendly staff, great location close to trams and local attractions.
My toddler loved the pool
Disappointed in the family room was dated, the window had tape over a crack. Needed curtains to keep out the lights (not a blind). Also the shower head was held on with cable ties.
If u want to be met with HIDDEN charges then this is the place to stay! Advertised a pool no where on any of the websites does it state there’s an additional charge until after you have booked which is unfortunate if it was non refundable room. The bathroom was filthy which I cleaned myself and it was full of hair and dust. Waited over 5 minutes for someone to actually arrive at reception to check me in and zero information given other than the room number and the time of breakfast. Advertised as near the centre it is definitely closer to the north end! Paid the extra to have breakfast included which was actually ok. I feel the website does not match the building at all and it’s a complete catfish hotel that false advertises
Hotel was average as hotels go. Check in was smooth and they had a drop box for check out. The walls were paper thin so we could hear the people in the next room throwing up. Our room was basic and could have done with a lick of paint. The bathroom did not appear as if it had been cleaned at all, stains in the toilet and shower dirty. Breakfast was good and there was plenty of this along with choice, our friend who stayed at a neighbouring hotel paid £9.50 to join us, ours was included in the price. If you want to park outside the hotel it’s £6 if you pay at reception for 24 hours. If you pay using the app for NCP it’s £14.95. It’s about a 10-15 minute walk from the Blackpool Tower away from the general bustle of Blackpool.

The rooms need updating, there wasn't enough staff you had to get the receptionist to come and serve you on the bar, you had to pay £5 per person for the swimming pool for a hour we paid for parking at the hotel then when we got home a few days later was giving a penalty notice off £60 for parking in the hotel car park something isn't right so why do you have to pay twice to park on the hotel carpark.

Very basic room, not cleaned the best.. hairs on floor and dusty bathroom floor, cracks in walls. Also very noisy until late at night but thats due to other guests.. single glazed windows so can hear almost everything outside too. Dont think it was worth the £117 a night price tag to be honest but my kids enjoyed there time at the seaside and thats all that matters.
Lift was out and was on the 3rd floor 😫
Was in a triple room, but it was so cramped and nothing like the photo.
Had a sea view, but the windows were filthy.
The suite we stayed in was lovely, nice and clean with an exceptionally comfortable bed. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. I would definitely recommend.
Fantastic hotel, pool was great. We had a lovely time.

After visiting the property several times in the past you could really see it deteriorating this time and sadly we won’t be returning. The lady on reception was really nice and accommodating and tried her best to cover all stations she was left to deal with.
