Rundown hotel
The hotel had scaffolding round it which on first impressions we thought they were updating the hotel. It turned out it was there just for the roof. Our room was on the 2nd floor and the handrail up the 2nd flight of stairs was loose, our room was was obviously a single at one time and a double bed and extra single wardrobe had been put in, we couldn't access the bed from both sides.I had to move the bed to access the double plug socket. The bed was comfy though. Parking is on the road and is very limited although it is free if you can find a space. Breakfast, choice of cereal,fruit, croissants or a self service "cooked breakfast" the first morning everything was cold, sausage,bacon,beans and tomatoes the toast had obviously been toasted for some time as it was also cold when he brought it to us 1 minute after us ordering it. We arrived for the breakfast at 07.50 (breakfast is between 07.30 and 09.30) so we weren't long after the start. The 2nd morning we got there at 07.35, the sausages were very hot but once again the bacon,beans and tomatoes were cold as was my wife's toast. I got bread and butter so ended up having a sausage sandwich. There was only scrambled eggs available and neither of us had them so don't know if they were hot or cold. This is a very cheap rundown hotel and we would never stay here again or recommend it to anyone. The staff were friendly though. Best thing about it is the lovely Indian restaurant right next door to the hotel.

Had a call the day before - I was moved ("upgraded") to sister hotel the Strathmore, due to unforeseen circumstances. All good - a bit further from chippies, shops etc but lovely hotel, fantastic sea view, super helpful staff.

The hotel is under refurbishment so that is reflected in the cheep price. It was very clean and staff were fantasic. It is very unique in the layout of the corridors and bedrooms, but you are made aware of any hazards on your journey to your room. Breakfast had plenty of choice 😋 if you couldn't find something to eat you are a picky eater. There was only two accessible plugs in the bedroom main one for the tv and the other for the kettle, we had to switch out to charge our phones. The window didn’t open which was a shame but we were provided with a plug in fan. The bathroom was usable the shower was a bit rickety but did the job. I would stay again great for a cheep getaway. The bed was comfortable and sheets were fresh.

Lovely hotel and great location with free on street parking (can be busy but we found a spot). Gorgeous room overlooking the sea. Some building work taking place but did not affect our stay. Very welcoming staff. Clean room. Good breakfast. Would come and stay again

Short break
Staff were attentive, bed and towels were good, the hotel at present is undergoing repairs so looks like a building site with scaffolding front and rear. Rooms are very dated with a distinct lack of modern equipment IE usb ports, smart TV, Wi-Fi was adequate. The cooked part of breakfast is poor, all other items were okay. But at the end of the day it’s cheap and cheerful you get what you pay for. Parking is first come first served, transport is on the door step. All shops within walking distance. The whole of Morcambe is in need of a regeneration.

Excellent value for money
Initial impression was dubious. The locale was scruffy and the decor was in need of updating. The room was small and furnishings were very basic (looked like MFI stock) but seemed clean. The room was very cheap so it was what I expected. However, the bed was comfy, there wasn't any undue noise during the night (other than the gulls) and everything was very clean (the bathroom was spotless). The breakfast, included in the price, was good (although fried eggs would have been nice (only scrambled available)). Overall, an excellent value for money stay.

Thanks to the people on reception at the Clifton
We are unable to do a review of the Clifton Hotel as when we arrived, we were informed that our room was still in the care of the builders and we were being transferred to the Strathmore Hotel, belonging to the same company and also on Morecombe sea front as we wished for. However, the person on reception could not have been more helpful, arranging for refreshments while he went to collect his car to take us to the other hotel. He also came back the next day to transport us to Heysham ferry terminal at no charge. We were also very satisfied with our stay at the Strathmore.

1 night. Service and breakfast was very good. Beware there are large steps into building and if you are elderly and have a heavy case thus could be a problem. Overall i rate thie accommodation as good value gor the money that i paid.

Lovely first visit
First time I'd stayed at the Clifton and it was a lovely stay. Lovely welcome, lovely view across the bay from my bed, and nice and clean and comfortable. Would have liked a little lamp in my room instead of the big light, and the bathroom fan didnt work but other than that it was lovely. Breakfast was self service and it was lovely, the sausages were MASSIVE and the waiter brought coffee or tea as required. Would i stay again ? Yes, most definitely. I'm a Morecambe FC season ticket holder from Yorkshire and will need regular stayovers from August onwards

Great view
I booked 1 night as a stopover on our way north and wishes we’d booked longer . When we drove past and I saw the scaffolding and boarding I thought it’s only one night. However once we got through the front door everything changed. We were greeted with a warm friendly welcome and shown to our room ,even having help to carry our case up. The room was beautiful decorated and had a seaview. There was a table and chairs in the window where we sat and watched the world go by. The en-suite was very clean and had soap, shower gel and fluffy white towels. Once we were settled in we went for a walk along the promenade, the views across the bay were stunning. Back to the hotel after a lovely meal at the nearby bowling, Italian restaurant, we watched the sunset over the bay. In the morning we got up after having a very comfortable nights sleep and had a very good breakfast. There was plenty of choice which was all self service. We will be back and staying longer next time .it just shows you should never judge a book by its cover. The scaffolding didn’t stop our enjoyment. We’re looking forward to seeing the building when it’s finished. Thank you everyone at the Clifton, you made our stay very happy

Came for a cheap n cheerful overnight stay at the seaside. Plus notes, room very clean and bed seemed reasonably new and the bed, bedding and towels were good and once people had gone to bed it was pretty quiet The big let down was that the shower only dribbled out either freezing cold or absolutely scorching skin melting hot water and nothing in between. Tried to have a shower first evening which was not good, then the next morning it was just freezing cold water so we ended up having a wash and washing hair in the low sink, also no bathmat provided. The breakfast was very disappointing, yes cheap ingredients and you get what you pay for, but I do at least expect items to be hot, the cooked items were lukewarm and congealed. Took my own oat milk in a thermos as dietary requirements not catered for. Also check in was a bit odd standing sweating with heavy bags whilst the guy complained about Expedia. I can see now why we could not find this place on Trip Advisor!
